simplechords Wrote:hello, i was wondering if it was possible so that this addon would update the weather forecast at start up

nope, that's not something the addon can do.
it has to be taken care of by the skin.

if the skin uses any of the $INFO[Weather.*] infolabels on the homescreen,
it will trigger xbmc to run the addon.

otherwise, weather info won't be fetched until you enter the weather screen.

I've been working along side simplechords on the same issue and found a resolution. We both run Neon on Dharma and the existing code for updating the weather in Startup.xml was not updating the weather through the label $INFO[Window(Weather).Property(Current.Condition)]. However, looking through old posts IRT weather not updating, I changed the label to $INFO[Weather.Conditions] and it works perfectly in Dharma.

What confuses me is that on the wiki for Weather Plus, it mentions that Weather.Conditions is no longer available. Is the Weather.Conditions property not going to be available going forward into Eden?

I have been a fan of the Weather Plus addon since Darma. I have just upgraded to Eden Pre Beta and installed the new Weather Plus. I see that the skin/page format has changed. My wife really like the "All on one page" format as it was in Darma. Is there a way to get that format back?

She doesn't like changing items to view by the "slide out" controls.

It's a change of Confluence, not of Weather Plus. If anybody needs, I can make a mod for Eden's Confluence after stable Eden is officially released.

Weather.Conditions is accessible only by built-in weather of Dharma, so it's useless since the built-in one doesn't work anymore. But as you did, I think that property could trigger xbmc to run weather addon.

That would be awesome! My wife and elderly parents (who love your addon) thank you very much.

Does anybody know when the target data is for Eden stable release?

I think something may have just changed with accuweather in the last hour. I just relauched XBMC and got a script error with Weather Plus. The accuweather web site is still up and reporting properly, and if I chance to NOAA everything works fine. Here's the chuck on log I think will help. I can post a full and/or debug log on pastepin if needed.

yup... i'm getting errors, too. with accuweather.com
NOAA still works.

here's my pastebin:http://pastebin.com/9PN7qpLq

just to pile on.... me too.

I didnt make a log yet but i get errors every few minutes aswell since yesterday (im using accuweather).

very a small error on string id 32712 :

should replace <string id="32712">Frehch</string>
by : <string id="32712">French</string>

Same problem here with accuweather, same error in the log... maybe they changed something in the web pages...

Same problem here with accuweather, on Dharma 10.1

Was working perfect up untill a couple of days ago.

Sorry all users having issues. I've been busy so I think I'll be able to work again a few days later. Thanks for using this addon and waiting the next update.
