Re: WorldWeather plugin v0.2.5 for MediaPortal v1.2.0 or higher

Hi Dadeo,

TodayIconNumber works great for me for conditional backdrops, thanks!

great to hear.

However, I found one condition so far that is not mapped correctly: fog - #WorldWeather.TodayIconImage (and TodayIconNumber) says it is displaying 9.png but that is drizzle.

I'll correct this in the next version, thanks.

I still have the issues with your sample config (XML) for Munich. If I use it is as provided, only moon phase data displays (in default skin ofc). As soon as I remove the lat. long., all weather data displays, but not sunrise/sunset ofc. I have Win7 64 bit with Regional Languages settings En(US). In MP the language is set by default to English for me (not En US).

As I said here, there is a conversion problem, which results in a ArgumentException error. I need a little bit more time to adapt the current routine to handle all culture settings. I will do this after my vacation. Please don't use this functionality until I found a well working solution.

Cheers, Micropolis

    @1stDead it takes a few hours before it appears in MPEI because it's a new extension and high has to verify the update.xml format. In the past some bad xmls where uploaded and no one could update MPEI online info, so now we check new ones first.

    theres no pending update for mpei so at first the author should provide a (new) update-file ;)

    I know the issue has cropped up in a few cases, such as the decimal point in skin xmls for line spacing. I'm not sure if it applies here, but arion_p recommended using CultureInfo.InvariantCulture wherever localization is an issue.

    Nice job Micropolis:D, I don't get all my info. Is it better to lat. and long. I used city and zipcode.

    Oh by the way I think Weather 2 wants to be a provider, I told them it's for MP users around the world looking up there own weather within MP, with the brochure and some old TWC sample images. See what they say

    Reply:
    I’m sure we can help with a free API.

    How many locations do you need the forecast for?

    Is this for only Web, or also Mobile?

    Cheers

    1st thanks for your plugin. One ehancement would be if the plugin would be developped just as a replacement of the no working core plugin. The advantage would be that no skinners had to change anything and everybody can just use the plugin.

    I think this plugin has a huge portential to get even better than the inbuilt weather plugin was. So it shouldnt be designed as a pure replacement.

    However, I found one condition so far that is not mapped correctly: fog - #WorldWeather.TodayIconImage (and TodayIconNumber) says it is displaying 9.png but that is drizzle.

    I can confirm this!

    If its not too much work could you add one more satellite image for "Pollenflug"? Thanks!
    But have a nice holiday first! =)
