HW_AHBPROT support #117

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Is it possible to add HW_AHBPROT flags to Genesis plus? I'm asking this 
because now that DVDX has gone it seems that unless you installed it previously 
there is no way to read roms from a DVD. It also doesn't help when you want to 
update becuase you would lose that function.

It's not something that you "add" to Genesis Plus, HW_AHBPROT flags are added 
to a channel descriptor, for example the Homebrew Channel (HBC). 

There are actually 2 things needed for DVD support in homebrew application:

1) application sourcecode need to be compiled with recent libogc (to prevent 
IOS reload when the application starts and to take benefits of current DI 
low-level access changes). See 
http://code.google.com/p/genplus-gx/wiki/Compiling

2) meta.xml (in the same directory where genesis plus boot.dol is located) need 
to be modified so that HBC does not reload IOS when loading the application.
