Weather module degrees in celcius?

[pootle]

is there an option to turn the temprature measurement from oF to oC on the latest version of weather? I really need this as oC is what I'm used to.

I know on the website that you just postfix the url with

&setunit=C

can i do that somewhere? has this already been done?

ah just noticed that if i ad &setunit=c to the actual name in the plugin settings It will display the weather in -1 but the skin has it hardcoded to -1oF just need to make the changes in the XML.

Would be good to have it selectable though!

In the weather config you can check the display in SI units check box and it will convert everything to SI units, temperature wind speed, visibility, etc.

i tried that but for some reason the numbers dont change ie wellington weather was 77oF but when changed the SI Units it was 77oC which is way out. any ideas ?

You could try posting your gbpvr.exe.log file; maybe there is an error in their somewhere. Two other things to try. Control F (fast forward on the remote) will toggle the display between F and C without changing the configureation setting. Control R (the red button) will refresh the reading. You might try playing with tese to see if it will display the right thing. For test purposes I do everything in C and Wellington is one of my test cities. it loosk fine for me.

Hi; same problem here (sort of): if I change the units in config, it shows F or C next to the number, which is always in F (i.e., where I live the temperature is 14C but is showing 57C because 14C=57F). Cheers.
