WorldWeather plugin v1.10.0 for MediaPortal 1.3.0 and higher (6 Viewers)

[kjegibbons]

That is "normal" due to the different icon aspect ratios.
I have posted it here already: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...l-v1-2-0-or-higher.102775/page-80#post-844131

Hmmm...OK...maybe that is something I can help with.

Regards.

Thank you sir...that did the trick.

One thing I have noticed though, is that when using the "VClouds" icon set I have distorted images?

OK...I've reworked the "VClouds" icon set to be central and in proportion.

Maybe these could replace the set on page 1?

Hi Micropolis,

Please find a slighty corrected/improved french translation for WorldWeather 6.4. This is a replacement for the previous one.

Also, as a remark, the item 119 "Clear/Sunny" appears also at night when the moon is shining, I imagine, the english description should be updated.

Dear community,
for all of those members, who can't wait for new features and/or the final release, I would invite you to test the new nightly build v0.6.7. This version contains a important development milestone and can be found at the well known place.

Plugin changes

• add history condition support for “Weather Underground” (please be aware, that you need a valid API key for this)
• appropriate configuration/expert settings and context menu enhancements
• add history related properties, add basic chart routines (see chapter 6 for more information)
• rework of language files to support the new functionality

Skin changes

• add condition view "History"
• add history condition related skin files (@catavolt: The default skin contains my generic skin file WorldWeatherHistoryCondition.xml, please take it and build a maintainable (and better) skin file for the final version. Thank you!)

Important: it is highly recommended to update language files and extend the skin files with changes, which are described above. Also I would suggest to disable the weather history condition functionaility by default, if you do not have register for a Weather Underground API key until now.

Now some answers to last questions and remarks:

@mamachan:

... Where i can found "City Code" for my city? = RECANATI (MC) - Postal Code 62019 - ITALY ...

You can use two methods, please enter the Yahoo specific Where On Earth ID "*12676450" or the international city code "ITXX0139" (for Potenza) into the city code field.

@serak:

... Hmmm. I have opened configuration and without any change saved. Restart MP and now it works...

Maybe the website has not generate or publish the appropriate file at the given time?

@FillR:

... Also, as a remark, the item 119 "Clear/Sunny" appears also at night when the moon is shining, I imagine, the english description should be updated.

World Weather Online and other providers does not separate between day and night, means "Clear/Sunny" can be the same condition for day or night. The parser of WorldWeather cannot differentiate between both states, as a result we need this ambiguous condition text.

Cheers, Micropolis

Edit: Just read the manual... never thought I would get so excited about seeing the weather! Herzlichen Dank.

Does anybody know what the "WorldWeather.xml" file in the "Base" folder is for?

Regards.


EDIT: Worked it out for myself!
