HW_AHBPROT support

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. See http://www.wiibrew.org/wiki/Homebrew\_Channel\#Optional\_meta.xml\_XML\_nodes
