Music player for the Wii. It has a nice interface and is skinnable. It plays mp3, ogg and other formats but does not work with wma, aac or flac. It is a native Wii application (no Wii Linux) with the intent of being a multi-source media player on the Wii.

DragonMedia Player will pick up files anywhere on your SD card, and plays sequentially once a file has started. Simply install into the HBC by copying the dmp folder in the zip file to /apps/ and run the program. Do not rename the folder as DragonMedia Player expects things to be in the correct order to function. For the changelog, please look inside either the source or the binary zip file.

Changes:

Added sid playback support.
Added snd/sndh/sc68 playback support.
Added language file support.
Tweaked a few things to refine more.
Fixed memory leak in emulated support.
Location in filebrowser is preserved when browsing to subfolders.

Drunken Coders got this on their page earlier this week.

ZodTTD has posted some work in progress news about his VLC port to the iPhone.

Quote:

While being a bit sick with a bad cold for the past week, I decided to get some work done on vlc4iphone. I have just released vlc4iphone v0.9.8 for firmware 2.0+ to beta testers.

vlc4iphone is a port of VLC to the iPhone and iPod Touch. It is a media player application that supports a wide variety of codecs, such as DivX/XviD, MP3, OGG, FLAC, MOV, WMV, FLV, etc. as well as streaming video and audio via HTTP, MMS, and (experimental) RTSP.

What’s new in this version:
– Now runs on firmware 2.0+.
– Improved user interface.
– Tons of bug fixes.
– Added experimental support for RTSP streaming.
– Improved playback performance in some decoders such as DivX/XviD.

Things to be aware of in this beta:
– For some users there seems to be some issues with volume in this release. Either volume can’t be changed, or there is a complete lack of volume. This is a high priority bug and I’m looking into it.

Once I iron out these last bugs, a public 1.0.0 release will be made.

Thanks,
ZodTTD

Two new stages for AmplituDS are now available. AmplituDS is based on the gameplay of Amplitude for the PlayStation 2.

Release notes:

Yes, that’s right. Two people have been hard at work to give you two new stages to play with, alongside the three new ones AmplituDS v4 already brought! So that brings up the total to…… umm…. count the one …. FIVE new stages for the fourth version of AmplituDS. Awesome.
