RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - bossanova808 - 2021-06-16

v2.0.1 with fixes for BOM stations with missing data submitted to the Kodi Gods.


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - DavidFW1960 - 2021-06-17

Well I've been away a week so only just grabbed the upgrade.

Getting an error on a couple of stations log here https://codeshare.io/oQP8ZY but I expect it's the same error you already fixed.

Re the skin files... can you make the menu item for Next Location/ABC Weather a bit more noticeable? it's very hard to see which option is highlighted. Also there is no summary forecast on the main screen before you tap on weather? Previously there were icons for 6 days with min/max shown but that is blank now?


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - bossanova808 - 2021-06-17

Yes those in your logs are the error fixed by that above (v2.0.1).

I couldn't work out how to change the buttons in a consistent way that works across skins - they look great on all the other supported skins, except for Estuary.  I have some work to do looking at Aeon type skins, so I will maybe put together some custom buttons for Estuary.  That skin is an ugly pain in the butt.

And I have just now fixed the bug stopping you from seeing the main screen summary.  It's now in 2.0.1 as well, which you can grab off github if you want - https://github.com/bossanova808/weather.ozweather - it might take a few days before the Kodi folks get there, things are sluggish on that front clearly.

Ok I just downloaded the patched files from github and it seems to be working now. Thanks.

(also, how do you refresh the current weather location on Estuary?  Other skins have a button, but Estuary doesn't?)

(don't worry about your seekbar/videofullscreen for now, you can add that back later...this is just to test the main stuff!).

& report back -> any issues-> full debug log please!
Bloody hell!!!! You're right! I didn't get any notifications for this. So sorry - I didn't see till last night that Kodi had version 2 now. Sorry mate. Any I thought you had nigeled me till I read back lol!!!!

You pretty much can't. I just cycle round the locations.

The problem with next location/ABC weather is that it's now just a line through the text which would be OK if the line was thicker and maybe in red?

I'll grab the latest patch to fix the icons......

Just grabbed forecasy.py but I still am not seeing main screen summary?
EDIT: Scratch that - they eventually showed up


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - bossanova808 - 2021-06-17

Yep, I've seen it, it's just annoying that all the other skins can share the same code and look ok. 

If I do do custom buttons for Estuary (not sure yet what is best approach, maybe I can work out a way to use the common code, which is ideal...) - I will add a refresh in there too maybe.


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - bossanova808 - 2021-06-17

You would need to refresh your location to see it


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - DavidFW1960 - 2021-06-17

Even just changing the line colour and making it thicker would suffice....


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - bossanova808 - 2021-06-17

Will probably have to wait to the weekend, sorry...

No rush mate.


RE: OzWeather - Australian Weather Addon using BOM data inc. animated radar support - bossanova808 - 2021-06-17

Apparently I can't help myself.....Skin Patcher v0.1.6 released with shiny new buttons for Estuary.   Install (from my repo) and run it...

(I'd prefer them to sit closer together but some Estuary thing is making the gap and it all works, so this will do for now!).
