Hi,
New Squeezebox owner, and subsequently new user of your plug-in. First
off, thanks for making this, its a fantastic enhancement for the
squeezebox! Anyways, had problems with the forecast thing and thought
Id share a few additional observations.
Seems like this situation happens when the user attempts to configure
the plugin before it runs the first time. The .pref settings seem like
they are auto created once the plug-in is run, so if you try to mess
with the settings first, then hit apply, the settings for the forecast
days will not get created, and you will not be able to restore your
forecast settings without having to go into the .prefs file.
If I may be so bold, I think a simple fix would be to have a "reset
player defaults" button on the web interface which could restore not
only the forecast settings, but the default view settings as well.
Anyways, hope this info helps.
Regards
