    Anyone using this to watch movies on the wii?? I like it because I can watch all my torrent and usenet movies off my sd card and dont have to convert them to dvd and burn on disc. My Q? is has anyone used a usb hard drive to view the movies? I wanted to get a small one to keep hooked to the wii and I could keep several movies instead of just one or two on the sd card. If this is a good method what hard drive brands work with the wii usb?

    What I did was buy a cable from amazon that connects to my laptop's s-video and headphone ports and converts them to RCA (thats the yellow, white and red plugs same as the wii uses) and just watch my movies that way.
