MyWorldMap plugin V 1.0 RC2 (Google Maps and Virtual Earth) - Page 12

lkuech · 2008-07-30, 10:03

Google has change the Url's again. (This time they change the urls for the aerial maps)

To be able to use these kind of maps again you have to change the urls yourself (till the next version of the plugin comes with an updated list of it).

In the config of the plugin do the following:

* Select the tab "Tile URL's"
* Change the the "Google Aerial Url" from "http://kh{0}.google.com/kh?n=404&v=99&t={1}" to "http://khm{0}.google.com/kh?n=404&v=99&t={1}"

As you can see this time it is just a one letter you have to change.
I will try to find the time to upload a slightly improved version tomorrow. This version will also come with the new URLS's.

Bye
Lars

Any idea why google periodically change the urls?

lkuech · 2008-07-30, 11:07

Well.

Often is was just a change of the server side api version. The version 99 we use right now is just a workaround for that.
This time it looked like google has switched over to a new server farm (maybe newer more powerful hardware) or something....

how do i search for an adress? :O

lkuech · 2008-08-01, 20:03

Via the context menu (normally the F9 key).

My Logitech Dinovo Mini doesnt have the F9-key so I have to use VirtualKeyboard when i want to search...

lkuech · 2008-08-04, 12:38

Well. If your keyboard has no F-keys at all... then you have a problem

... but not only with Worldmap, there are a lot of functions in MediaPortal that are accessible via the context menu.

So you have two option...

You create a macro for your keyboard that sends a F9. DiNovo Mini function keys? - Keyboards - Bluetooth - Logitech Forums
or you edit the keymaps.xml from MediaPortal (which is located in the AllUsers AppData folder)
