Where can i find the links for the images like sattelite from zdf.de like the screenshoot ?

The best link for me is this:

This link is not directly visible from the site. I discovered this by varying randomly the last number in the url.

You can put another number instead of "193" and discover other interesting gif.

Are animated gif's working for you as satellite image in this plugin?

As I can see here the gif is loaded but does not animate

Yep I see the same. Too bad.
Maybe this can be fixed!

EDIT:
I got the animation working by pasting the direct weather link in the WorldWeatherImage.xml.
If you do it like that you will experience that it takes about 10secs from BasicHome to open World Weather (its the time the animated image needs to load)

Not the best way but a workaround for now.

I can confirm that this was working with the old Weather Plugin. For the old plugin I created a batch file that automatically downloaded a series of satellite images, combined them with imagemagick into a single animated gif and used a local Apache Webserver to provide this to the weather plugin (Local files seemed not to be accessible).

Ok you are right, a bit of overhead for an animated satellite image.

I would find it really great if this could be directly realized with the WorldWeatherPlugin. For example that you enter

http://modul.wetter.zdf.de/data/radar-west-0-[01-25].jpg

in the configuration and then the plugin loads the images from 01-25 and displays each of the images in an animation.

I don't see a WorldWeatherImage.xml file. Am I missing something? No animation of animated gif for me.

Which skin do you use?

Hi.
Normally there are 3 xml skin files for Worldweather: WorldWeather.xml, WorldWeatherGeoClock.xml and WorldWeatherImage.xml. Additional there can be some xml to put weather info on home screen. This depends on the skin you use. So if you don't have those files you probably missing something.
