I ran into a problem today on Eden B2 where Weather+ was failing during startup. It turns out it was getting jammed up by the autoupdate startup script for the Hulu plugin. If you happen to use both these, check out this post to see how I fixed it.

Is there any possibility to add this Italian Video Meteo? Link to the site:

It looks like you're using Accuweather for your source. I know for me in the US, the Accuweather option stopped working for me a few days ago. I had to switch to NOAA (which is US only). Do you have another weather source option besides Accuweather and Weather.com (which also isn't working I think)?

Thanks for that, Weather.com is working (for now Big Grin).

Accuweather isn't working her as well. Is it possible to fix it?
I prefer accuweather sinds weather.com doesn't support a city close by.

thx in advance,
Nick

yeah... weather.com is working again...

I just tried weather.com on my system and it is working, but I thought that in order to get information from them using their API you had to pay a minimum of $20 / month.

Maybe they saw their traffic drop drastically. Most sites sell ads as well as prices for their ads based on their traffic. (visitors/hits)

IIRC, some of the info was grabbed using the API, other info was taken from reading the source of the web pages.
Since the charge was levied on use of the API, brightsr modified the scripts so that all the info is grabbed from the web page, not using the API.

This does mean that if Weather.com change the layout of their pages, the addon will break (as has happened on a few occasions). Brightsr was able to fix the scripts in the past when this happened.

The default weather addon using Weather.com doesn't work any more as this only uses the API, hence the change to using Weather Underground.

None of the skins I use will display weather after I enter my location. Is this just an issue with Eden?

Are you using a skin that has support for Weather+? Confluence for Eden does (the one for Dharma did not).


- Kindt.Nick - 2012-01-31

Not to be rude, but nPVR (gbpvr) has a plugin that uses accuweather as a source. This one has never let me down. It also is working right now.

I don't know how the guy did it, I guess he used the api but I never had to pay or subscribe to anything.

Maybe somebody can have a peek at that sourcecode, i don't know, just a suggestion

I keep forgetting what the conditional weather setting folder numbers are all about... I have a nice slide show built up and a skin that uses them. So I'm sure this is a redundant post... but it's a nice place to put it, should I lose it again Smile
