Are any of you Wii owners aware that you can stream music using your console? Well, if you're interested, try this neat application, the Wiisic v0.80. Developed by homebrew specialist, Max Maurer, Wiisic, enables you to stream music using your Wii, all you need to run it is Java installed on your PC and the Wii's Opera Browser. This is version 0.80 of Wiisic and since its launch back in January, the app has made a dramatic transformation. Check out the version history below.

Version history
Upcoming 0.81
- New feature: Photo slideshow
0.80
Since I got my new 16:9 LCD screen last week. I concluded, do work again on Wiisic. I spent the last three days, rewriting the complete player code. Now the whole application should be hopefully "uncrashable".
- New feature: Directory navigator. Navigate through all subdirectories of the folder you specified and play the files in there.
- Complete new player code. Hopefully "uncrashable".
- 16:9 white player skin.
0.79
- Commandline interface. For those unix-server freaks, with no graphics at all. Use "java -jar Wiisic.jar -?" for options.
- I received a new Icon File from cubedman990. For those of you who want to create a link to their Wiisic jar file, download it here.
0.78
- Icon added: The java cup is gone! Wiisic now has it's on application icon (launch it and look in the upper left corner). Big Thanks goes out to DeadMeat_84, who created it.
- Network error fixed: Another error on network adaptors should now be fixed. The Mac-Adress problem from Version 0.76 reappeared.
0.77
- Network error fixed: The last fixed created the same problem on unix computers. Advanced IP checking is performed now.
0.76
- Network error fixed: The correct IP of the selected network device was not used by Wiisic
- Network error fixed: Instead of an IP-Adress Mac adresses have been displayed on Mac Computers
0.75
- Users with multiple network interfaces, can now select on which of them Wiisic should be installed (experts option)
- The folder chooser has been completly rewritten (saves 50 K, and should run on Vista, XP, MacOS and Linux now) (Testreports appreciated)
0.74
- Added a "Black Player"
- Wiisic settings like shuffle mode or the selected folder are automatically saved
- The playlist now shows the filename if no artist and title is present
0.73
- Reenabled streaming funtionality, so songs start playing much faster.
- Change the file loading procedure for better Opera browser support.
0.72
- Changes to the player disable multiple file load. This should protect from Opera crashes and Wii freezes.
