Thumbs up Wiizard First Impressions and Testing Results

Got the stock in today, and had time to mod a few. So far after the preliminary test, I can report:
Gamecube import backups: worked fine
Gamecube domestic backups: worked fine and no audio problems
Gamecube originals: fine

Wii import backups: fine
Wii domestic backups: fine
Wii originals: fine

Also noticed no eject problems so far, although I would rather run more extensive tests to confirm it is not happening. I have done the following briefly to confirm:
1) insert/eject 10 times, read disc every time
2) start game, play, exit to channel menu, eject disc, load another, play, no problem
3) start console with no disc in drive, power on, insert disc, no problem

So far it is looking good, as normally #2 resulted in the eject error with some d2pro9 installs.

I did the above with a d2c2, as well as a dms chipset, and did just basic testing with a d2c.

Anyone find any issues or problems to report so I can test? So far I am pleased, and the install is easy, just wish the jumpers didnt need to be set, although not a big deal.

If this eliminates the eject error and works flawlessly, I think I may like this more than the d2pro9 right now. I will need to test more installs to see if there are any bugs though, as even the d2pro9 bugs are not evident in every install, and I only had time to briefly test.

Please post any other results!

UPDATE: Wiizard is now shipping with alternate clk points - these chips will work fine on all Wii's, but have random problems (they either work or they don't, period, no matter how you set jumpers and clk) with d2e chipsets.

Ran a few more tests on d2c2 chipsets, still no issues found. If anyone has some weird situations or discs they want me to try let me know, I will be doing more tonight most likely.

Do audio stream backup games work perfectly, like Ikaruga and Eternal Darkness?

Will get Eternal Darkness and report back, seems a lot of people are curious about this with various mods.

Well, it may be just me...
But still, it's an important feature for a chip to have!
