Would it be possible to add wind speed in kts (knots) on the weather page? A lot of users working at sea or in the air would appreciate this :)

/me and the windsurfers out there are also extremely addictive to the wind info available.
Which unit to use should be selectable, I prefer m/s, some bft.

Maybe these sites could be used:

http://www.wetteronline.de

Personally, I'd love to see wave height too...
but then I surf.

If/when I get the chance I was going to write a dedicated surf forecast plugin.

It would need to show wave height + period, wind speed + direction for days +0,+1 etc.

This would be overlaid on a map (the beaches!).

Then - the cherry on top - MP would auto-alert me to upcoming good surf days at my fave beaches.

(Data would need to be sourced - or at least screen-scraped from web - not sure what the ethical stance is on this one; perhaps some inplace advertisment would appease.).

I have also retired very early SD units, the Quatros seem to work much better than the older units. Go to SD's support website and download and install the windows...

TV Server plugins are listed on this page, and "EPG Cleaner" can be downloaded from this page. Note: I don't know what bitness the plugin has. It might be 32-bit, or it might be "any cpu". The plugin is not listed by the "MP Extensions" tool, so I don't know whether it has been tested with the most-recent MP releases. -- from...
