Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SuperDateTime - Current Date/Temperature and/or Baseball Screensaver
Here's a funny thing, couldn't see why the temperatures from my local Wunderground station were so far out, turns out it reports degrees centigrade then SDT converts into centigrade as though it was Fahrenheit. Easy fix, configure SDT to show the Fahrenheit value (%e) knowing it'll be centigrade. Thought I'd mention it in case anyone else is confused like I was! A code fix would involve checking the header line returned by Wunderground which has "TemperatureC" as the header for that column... -- rnlg rnlg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10590 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

I've been dabbling in Perl for some years now, so can at least read and understand your code (doubt I could create something as complex though). Can't resist suggesting you could probably do with some more comments in the code, I had to go through many rounds of "got here" debug messages to fathom some of it out ;) GoCubs;386005 Wrote: > Sorry to hear you guys are experiencing this.

I'll let you know if I manage to narrow down the problem.

Hi Neil(?) Yes, I get an almost daily freeze of the screensaver. I've had it running with debug logging for a few days, and can't pinpoint why or where it freezes, but it just stops running and the squeezeboxes all just get old data and an asterisk, or the logo and asterisk if you power cycle them. Sorry, I haven't got any answers, just thought you'd like to know you are not alone! -- rnlg rnlg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10590 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Announce: SuperDateTime - Current Date/Temperature and/or Baseball Screensaver
Got some more clues to the "no forecast" problem. It's all to do with the weather format setup. When I first downloaded sdt for the extension intaller of 7.3, sdt didn't show any data as there were no default formats (or they were all blank). I added in formats for each of my players through the sc gui, but that only covers the today/tomorrow formats and not the layout used for the 10 day forecast. The gui doesn't provide a way to modify the 10 day forecast layout, so I still had blank entries for these, hence the blank screens with no info on them. So now I've added these formats to superdatetime.prefs directly, and I can see all the forecast info. I'll have a play later to see if a "new" player gets these added automatically as it should. -- rnlg rnlg's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10590 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins

I have the same issue; only get three days of forecast despite setting
the fdays value to more. Done some debugging and proved that the 10
day forecast is being read and parsed correctly (as far as I can tell),
but all I get is a blank screen for all the extra days.
I'm using Weather.com identifier UKXX0115.
e.g. for $wetData{d6} these are the hash key/value pairs:
highF, 50
highC, 10
forecastIcon, 12
date, Jan 17
precip, 60%
lowF, 42
day, Sat
lowC, 6
condition, Rain
Hope you can help!
Thanks.
