Outer Portal Weather

[Android Man]

I see many people having trouble trying to figure out how to get their weather to show on the Mag254 on the outer portal.
Really I guess people don't look around to much lol
Its easy.

Do this..
While you are on the outer portal where you see TV...video club etc go to "Settings" click ok on remote.
Now go to "Localization" click ok on remote.
Place all your local info in everything.

Language...(what you speak)
Country...(what country your in)
City...(the city or town you live in)
Time zone....(your area time zone)

When done just click ok on the bottom right corner...you will now see your local weather on the outer portal.

See how simple this is lol.
I did this a few months ago when I first got my Mag 254 from xbmcfreaks.com

you have to go to embedded = inner portal to change weather to F rather than C, and then it still shows C in outer portal but will give you F in your inner portal weather..

[Nick15]

Yes, this is my experience as well.

In setting the weather, I can change everything but the City. It's permanently stuck on Abbeville. When I try to change it to another city, the time zone changes. Any suggestions?

[Marley]

I get to change the city but dont have one i want just type it in

[Kerruptor]

Weather works fine on the inner portal. You can type your city in and it will accept it. On the outer portal when you type in your city, if it isn't in the database it won't accept it. You end up having to use somewhere nearby. I have my city weather on the inner but the outer won't allow my hometown and I have to use a place that is close but not the same weather.

My problem exactly!

[satviewing]

Well I was trying on HTC one phone and it is very difficult to select anything but I dont need to worry too much.

[radmacks]

This does not work on emu version the portal settings just freezes

[K00lKatT]

If the weather is that important to you...just stick your head out the door...LOL

they have an APP that makes your android phone able to transfer audio conversations.
Yup, an APP to make your phone into a phone :)


lmao.. in all fairness it prolly be good APP for Ipads and etc.. but so far I only see it thru android handheld devices, like phones :)

A good one !!!!

[Tony47nv]

just go to the weather channel

[theuduk]

Find can get weather of local city if fairly large in outer portal, inner portal can be very local even village.

[Bkman2020]

look out the window and guess lol

[ladila]

Wow! What helpers we have....a real bunch of B-B's. I must say that I love the "stick out" comment.....excellent!

[wildbill]

Buy a WIFI external key board and will make box work better and programming easier. These have a USB dongle that plugs into box for control.

[Marley]

weather works better for me where you setup the box up the outer portal is hit and miss for cities

[royalhornet]

Move to Abbeville and all your problems will be solved :p

[spdklls99]

i just add whatever number is showing to 32 to get fahrenheit..or subtract if - is there ...would think infomir would have addressed this in at least one of their updates by now

[K00lKatT]

this is incorrect, the spacing between degrees F & C is different. Wiki has the formula. F is 32 is freezing and 212 is boiling, C is 0 is freezing and 100 is boiling

[catz]

Cx2+30 will get you very close.

[nada233]

the formula is from celcius to farenheits 32+ 9/5 mfrom farenheits is -32 5/9 .

[Marley]

thats why we in america give that up many yrs ago to dumb lol

[crazed 9.6]

celcious is easy
0 = freezing

anything below 0 is more freezing. Anything above is not freezing.

Freeze equals when water turns to ice.

Many people try and figure out what is 20 degrees celcicous in feirnhiht..
I am older and when I went to school and many years after we as canadians used standard. An inch was an inch.
No confussion
Then comes metric
Mass confusion in my 12 year old brain.

But

it was easy. Do not try and convert it.
Zero is zero
1 mm x 10 equals 1 cm
1 cm x 10 equals 1 m
1 m x 10 equals 1 thing that is 10 meters long :)

point is , that it is simple based equation. Not like 32 equal zereo. What is that ... :)
Same as the temperature thing. Zereo is zero, or 12 inches in a foot and 3 feet in a yard. A yard is almost same as a meter. Which makes a meter almost the same as 3 feet
And you know what 3 makes... a yard :)

that standard equation is tough to work with

[crazed 9.6]

1 meter x 1000 equals 1 km
1 km is about sixth tenths of a mile

[crazed 9.6]

example

at 100 km per hour (highway speed of 60 miles per hour)..
You can travel 350 km at that speed of 100 km per hr
how long will that take you É

now try that same calculation in standrad and miles and stuff... you will never come up with answer as fast or easy.

[nada233]

lol,wow now I know why I am having problem with them formulas lol.know metric very well but imperial is another story.

The obvious truth about this outer portal and the weather or time settings is that the people that programmed it lacked the vision that would allow us the proper, user-friendly options for complete setup of all of the given features; or - in other words...the software is incomplete at best! :( Hopefully, it will eventually get better; but, my experience with this iptv so far says, "Don't hold yer breath on that one!"
Couldn't find any way to adjust the time and date. Closest I found was a timeshift option (that there is NO info on whatsoever as to it's proper use/function). For the weather - the smartest/easiest option would have been to simply allow us to enter our zip code - Du-u-uh!
The advertisement for this new iptv stuff TOTALLY overplayed what we are actually getting stuck with here.
My opinion: The people that are supposed to be giving us what we want here are clearly amateurs at best!
All we can do at this point is keep our heads up and hope for the best - as in maybe they'll eventually hire someone that actually knows what he/she is doing with this stuff! :cool:

[danemer]

So forget watching TV then, let's just play with our calculaors instead! :p

you can do that elsewhere, not here.
good-bye

Where is this? can't find it.

[nitrococu]

I can't set the weather. In my portal settings, there is no single country, city, time zone to choose. Only option I have in language settings is "english". What is the problem ?
