I love this plugin and people are honestly wowed by it when I show it to them, but I have 1 issue. I use the spinsafe revolve skin and when you push up on the remote to move the map down, it brings the navigation menu down the from the top of the screen so you have to push up and then down on the remote to clear it before you can move the map down again. Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

    Hit F9 to bring the context menu up.

    You can disable the Topbar plugin in Mediaportal Configuration or alter MyWorldMap.xml

    I really like the new version. It finally allows me to zoom in up to level 19. Problem however with default settings is that my IP got blocked within 15 minutes :(
    I'll try some lower settings next time.

    Redfish: If that happens with the Google Satellite maps than it might help to change the urls a bit. Currently the urls uses the version marker that seems to works even if Google changes there system (v=99). I'm not totally sure, but it might help to use the same version marker that Google maps uses right now... if I remember correctly than it is v=23...

    Maybe it is worth a try ;)

    bye

    It happened while using the GMHybrid mode. I'll try to change it to v=23.
    Also when I got banned moving around and zooming in and out got very slow. I think it's because the tiles didn't get loaded and the plug-in waits for a complete download before it moves around?

    I'll have to wait a couple of minutes to test the new link.

    GMHybrid uses two urls! The GMAerial and the GMHybrid (the plugin combines these two pictures to the one you are willing to see). So most likely it is the GMAerial url only that has to be changed. The others are not so sensible ... at least from my experience...

    I now have the urls, but it doesn't work anymore. I think I messed it up and changed too much, or I'm still banned. What is the easiest way to get the urls back? Reinstall?

    edit: okay did reinstall. It's working again while Aerial is @ 23. I"ll do some testing and let you know.

    If you use an MCE remote the Info button allows you to do searches or change map type or zoom options.

    I have tried the 23 setting for the aerial map. I even lowered the 5 for al settings to 4 and <15 and >15 zoom level to half the initial values, but within 15 minutes I got banned again. Good thing that there is also an option for Maps from Microsoft.
