yahoo weather at 2 soundbridges

hi,

great script, works at my soundbridge perfectly.
Now, I have a second soundbridge M1001. It would be wonderful, when I can also get the weather there? What do I have to change in the config and perl file?

Any ideas.

thanks

I modified the perl script as follows

# SPF - allow to pass IP from command line
my $roku = '192.168.100.141';
if ($#ARGV >= 0) { $roku = $ARGV[0]; }

# adjust IP adress of your roku here
my $display = RokuUI->new(host => $roku, port => 4444);

# select in which mode the RokuTools shall start (e.g. after reboot)
my $modus = 0;

# write your location here (see http://weather.yahoo.com/ for your location code)
# SPF - allow to pass station code from command line
my $locationid = "UKXX0018";
if ($#ARGV > 0) { $locationid = $ARGV[1]; }

and then run the script with ip address and weather station as parameters for each of my soundbridges.

hi sonichouse,

thanks for your reply... all is working great. I have modified the files as follows:

t4local:
# write your location here (see http://weather.yahoo.com/ for your location code)
our $locationid = "xxxxxx"; 
if ($ARGV > 0) { $locationid = $ARGV[1]; }

t4roku.pl
my $roku = '111.222.333.444;  # your IP
if ($ARGV >= 0) { $roku = $ARGV[0]; }
my $display = RokuUI->new(host => $roku, port => 4444);

cleanroku.pl
my $roku = '111.222.333.444';  #your IP
if ($#ARGV >= 0) { $roku = $ARGV[0]; } 
my $display = RokuUI->new(host => $roku, port => 4444);

But I have one problem, when I press 3x home at my soundbridge remote control, there does not happen anything. I can not switch between rokuweather, shutdown mt-daapd server, set an alarm, set SB to sleep mode.
Any idea why?

thanks a lot for the help....great script, great work
