Wii Video Playback

man of poor reputation
So i was quite surprised when i saw that the Wii is able to play Videos from the SD card out of the Box. But none of my files were supported by the Wii, i tried both .avi and .mov files.

So, which codec do i have to use for videos on the Wii (also known as Wiideos)?
 
the mjpeg videos of my digital cam played right out of the box, didnt try anything else yet.
 
Mjpeg AVI + MOV

It's basically those short clips you can take with a digital camera.

Ok, got it working. But the sound doesn´t play. Which audio codec do i need?

I think it would be mp3 audio... not sure though.

I didnt really expect the video playback, but it is kinda cool. Im hoping in the future they allow you to fast forward and such through a video.
 
Yeah, PCM does the trick. But its really strange it doesn´t support other codecs...

Thank you all for your advice :)
