Hi all. Had a minor problem where after upgrading from 0.16 to 0.17 (a
very smooth process in Gentoo, btw), MythWeather's radar went from
animated to non-animated. After a quick look through the source code
for MythWeather, I see that it does indeed look for information in the
DB. For some reason, most MythWeather information in the "settings"
column are not present for me, including "WeatherWantAnimated", which
controls wether the radar image is a static or animated image.
After adding that setting to the column in MySQL (with a "1" indicating
"true" and the name of my frontend box), lo and behold, pretty green
blobs rolling across California.
I searched through my pre-0.17 DB backup, and this setting is not
present there either, so perhaps the default MythWeather setting
changed from animated to static? If that's true, shouldn't there be an
option to change this from within the MythRadar settings interface,
rather than manual manipulation of the DB? Or am I missing something
here? Apologies if this has been noted - I searched gossamer-threads,
to no avail.
Here's the SQL:
---
$ mysql -u <dbuser> -p
Password: *****
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.

You can turn off this feature to get a quicker startup with -A

mysql> insert into settings (value,data,hostname)
-> VALUES ("WeatherWantAnimated", 1, "<frontend hostname>");

That's it.
