Hello, can this be fixed ? Weather Plugin time format error.jpg
You would have to contact the plugin author (no idea who it is) to get it fixed. I just checked it on my H7S and it worked fine so it may be a problem with the skin you are using.
Zgemma H7S running OpenVIX 6.2, Darkmotor, Triax TD110 dish, Inverto Black Ultra dual lnb
LG 50UM7450 4K TV, Pioneer VSX-534 Atmos AVR , Panasonic UB820 region free 4K Bluray & a PS4.
I have tried several skins and the error stays. When testing with OpenMultiboot and OpenATV it works, so it must have something to do with OpenViX itself.
@ronand - which skin works for you?
works for me Xtrend 10k, Vix 5.4.004, vix-night-HD (1280x720) skin - and seems to work whatever the time setting (menu -> setup -> time -> time style)Originally Posted by ccs

It has something to do with the language selection. When I select User Interface -> Language from Suomi (Finland) to English (UK) it works. Maybe some developer can check it ?Weather plugin.jpg
I think the problem is in this file : \Root\usr\lib\locale\fi_FI\LC_TIME, there is time format %H.%M.%S and in \Root\usr\lib\locale\en_GB\LC_TIME it is %H:%M:%S. How I can edit that file to test ?
.... it's a binary file, I doubt that you can edit it easily.
Those files haven't changed for over 3 years, they'll probably be part of the image build process.
And who knows what might stop working if you did make the change?

Took a while for me to work out that the time style option doesn't show in the simple_1080 skin.
I’m not sure that this is the cause as I’ve just changed all the colons in the English/GB and English/English versions with full stops, uploaded the file to my box and have rebooted the box. My version of the Weather plug-in still works without shown a time error message.
However you may want to try with the Finnish file.
Download and install a hex editor such HxD HEX Editor
https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/
MAKE A BACKUP OF THE LC_time file
In Hxd Hex Editor open the LC_time file
From the top menu bar select search
In the search window that appears select the “Hex-values” tab
Search for “2E” (2E = . and 3A =
Replace the appropriate 2E with 3A and save the file
You can manually highlight 2E and type 3A or you can use the search/replace menu item.
One window will show the Hex (binary) code AND an ASCII translation which you can identify H:M:S etc.

That should read
Search for “2E” (2E = . and 3A =
2E = a full stop
3A = a colon

The closing bracket turned it into a smiley! Like this
Code tags would have resolved the issue

Hello, I made a test by copying LC_TIME file from \Root\usr\lib\locale\en_GB\ to \Root\usr\lib\locale\fi_FI\, but same time format error. So localization is done somewhere else or the error is caused by plugin itself. I give up...
... did you reboot the box after making the change?
I did a few test with replacing the colon in the H:M:S fields with full stops and rebooting after uploading the changed file. It made no difference to my working weather plugin - it still worked indicating the difference in the LC_time files for each language is probably not the cause of the problem.
