Download the movie to your PC. It should be noted that downloading movies, or "ripping" content from studios without paying for them through a legitimate site (like itunes.com) is a crime. You can be prosecuted and face a stiff fine and jail time. However, assuming you rightfully paying for the files, download them.Convert into the correct format. In order for you to play movies on your Nintendo Wii, they must be in one of the following formats: DivX, Avi, MPG or MOV. (Some files may already be in these formats.) If not, download "Virtual Dub" (by searching in your favorite search engine). It's free and it will make sure your files are in the correct format.Insert SD Card. Place the SD card into your computer and save the video file (which should now be in the correct format) on the SD card.
Hey thanks for sharing such a useful information. I think how to watch Movies on Nintendo Wii. I try it so many times but I fail every-time. Using your tips now I saw the movies on Nintendo Wii.

Hey......As the idea of watching movies on your Wii? Thus you can find this guide helpful. While the Wii will not read DVD and limited support for movie formats AVI, MPEG, you can convert your DVD (and other videos you have) to a file format that can be played on Wii.

Yes, that is if the type of file and type of media player are compatible with the Wii's settings.You can convert videos into wii format search for wiivideo9 then put on sd card go to photo channel and view movie.This really depends on the file-types you can use for quality and size, if you can use mpeg4 than 2 gb will be more than enough especially if you don't want the extra crap, and for the time to decode dvd it depends on the speed of the dvd player and the software you use.
