wunderground isn't available as a source in Weather+ any longer. Apparently when the XBMC folks stuck the deal with Weather Underground to do the weather feed for XBMC Eden it apparently precluded any other plugin provider from using Weather Underground as a data source.

i hope you don't mind if i step in for a sec to correct this piece of information.

wundeground has provided xbmc free access to their api and this is a gesture team xbmc appreciates very much.
you can read all about it here:

the problem we had with weatherplus was the fact that it was scraping the wunderground website.

it's like, someone trusts you with the key to their front-door and we would allow someone else to throw in the window to get inside at the same time.
that just didn't feel right to us.

i have discussed our concern about this with brightsr in PM and we have agreed to work together on a way to give weatherplus access to the wunderground weather data.

it's something (besides a dozen of other things) i'm currently working on.
i have it partially working already locally, so if all goes well, weatherplus users should be able to select wunderground as their service provider again in the near future.

Great news. Thanks ronie !

If your location is in Ireland, video is automatically set to TV3.

When I go to video, for me it still brings up the accuweather European report.

Oh, tv3 webpage has been changed. I'll try to fix it.

Thanks for the update. I tried to put "apparently" in my post enough to convey that I didn't think I had a full understanding. The clarification is much appreciated.

I have moved over to the Eden beta and I can nolonger access weather. I can configure locations but when you bring up the weather page, the location is not listed and if you try and select a different location, you get a busy prompt.

I even tried switching back to the default weather provider (Weather Underground) but no luck.

Here is a debug log

That's what I have exactly. If I could find another fancy weather fanart, I would use it first.

I thought the following picture was something like was weather based aswell (since it says summer)



So am I correct if I say that the picture with the house (the one that i posted a few messages back) is the only weather based background there is?

It's the only one I know, unfortunately.

If you find another one working, please let me know. That should be appreciated.

so you have a problem with Weather Plus, too?

[brightsr]

@ fional: I've fixed it, but I'm going to make it included to next update in order to avoid too frequent update.

You want a background weather pack?

You want a background weather pack?

If you have some condition-based weather background packs, please share the links. A lot of users looking for beautiful weather fanarts, like Ajedi, must appreciate that.
