This is my FIRST attempt at a squeezebox plugin, so please be gentle. :) I wrote WeatherClock to learn how to write plugins and generally to have abit of fun, but I find it useful enough that I use it almost every day so I thought others might find it useful too.
Basically it is yet another weather display screensaver, but there are some differences. It is meant almost exclusively for Boom users because it is "interactive". Usually it shows a clock, but with the "big knob" you can bring up a weather forecast (using Google). One turn shows the weather now; two turns shows the weather tomorrow; three turns the day after etc. Also, the six preset buttons can be used to show the weather for six different, defined, locations. Configuration is via a plugin settings page in SBS. While it should work on any other "Slim" SBS, it is a bit silly to need the IR remote to view the forecast. I guess it might be useful to Transporter owners too. You can download it here: www.aslak.net/WeatherClock.zip I've only tried it out on Linux, but it should run on Windows/Mac as well. On Linux, you would unzip into /var/lib/squeezesaver/Plugins and restart SBS. Any feedback, good and bad, gratefully received. -- Aslak3 (SB 2, SB Boom, SB Radio) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Aslak3's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=31977 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76881 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
