I had a look. It's not trivial to say the least. Actually I'd say it's not
doable at all. Here's a quick summary of why:
The main page (for your zip code/location) loads a lot of scripts, one of
which has the JSONP payload we want. So the first step would need to be

I do think Weather.com parsing is broken; I just posted a
SuperDateTime hasn't been parsing the new ESPN web site correctly for
NBA scores for some time now. I played around with the code the other

web sites he scrapes are constantly changing their HTML and parsing is a
little fragile.

Got it. Now I guess what's really needed is some sort of

how to access them. What am I missing?

I found that just manually editing the par file wasn't enough, since even
after a restart it seemed like the changes weren't being picked up.
I then had to manua

Plugin.pm, make the above change, then drag it back in to overwrite the

again.

If this is the case it might be worth considering different update

For what it's worth, I recently upgraded to 7.4.1 (release version) from a
7.3 build, this is on Windows XP. No problems at all, in fact it really
seems better in a number of ways. I recommend it to anyone sti

I would probably stop upgrading SqueezeCenter if we lost that

I'm guessing this was due to my quick fix for MLB parsing which I passed

Looks like you're right. The good news is that with about 10 minutes of
