Homebrew Channel 1.0

homebrewchannel

Team Twiizers has updated the Homebrew Channel to 1.0.

This update finally brings the channel to a non-beta stage
This is also expected to be the last release for a while now, as the team has shifted focus to other things.

Some bugs have been fixed and some minor features added (as requested in hackmii comments).

Notable changes include:
- Improved controller support (CC, Nunchuk, GH3)
- Video width is fixed (wider) for those tvs that experience ”black bars”.

Find the full changelog below:

- meta.xml now handles all ISO-8859-1 characters properly (you can use either UTF-8 or ISO-8859-1 encoding, but UTF-8 is restricted to the ISO subset)
- Wiimote power button support (shutdown)
- Wiimote rumble honors system setting
- Fixed some crash bugs
- Fix meta.xml UNIX style newline regression
- All wiimotes work now, not just the first one (only one can point at a time though)

- Nunchuk support (scroll only, using the stick)
- Guitar Hero 3 guitar support
- Left and right change pages too
- Hit 1 on Wiimote to retry the network connection (like clicking on the network icon or Z on the GC pad)

- Pushed in some text to avoid overscan crop
- Widened video width to match system menu (”black bars” fix)
