Well, it seems to have the correct settings, as the radar picture works. It's jus' that the forecast info is all hosed.

Not enought information about your problem.
I see you are running R5E50, this and previous distros have quit working because they seek websites that have changed as a source of weather info. the previous pages in this thread address that problem.
Going forward, R5F1 gets all the proper info and displays it properly in Myth, but only displays the radar picture in Mythweb. A fix is presumably pending.

Ah, okay. Didn't realize that. I'll have to upgrade to R5F1 when I get a chance.

baishen78,
You should be able to get earlier version of Knoppmyth fixed by following the directions from simonflood on the first page for this thread.

Works well for 5F1, many thanks for the effort.

I am on R5C7. Now to get this portion working on at least one SBE. OK if I've read previous posts correctly R5B7 and R5C7 users are seeing (or rather not seeing!) a missing map on the doppler radar screen. Checking my R5E50 system at home I definitely don't get this error message. Looking back at earlier replies I think this is a problem that's been addressed with mythTV 0.20 which R5E50 includes (both R5B7 and R5C7 seem to be 0.19 and I'm 99.9% sure R5D1 is too). From the Release Notes for mythTV 0.20 - MythWeather sectionQuote: Fixed radar images by parsing number of images from source site instead of assuming 6 are available I therefore suspect, since MythWeather is being upgraded via the method I posted earlier, that some other bit of code needs updating ... ? Yes, some code needs updating so here is the fix for the missing radar images problem. Apparently it isn't loading up one of the images even though it downloaded it.
This fix appears to only be required for pre R5E50 systems.
Follow Simon's instructions to download, qmake and patch. After the patch you need to edit weather.cpp at line 2577 and change it from this
Code: for (int x = 0; x < imageCount; x++)
{
QString sFile = QString(fileprefix + "/radar%1.jpg").arg(x);
sURL = QString("http://image.weather.com" + imageLoc + "%1L.jpg")
.arg(x + 1);
to this Code: for (int x = 1; x <= imageCount; x++)
{
QString sFile = QString(fileprefix + "/radar%1.jpg").arg(x);
sURL = QString("http://image.weather.com" + imageLoc + "%1L.jpg")
.arg(x);
then continue following the rest of Simon's instructions and you'll be a happy camper.
Note: Simon there's now another patch (mythweather3.patch) that fixes a wind speed forecast bug, perhaps update your instructions to reflect?

Good spot! Now updated my instructions. Not having tried it myself do you still get 2 "Hunk" errors when applying the patch?

Yes, it's the same as stated in your instructions.

But the data's there, & displays properly if accessed from inside the Myth program.
I searched through tjc's hitchhiker's guide, and it doesn't look like a known fix. Is it just me, or does anyone else see this ? tjc wrote: It's not just you. I've been meaning to add a note to that effect.
I have the same problem. Any idea how to fix the Mythweb weather data?

I did a clean auto-install of R5F1. It does display correctly within the frontend's weather screen, but the weather inside mythweb is broken.
I did see my zip code at the top of the broken page.
Is this set during the initial phase; the first time through mythsetup? I remember seeing text about setting the weather defaults based on zip-code entered to determine cable provider.

The weather is pulled from various web sources that periodically change their format & URLs. The most recent change happened right around the time R5F1 was being released. There are some partial patches available, but most folks are just waiting for a full fix from MythTV.

Simon - U the man! Used your instructions for getting mythweather working on a plain MythTV/FC 8 (after hours of searching normal help points) and worked a charm. I now know its cold in January in the UK.
