Default Plug ins For Uk Weather and RSS feeds

I was a little bit put out that all the weather forecasts on My Dreambox 7025 were for Every other country but the UK, So I have written the attached little file for anyone who wants to use it for the UK, If you like it and your town/city isnt on it let me know and I will add it in, Hope you like it.

You need Dreambox Control Centre to ftp it, you need to unzip it first, It needs to replace the weather.xml file in etc/weather
You then select Extras/Settings on the Blue Panel, Then select RSS Reader / Weather then when you press the red button you can make your selection of either your town or city or the closest to you, If you press your right button it will give you the weather for up to 10 days.

Also found that the rss feeds were also German so I made the attached file for all UK rss feeds covering news sport etc for England Ireland scotland Wales, Unzip file and ftp it to etc/ folder replaceing feeds.xml with new file, restart enigma
Attached Files
File Type: zip weather.zip (597 Bytes, 17 views)
File Type: zip feeds.zip (751 Bytes, 13 views)

Yes, very useful for Dreamboxers - I've used something similar with the D-Box: Tuxwetter.
