*ORIGINAL THREAD* InfoService v1.6 - Feed reader/Twitter reader and weather (1 Viewer)

[PussyWagon]

Ok, managed to get it work in monochrome now. But only when weather is on focus? I want to have the 5day forecast to always be visible. Is that possible?

Loving this plug-in so much, really like the web function...

One thing though, the default zoom should be saved when exiting the web browser. And when I do zoom in and out it interferes with my current track that is playing? Is there a way around this?

At the moment there is no way around this :/ I must fix this with a new version.

From the first post in this thread

#infoservice.weather.today.img.big.filenamewithout ext - Todays weather condition image filename without extension in the size of 128x128

Would be better with code brackets, so you don't have the space in the name

#infoservice.weather.today.img.big.[B]filenamewithoutext[/B] - Todays weather condition image filename without extension in the size of 128x128

Hi edsche,

First of all, thanks for this great plugin. Works like a charm and definitely a good base for even more. Nice work!
Since I am using the XFace skin for more than a year now, I put some effort in editing the skin files for XFace and make InfoService work with BasicHome, both RSS Ticker and Weather (Twitter is also possible by editing a single line in the xml).

Since I did not want to change the skin layout impressively, I kept it minimal (as you will notice in the screenshots below).

What's supported in BasicHome:
- RSS Ticker at the bottom (single + all feeds) with navigation (clickable)
- Weather Today at the top left
- All functionality in RSS view (fully reworked)

Not (yet) supported in these skin files:
- 5 day weather view
- Twitter

Hope the guys, who love the plugin and use XFace, are happy now I definitely am...

*edit*
Notice: The BasicHome.xml is the one refering to MovingPictures instead of the Movies plugin when entering Videos.

I'm Happy, Thnx

i think this is an infoservice problem. if i idle on basichome for ~10minutes, my screen freezes (ticker stops, i can't move the menu.)
running mp 1.0.2, streamedmp aeon mod, and infoservice 993

here's what the log says:

Have the same problem here with 1.1.0 ALPHA and latest SVN. After disabling Infoservice, MP keeps running without problems. Strange one!
