Okey dokey...quickie Wii/Internet question. So my DVR screwed up Lost last night, as noted below. Plus, - Jim Feb 5, 05:44 14
- No. The Wii, like most non-PC devices, lacks Flash 9 support. It's not hard to add TV-out support to a PC - oblique, eighth best slackertalker Feb 5, 05:59 2
  - yeah, it only has flash 7 support so a lot of stuff won't play -- nm - decline Feb 5, 06:02 1
    - We took our Wii on vacation and I tried lots of things. Orb seems very promising but I really needed to bring my own WiFi router - oblique, eighth best slackertalker Feb 5, 06:04
- The wii will play limited flash video (I've gotten a couple youtube videos to play) - decline Feb 5, 05:48 5
  - I think it mainly needs Flash 9 support. There were rumors of a browser update a few months ago, but nothing happened. -- nm - Inigo Feb 5, 05:57
  - iirc, after I tried the below site, I tried Break.com or YouTube and could get one but not the other. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 5, 05:50 3
    - the Wii is good wholesome entertainment. It will not be soiled by the like of your nasty pron! -- nm - decline Feb 5, 05:55 2
      - Good thing he has me! -- nm - Dirty Sexy Compaq Feb 5, 05:57 1
        
        *sigh* If only he did the little things right. -- nm - Rice Feb 5, 05:58
- I haven't tried. I think I tried to access YouPorn.com once on the Wii - just to see if I could - and the videos wouldn't play. - JaxSean Feb 5, 05:46 3
  - Well, I'm trying it tonight...just thought I'd see if anyone else had tried it yet. - Jim Feb 5, 05:48 2
    - You could try Orb. It will stream media from your PC to the Wii and has some support for Internet sites - oblique, eighth best slackertalker Feb 5, 06:00 1
      - I used that awhile back to see how streaming .avis from the PC worked. It was like watching a garbage VHS tape. -- nm - Shaun Feb 5, 06:03
- I have no idea, but I don't see why not. the wii browser seems to work like any other. -- nm - mafic Feb 5, 05:45
