GCDual - Do I need a CH341A programmer to update?

[sofakng]

I'm looking to update my GCDual and my WiiDual to the latest firmwares.

Do I still need a CH341A programmer?

Also, which file(s) would I need to flash from the Github page?

I'm assuming [gcvideo-3.0e-dual-gc.zip] for the GCDual and [gcvideo-3.0e-dual-wii.zip] for the WiiDual?

However, I also see [updater-3.0e-gc.dol] and [updater-3.0e-wii.zip] files?

EDIT: Hmmm, it looks like Dan also has files on his website? http://dansprojects.com/firmware/GCDual/

You need a CH341A programmer if you are on an old version (I think pre-3.0) of the firmware. Once you are already on 3.0 or later, you can update by running a DOL file instead.

Unfortunately Dan's documentation on firmware is quite lacking, and he doesn't make it clear anywhere on his website why he has a different line of firmwares separate from the official GCVideo firmwares, nor does he provide changelogs or anything. Unless you wanna track down his comments on message boards. I don't think his version numbers are quite in sync with ikorb's either... I'm using Dan's firmwares though, I figured that would make the most sense given that they're designed specifically for his boards.
