Steps to reproduce:

  1. Prepare Mania to run on a PAL Wii
  2. Connect the Wii to a TV via RGB
  3. Start Mania
  4. Screen will now have a red tint:

This usually happens when a PAL Wii tries to display NTSC over RGB. Afaik, it tries to output some kind of broken S-Video signal, since NTSC on Wii does not support RGB. I didn't test this with RSDKv5-Decompilation specifically, but it should work correctly when using a composite cable, provided the TV supports NTSC.

It would be even better if there was a 288p mode, so the NTSC video would not be stretched on PAL TVs, but I don't know how flexible the resolutions and refresh rates are and if that's even possible.

This should potentially be fixed by https://github.com/Mefiresu/RSDKv5-Decompilation/commit/b787a6e0b7ce1616b63c3b542c8270990f555f6b, however there hasn't been any new release with this fix (you'll have to manually build the game to test it).
