WorldWeather plugin v1.10.0 for MediaPortal 1.3.0 and higher (2 Viewers)

it would be happy if other community members could participate in this collection. I've spent several hours to collect and validate this images, hopefully other members would share the knowledge with me and other WorldWeather users.

This is IMHO the best Europe satellite view today disposable (1280x720 of resolution !)...

...but is only a single frame. Feature request: a parsing routine to download and combine all the jpg of the animation. My suggestion is a configuration syntax like this:

http://wwwdyn.zdf.de/ext/weather/sat-euri-0-["0"-"48"].jpg where ["0"-"48"] is the variables chars in the url string.

xavier.

This one is also good:

.... but it is Flash ...

Maybe add support for flash-animations?

Here a StreamedMP skin for normal and hour condition view. It is for 0.5.4 nightly build from the 18th of May. So it supports wetter.com 7-day forecast.

I also want to use post to report a problem. As you can see in the normal view, I don't get all information from wetter.com and for the hour view I don't get information about the predicted rain.

I know this is a nightly build, so my question is, should it word, or is it not implanted yet?

Thanks
And keep going!

PS.: The normal view is an improvement from marduk65's one. Thanks for the original!

Dear bkv, fischy667,

bkv:

... I installed version 0.5.4 (Nightly Build 2012-05-18) In the configuration error ...

With your error report, I'm not able to identify if this is a profile or configuration setting problem.
In the first step, please start testing with the predefined weather profile again. If the problem still exists, please open your the configuration file mediaportal.xml and delete the whole section of WorldWeather.

It's a little bit tricky, but no a bug. In the positive case (a weather station has found in the near of your city), wetter.com reports all weather relevant information, in the negative case, nothing. (see xml below and e.g. return value of "w" for wind). The best way is to enter a postal code for next big (and hopefully supported) city.

Predicted rain in hour view is not supported by wetter.com, so the value is everytime empty.

Hi fischy667,
take a look to the xml code, which comes back from wetter.com. It does not contain the required data, your profile is ok, but the provider doesn't have a weather station at this place and doesn't calculate values based on other sources. I can't help here, sorry.

Cheers, Micropolis

[How do I get|Where is] the xml-code from wetter.com mentioned by you?

 

[Micropolis]

Hi fischy667,
click on "Show Spoiler" in my post #1114.

Cheers, Micropolis

 

[fischy667]

Ah, so this is the code. Thanks.

Is there a list of all the weather stations from wetter.com?

 

[fischy667]

Ok, I found one.
