they are available:
MapIconPack-large.zip (image size: 600x405)

MapIconPack-small.zip (image size: 256x173)

but you need to edit guisettings.xml in order to get them to show in the skin.

- quit xbmc
- open guisettings.xml and add (or replace if it's already there):
Code:
<setting type="string" name="skin.confluence.TWC.MapIconPath">\path\to\maps\folder\</setting>
- save the file and start xbmc

UK and Europe forecast videos available now.
UK - SKY News Forecast (next 24hours)
Europe - Accuweather.com Europe Forecast (if not available, it shows SKY Europe Forecast.)

For fetching Europe videos, I need to know area codes of european nations. (like FRXX...., SPXX....)
As of now, I added area codes for only Spain, Portugal, Germany, France, Italy, Greece and Netherland.
So if you live in another european nation, please let me now your area code of weather.com, and I'll add the code in add-on.

!! [UPDATED] Canada Also supported. !!

instead of the national one?

I know what you mean.
I think local videos can be fetched.
But those videos are supporting a few major cities.
For example, I'm living in Connecticut, Weather.com shows me local video for New York City and nearby areas.

If you can tweak the skin for showing two or more videos, I'm willing to work on it.

Thanks for this, great job.Laugh

It depends on whether there's any website which is providing forecast videos for Brazil or South America.
So if you can give me any information about that, I'll be happy to work on it.

[UPDATE] v.1.1.5
- added local forecast video code

Code:
video : regional forecast video url (empty if not available)
video.local : local forecast video url (empty if not available)

Only US major cities supported by Weather.com available.

Do you think I need to make a new thread for this add-on?

I downloaded and test it, and it was okay.
please re-download and try to install.

You can install it just by extracting the zip file into %appdata%\xbmc\addons (vista, 7).

you don't need to 'install' the confluence mod.
just extract the zipfile in the skin.confluence folder.
it'll overwrite a bunch of skin files, so make a backup of the skin first.

way to go! :-)

noticed one small issue, not sure if it's the addon to blame or not...

if set my location to Chicago (IL)
the video url is: http://v.imwx.com/v/wxflash/CNcity.flv
and this one fails to play.

video.local plays fine though.
