Homebrew Channel

Register

Does anybody use the Homebrew Channel?

I have it but hardly use it, although some good stuff has come out on it.
It has Media players, emulators, homebrew games, ported games like quake and doom, and a whole load of other applications.

What do you do with yours?

I use mine for games and tried to use the dvd player but it keeps freezes up on me.

HBC beta 9 has been released, it has a few upgrades.

Beta 9

* Installer / updater now works with the October 23 update
* SDHC support
* REALLY fixed the memcard bug
* Installer now picks newest sane IOS, fixes some beta8 regressions
* Added a reload button (for SD card changes)
* Return to system menu skips warning
* Fixed some graphical glitches
* Compliant ELF loading code
* Saner XML load code
* Many fixes to underlying stuff in the newer libogc

So a few things are good like the SD reloader. and the return to the system menu without seeing the 'Press A' warning screen.
But it also stops some .elf files working. To combat this you can use a program that will turn .elf to .dol files which will run. The homebrew team have said this will be fixed on the next update though.

And the next update looks like it may be last for the homebrew channel...

Taken from HackMii- 'HBC beta10, aka your last chance

As you all know, we’re getting busy with several other projects, and HBC isn’t a priority. However, the beta9 release had a few rough edges, and some things that should have been fixed weren’t.

So we’re giving you the chance to voice your pet peeves about HBC now, and we’ll release a new version soon. Consider this version “final” at least for the time being. HBC is basically feature-complete, so we won’t be adding any new major features, but we want to get rid of some remaining bugs and annoyances. Once this new version is out, you’re going to be stuck with it for a while.

Things that we’ve already fixed/added for beta10:

* meta.xml now handles non-ASCII characters properly (you can use iso-8859-1 or utf-8 encoding, but utf-8 is restricted to the iso-8859-1 subset)
* Wiimote shutdown support (in libogc git now - we should have added this earlier)
* Wiimote rumble now honors the rumble setting
* A crash bug or two (hard to hit)

Post a comment if you want something fixed. We reserve the right to fix whatever we want and ignore the rest, but at least we promise we’ll listen. Please read the comments before asking for something; we don’t want 20 people mentioning the same thing.

Guys, NO BIG NEW FEATURES. Don’t even think about integrating other apps, or adding disc loading, or anything like that. We’re talking about small fixes like honoring some setting or adding some minor controller support. Classic controller support is plausible. Fixing some graphical problem is doable. Integrating FTPii isn’t. Sound isn’t. I’m deleting totally implausible posts to keep things sane.

Speak Up Now Or Forever Hold Your Peace.'

i've never even heard of this, it is actually on the Shop Channel, or some download not from nintendo' shop channel?
