feature request (I haven't looked at the code, so this maybe how it works already): if there are weather alerts, make that tab open by default.

If alerts exist, obviously that is important and I want to see them first.


- Nuka1195 - 2009-01-03

rwparris, the way it is now, set the alerts tab as default, if there are no alerts it will open the maps tab.

but maybe an option to open alerts if there are any, that way you don't lose your default view. yes i think i like this better.

This fixes the Northwest Europe Satellite, not the United Kingdom Satellite.

-fixed: download static image for maps that have a bogus weather in motion link. (does NOT fix those maps with really old maps, eg. United Kingdom Satellite)

I need to learn how to read I guess. Wink

Nuka, the link i pointed you to was a static image for the UK, here is another Weather in Motion link for the UK & Europe that is up to date, but it is a Temperature map. Even so, maybe substitute the old UK one for this:

http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/businesstraveler/map/UKXX0153?mapregion=europesat_720x486&showanimation=yes&bypassredirect=true


- Nuka1195 - 2009-01-04

i won't substitute one map for another. that map is listed in the list of maps, so just choose that one.

maybe you can email weather.com with the link of the old maps, they may fix it.

any elite hackers with wireshark that would like to contribute. i'm trying to find the actual video links to weather.com videos. i thought i did, but they don't play. they may not play in xbmc, i don't know.

this page
http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/businesstraveler/local/USMI0405?from=recentsearch

has this starting link
http://www.weather.com/multimedia/videoplayer.html?clip=360&collection=regwxforecast&from=36hr_bottomnav_business

thanks for anyone who trys

Hello,

I have finally instaled latest version of xbmc and I get twc working. Just a question:

I've selected metric units in settings tab, but I see at least non metric units in 10 days tab. Is anyone else having the same trouble?

Thanks


- Nuka1195 - 2009-01-08

the metric/english works fine here. weather.com does not appear to convert the outlook text. but 10-day works.

* Note a very recent build is needed for this to work properly. when the video plays. you don't have full functionallity. it's because by default the script is a dialog. you can stop the video though, unless you use a mouse. then you're stuck. also weather.com only seems to have us videos, so it is only enabled for cities code that starts with "US"

-changed: version -> 1.4.3
-changed: english language strings
-added: videos to US cities. (button on 36 hour tab, weather.com appears to only have US videos?)
-changed: default skin, added video button, now uses SetProperty() for focused slider and <onunfocus> to reset it

Thanks Nuka,

You are right. I've been using an older version. It works fine except for outlook text.

Thanks again.

Does anyone have the code to have the Aeon skin replace the normal weather with this one in the scroller?


- Shuey - 2009-01-18

This is hot Nuka! Thanks man Smile. I tried running the current TWC at first and discovered that my xbmc build may not be AS up to date as other people are using, so I followed the info in this thread on using the older rev. 1.2 is working great *thumbs up*

Thanks again Wink


- Shuey - 2009-01-18

I'm still fairly new to everything xbmc, so forgive me if this question is stupid: In "skin settings", there is a scripts section. And there is a "enable quick launch script button for weather". I have turned this option on and set the script path to "C:\Program Files\XBMC\scripts\TWC Supplemental - 1.2\default.py". I was assuming that this would make my "weather" button on the home menu run the script instead of its default, but this isn't happening. Can someone explain what the quick launch function is and tell me if I'm on the right/wrong track? =\

Thank you in advance Smile


- rwparris2 - 2009-01-18

It just adds a button to the weather screen. So now on the left you have "location" "refresh" "<TWC Supplemental>" "Settings".


- Shuey - 2009-01-18

I never gave the label a name, so it wasn't showing up. I see it now that I've given the button a name. Thanks "rw" Smile.


- Shuey - 2009-01-18

I'd like to set the 36 hour forecast as the default when launching TWC, and I notice in the bottom left corner of the screen, it says "INFO: sets as default view" but I have no idea what the "INFO" button is or how to activate it =S. I checked the manual under the global keyboard settings, and the only thing that comes close to "info" is the "I" key. However, the "I" key on my keyboard does not work for settings one of TWC defaults =\
