Disc Channel

This channel allows the user to launch Wii or GameCube games from the disc drive of the Wii.

There are two methods to "insert" a disc. To set the Default ISO, you can either right click a game in the Game List and select "Set as default ISO"; or you can set it in Config -> Paths -> Default ISO. Alternatively, you can insert a disc while a game/Wii menu is running with "Change Disc", located in File -> Change Disc or by right-clicking a game in the game list.

Problems
{{Problems|

Savestates/GameINIs/Cheats Do Not Work
Due to how Dolphin works, Dolphin only recognizes the first thing loaded as the game that is being played. For example, if you load Super Smash Bros. Brawl from the Game List, and use the home menu to go to the Wii Menu, then change disc and load Xenoblade Chronicles, the game settings from the GameINI, cheats, and even any savestates you make will be for Brawl and not Xenoblade. There is no solution at this time.

GameCube Games Do Not Load
Disc Channel can recognize GameCube games but launching them with the Disc Channel is not possible at this time due to the complexities of the Starlet coprocessor and the Wii's GameCube Mode (MIOS).
