About

Weather v3 is an improved version of Weather Remake, with completely new, based on XBMC design and functionalities:

ambient music for selected weather conditions (thunderstorms, rain etc.)
different backgrounds depending on current weather
multilingual

Installation

Download: Weather v3 (20,8 MB)
You can also get optional pack with alternative backgrounds HERE (5,2 MB)

Extract whole directory wherever you want. If you have it in /home/scripts/Weather, add something like that in menu.rss:

<item>
<title>Weather</title>
<link>/home/scripts/Weather/weather.rss</link>
<media:thumbnail width="120" height="90">
    <script>
     if (getQueryItemIndex() == 1)
     {
          state=getDrawingItemState();
          if (state == "focus") { "/home/scripts/Weather/image/weather_focus_en.jpg"; }
          else			{ "/home/scripts/Weather/image/weather_unfocus_en.jpg"; }
     }
    </script>
</media:thumbnail>
</item>

And adjust line 15 in Weather/weather.rss to:

wDir = "/home/scripts/Weather/";

That's all.

Configuration

Take a look into Weather/weather.conf:

1st line is Yahoo code, for example Vancouver is CAXX051
2nd line is scale: must be c or f (Celsius/Fahrenheit)
3rd line is for custom background music, if you want to use it provide valid local path or remote URL (like http://gr-relay-6.gaduradio.pl/29), otherwise it must be set to no

You can also use echo, if you don't have any editor. Examples:

echo -e "NLXX0017\nc\nno" > /home/scripts/Weather/weather.conf
echo -e "USIL0228\nf\nno" > /home/scripts/Weather/weather.conf
echo -e "PLXX0010\nc\nhttp://gr-relay-6.gaduradio.pl/29" > /home/scripts/Weather/weather.conf
