This is a "plugin" for the Video Disk Recorder (VDR). Written by: Sascha Bajonczak Project's homepage: http://vdr.glaserei-franz.de Latest version available at: http://vdr.glaserei-franz.de See the file COPYING for license information. Description: ============= 10 days weather forecast For now have a look in the german README.DE , only short description here;) Short (and maybe not completed) way: You need imlib2 or imagemagick (tested with newest one, see info in "Makefile"). Unpack and Compile the plugin (see VDR docs). Copy whole folder "weatherng" to $PLUGINCONFIGDIR Edit "weatherng.sh". Start VDR with "-P weatherng". optional : Commandline parameters : -D --data -I --images -S --script -C --config -D = Path to your data and radarmaps (data1.xml) -I = Path to folder "images" -S = Path to weatherng.sh -C = Path to config ( e.g /etc/vdr/plugins ) If you dont set parameters , the default for them are: $PLUGINCONFIG/weatherng ================================================================================= Before you use the examples of URLs in weatherng.sh ,you agree with the "Terms of Use" from "The Weather Channel" , short TWC , which you can found at http://www.weather.com and that you have the permission to use the downloaded files. The same for copyrighted radarmaps. ================================================================================= Then start VDR again with or without commandline parameter (-P weatherng). Goto setup and change what you like. To get your Station Id move with your internetbrowser to : http://www.weather.com Type in the name of your town (e.g. "London" and hit enter. Now have a look at the link for your town which you hopefully got after you hit return. If you dont got one , try with a bigger town next to you. For "Herne, Germany" you get something like ....GMXX0056.... . so GMXX0056 is the StationId for you if you live in "Herne,Germany" ;) Key RIGHT : day forward or next radarmap Key LEFT : previous day or previous radarmap Key Back/Escape : back to forecast or ext the oher are selfexplaining..... If you dont update , you wont see any radarmaps/weatherdata. So press green Key "Refresh" after first run.
