[RELEASE] LocatU - Google Maps and Geocoder / Geolocation Script

asteronimo · 2007-05-06 21:10

Finally got it working:
Google Maps and Geocoder on your XBOX!

Just enter an address with the virtual keyboard
and see the adress location pop up on your screen.

You can even pan left/right/up/down and zoom in/out.

Download it here:
http://www.mobilebenefits.nl/XBMC/LocatU.zip

Unpack it and copy the folder LocatU to your scripts directory.

Hope you like it.

Does anybody got an screen sample of this?

I am also working on an implementation of the Google route-mapping feature.
This will take me at least another 3 weeks though.

Thnx!

I had some bad luck, my xbox is dead Sad

.
So I have to mod another with an Xeno FX chip I have lying around
before I can continue coding.
Well, gives me a chance to try the xbox emulator on my pc.

Cool stuff?, ...has you submitted the script(s) to XBMCscripts.com yet
(so that it/they can easily be downloaded by everyone via their script)

asteronimo · 2007-05-12 12:48

Yes, it's also in the XBMCScripts list.

I will be posting regular updates like:

- show nearby businesses
- distance measuring between 2 locations
- uploading and showing itineraries (mountain trips, etc.)

Let me know what else you would like to see.
