This channel allows the user to launch games from the disk drive of the Wii. They may be either Wii games or GameCube games. Ideally, this channel in Dolphin would allow for the launch of the default ISO currently selected in Config => Paths.
Problems
Unknown ISO
Launching a Wii ISO, pressing the Home button, selecting "Wii Menu" and selecting "Yes" to the "Return to Wii Menu?" dialog works correctly, provided a Wii System Menu is currently installed. Although, some revisions may give the following error if the "Use Panic Handlers" are on: "Unknown pointer 0xffffffff Continue?". However, Dolphin doesn't fully emulate the Device_ES functions, so the Disc Channel will show the message below if a GameCube ISO is set as the default ISO in Dolphin settings, or if you start the Wii Menu and use the "Change Disc" option under the File menu in Dolphin to select a Wii ISO whose region does not match the installed Wii System Menu.
Configuration
This channel does not need non-default settings to run properly.
