no problem

for xbox should i resize these or keep them the same?

also, if the images are stored on the xbox what do I put in the xml files to use those as backgrounds?

like this?
<imagepath>C:\Images\Weather\$INFO[Weather.FanartCode]</imagepath>

you'll probably want to resize them.

jmadonald · 2008-12-10 21:18

thanks, tim.

what is the directory path to use for images to show on viewing weather?

my iages are on /c/images/weather on xbox

timdog82001 · 2008-12-10 21:32

yep, just like you wrote and it should work. You do need to be using a build newer than atlantis (i don't remember the actual revision number) in order for it to work.

thanks tim, I am having trouble connect to the ftpsite to get the latest svn build.

finally able to connect to t3ch site.

i must be doing something wrong.

I have the latest SVN 12/7 . All weather images on

/C/Images/Weather

myweather.xml

<description>Weather Background Image</description>
<control type="multiimage">
<imagepath>/C/Images/Weather/$INFO[Weather.FanartCode]</imagepath>
<include>CustomBGMultiImage</include>
</control>

Any ideas?

edit: got it working, path should be c:/images/weather
