Wiitch is a Batch Downloader for the Wii that reads a list of URLs from a text file and downloads them to the selected device.

Key Features

• Ability to save downloaded files to an SD or USB device.
• Simulation of file writing using the Wii front light.
• Option to turn off the Wii when the job is complete or to alert the user with flashing LED.
• Customization of background image by replacing "background.png" in the Wiitchdl folder.

Controls

Button	Action
Wiimote DPad	Move Left/Right
Wiimote A Button	Select
Wiimote Home Button	Quit/Stop

Installation

1. Unzip Wiitch to SD Card (do not rename wiitchdl folder).
2. If not exists in the selected device it creates a "Downloads" folder where the files will be downloaded to.
3. Put a text file called DLList.txt in wiitchdl folder.
4. DLList.txt must contains one URL per line (see Notes section for example).

Usage

1. Start Wiitch from HBC.
2. Select where to save files, and press Wiimote A Button.
3. Select if the Wii must shutdown when download complete or wait for user, and press Wiimote A Button.
4. Wii start downloading files reporting the download status.
5. Downloaded files can be found in \Downloads folder in the selected device.

Future Plans

• Add SMB read of DLList.txt
• Add SMB save support
• Add USB NTFS save support (...is ntfs writing possible???)
• Better GUI (maybe LibWiiGUI)
• Sounds??
• ....

Notes

• Supports only http protocol downloads and direct link to files (eg. "")
• USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!! I hold no responsibility in the case of SD/USB corruption or any other problems!
• Hope someone found this piece of software useful.
