World Weather Lite (SharpDX) 1.3.4 (1 Viewer)

[Pablik]

This plugin is alternate version to the original World Weather plugin developed by @Micropolis. Is compatible with MediaPortal version 1.32 and higher(SharpDX) and offers basic functionality of the original plugin:

• multiple weather location definition, profiles
• available weather providers: FORECA, MSN, ACCUWEATHER
• media images
• geoclock
• holidays

The plugin has skin tag compatibility with the original plugin.
Installation: you can use official MPEI Installer to install the plugin online or download the extension package from the official web page. Please pay the attention to the platform version (x86, x64).
Upon the first installation, please open the MediaPortal Configuration to setup the plugin.
New weather location can be also added from the MediaPortal GUI(context menu).

AccuWeather:
Both API and Web providing is available. For the API you need your own key. Free key has limit of 50 requests per day. I recommend to set the weather refresh interval to 60 minutes. If the key is not set, the Web parsing is used then (funcionality is limited).

Current version: 1.3.4

Git: repository

For those of us who are not familiar with what to do with repositories and do not have an account on Github, could an MPEE1 version be posted here?

What you mean by that? If you go to the offiicial web extension page (as mentioned in the first post), you can download both x86 and x64 MPEI files.

Very sorry I missed that link and only spotted the Repository one at the end of the post.

Here is a preliminary new version for testing (just dll for both x86 and x64):

• added TimeZone to the profile (set automatically from coordinates)
• GUI units, media images and holidays are now moved under profile(location), i.e. each profile has its own set

EDIT: moved to the first post

added TimeZone

Works fine THX

The multi-location and time zone changes are working great for me both on 1.33 x64 pre and 1.32 x64 release.
I am not seeing anything in the media though except for CZ Rain, see first screenshot and if I manually try one of the links in Firefox it errors see 2nd screenshot.

It seems that, the api.sat24.com links are gone.

Try the alternatives below:

Neither of those Satellite links worked for me, I did not try the Infra ones.

That is odd, right now I made a check of all alternatives and they are all working.
