In better news, though, I am hoping to complete the BOM API work this weekend, and have re-worked the background downloading to another method, which doesn't seem to be hitting their block, so hopefully the new version will bring back the better BOM data, and more reliable radar background downloading.
It's basically done, just need to test it across some different installs...and then submit to the Kodi folks for review...

Has settings fix.Actually I followed your instructions to the letter (ie I didn't reconfigure before going itto it but I think I ran the patcher for the skins) Anyway I didn't see the legacy message.
(You did not see the 'legacy' info as you did not run it before re-configuring....or else you would have seen it, it definitely appears if it is using WeatherZone locations...which is will only do if the BOM location is not configured, or the BOM API doesn't return appropriate results).
