*UPDATE* Latest Wii update now available with official changelog

Wii Menu - Image 1Attention all Nintendo Wii owners! The latest system update for your game console is up and ready for download. As expected,  it gives users the ability to give downloaded Virtual Console games as gifts for friends.

Not a whole lot has been noticeable in terms of changes. We'll go mess around with our unit until the changelog hits town.

One note, though. Some people from the NeoGAF forums are claiming that updating the Photo Channel will render you unable to play your MP3 files, so be careful. The complete changelog isn't out just yet so stay with us for the update.

UPDATE: The official website of Nintendo has finally been updated with a changelog for the latest firmware that went live just a couple of hours ago. The changes are as follows:
  • Gift Feature in Wii Shop Channel: What do you give the Wii Friend who has everything? How about a Virtual Console game or WiiWare software! With this new feature of the Wii Shop Channel, you can now spend your Wii Shop points on a Wii Shop item that you can have sent to a friend.
  • Photo Channel 1.1: Personalize the Photo Channel icon on your Wii menu, and replace MP3 music file support for AAC compatibility
The second one, now, provides the explanation why Nintendo Wii owners who downloaded the update couldn't play their MP3 files.

reencoding makes it sound worse unless you have a lossless source (like the CD).



It won't sound better

aac format is a better format and converting it to that does not i repeat does not degrade the sound the crator of the mp3 format said "the AAC is the true Successor to MP3"

# AAC is Betterdemondirk 2007-12-12 06:15
Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is a standardized, lossy compression and encoding scheme for digital audio. AAC is promoted as the successor to the MP3 format by MP3%u2019s creator, Fraunhofer IIS.



anymore question if this isn't it enough here more



AAC achieves better sound quality than MP3 at the same bitrate

# You can "downgrade"jmazouri 2007-12-15 20:25
Just delete the photo channel in Wii Settings>Data Management>Channels, and it'll be reverted back to the original. That is, if you got your wii before December of this year.
