Just upgraded to 7.5.1 but the plugin is shown as not compatible. I edited the install.xml file and set max version to 7.5+ but still not working after a re-start. Is this the end if this great little plugin? -- Heuer

This plugin seems to have stopped updating. My SB still shows the weather for Sunday (today is Tuesday) as the first forecast screen. Is there a problem? -- Heuer Heuer's Profile:

I stumbled upon Sipceyweather whilst looking for a fix to running another Weather plugin on a Boom. No matter what I've tried I cannot get it to fit the little display size. Will Spiceyweather be available via the Extension Downloader ? -- njanda

Great plugin and good to have 'chance of rain' back. If you are going to make any further changes you might want to consider getting the display to default back to 'today' after say 15 seconds. Can cause confusion if someone has left it displaying a few days ahead. -- Heuer

Thanks for the answer, got that setting right. Unfortunately, probably because I'm running SC on just a QNAP TS-209 (which isn't particularly powerful), I got terrible buffering problems when I started playing back music. These stopped when I disabled the plug-in again, so I've had to leave

I set threeline via the sc web interface - Settings - Player tab - Display. I have threeline as the standby and font. It might be possible to force the font size as part of the startup and shutdown routines of the plugin, but I have no idea how, if anybody knows drop me a line Cheers --
