Hi,
This sounds more like a feature request & not a bug report, so whats the bug actually?

Regards

Please consider the following: 128x128 icons are already there, so this is not a quite a new feature request. I could not find the proper documentation on the subject in official help or in the forums. I scanned the xml files and coudl not find c:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\weather\64x64\ or c:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\weather\128x128\ string. There is no manual control over that, so this is my understanding that the icons are automatically used/picked up according to the screen resolution. My screen is 1080 so I don't quite understand why the skin doesn't automatically pick 128x128 icons.

I had a look at the code and while being there fixed some others issues as well:

• fixed code to use 128 pixel images if skin height is >= 720
• enlarged current image to 175px
• enlarged 5 day's images to 128px
• fixed double refreshes
• fixed improper usage of GUIImage control
• improved performance when changing cities
