(This is not an addon for Kodi itself, rather it is an addon for Logitech Media Server). <br />
<br />
It allows you to display Kodi Now Playing information on Squeezebox hardware - supports SB2, SB3, SB Classic, Transporter and probably even SliMP3 - basically any line based players.<br />
<br />
Here you can see it in action showing the time remaining on a video file, displayed on a Squeezebox 3:<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
You may also be interested in a companion project - a '2nd Screen' system to display Kodi Now Playing and Australian Weather information (again, source from the BOM). Information on that is [https://github.com/bossanova808/kodi.ozweather.2nd.screen here].<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/OSMC/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this:<br />
<br />

File:OzWeather_V2_Estuary.jpg|OzWeather in Estuary<br />
File:OzWeather V2 Confluence.jpg|...in Confluence<br />
File:OzWeather-Amber.jpg|...in Amber<br />
</gallery><br />
<br />
...you get the idea... (all of these are using the SkinPatcher mentioned below to customise the Weather section)<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, OSMC, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this MUCH easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable by the addon''' for this to work (for the -elec version of Kodi, see below, and if you're on some Android platforms, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. With Confluence either the Info (i) or Menu (m) will bring it up, with Estuary just the Menu (m). It looks roughly like this:<br />
<br />

<br />
'''Using Corelec / LibreElec with Estuary?'''<br />
<br />
In the case of the -Elec Kodis, unfortunately the main skin folder is not writeable. This is unfortunately just part of how the -elec versions of Kodi are set up. Here are your options:<br />
* Don't use Estuary! Use one of the other supported skins (as, let's face it, Estuary is a low point for Kodi default skins anyway, so you're not missing much...) <br />
* Or - create your own version of Estuary. Copy the whole estuary folder into your (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mymod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mymod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
You may also be interested in a companion project - a '2nd Screen' system to display Kodi Now Playing and Australian Weather information (again, source from the BOM). Information on that is [https://github.com/bossanova808/kodi.ozweather.2nd.screen here].<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this:<br />

File:OzWeather V2 Confluence.jpg|...in Confluence<br />
File:OzWeather-Amber.jpg|...in Amber<br />
</gallery><br />
<br />
...you get the idea... (all of these are using the SkinPatcher mentioned below to customise the Weather section)<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, OSMC, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this MUCH easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable by the addon''' for this to work (for the -elec version of Kodi, see below, and if you're on some Android platforms, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />

* Or - create your own version of Estuary. Copy the whole estuary folder into your (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mymod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mymod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
You may also be interested in a companion project - a '2nd Screen' system to display Kodi Now Playing and Australian Weather information (again, source from the BOM). Information on that is [https://github.com/bossanova808/kodi.ozweather.2nd.screen here].<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />

<br />
...and here's Amber:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather-Amber.jpg" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable by the addon''' for this to work (for the -elec version of Kodi, see below, and if you're on some Android platforms, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. With Confluence either the Info (i) or Menu (m) will bring it up, with Estuary just the Menu (m). It looks roughly like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/main/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/PlaybackRadar.png" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
<br />
'''Using Corelec / LibreElec with Estuary?'''<br />
<br />
In the case of the -Elec Kodis, unfortunately the main skin folder is not writeable. This is unfortunately just part of how the -elec versions of Kodi are set up. Here are your options:<br />
* Don't use Estuary! Use one of the other supported skins (as, let's face it, Estuary is a low point for Kodi default skins anyway, so you're not missing much...) <br />
* Or - create your own version of Estuary. To to this, start by running the skin patcher once after making the folder writeable, as above. Then copy the whole estuary folder into the (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />

new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
You may also be interested in a companion project - a '2nd Screen' system to display Kodi Now Playing and Australian Weather information (again, source from the BOM). Information on that is [https://github.com/bossanova808/dash.vite.alpine.tailwind here].<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />

<br />
...and here's Amber:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather-Amber.jpg" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. With Confluence either the Info (i) or Menu (m) will bring it up, with Estuary just the Menu (m). It looks roughly like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/main/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/PlaybackRadar.png" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
<br />
'''Using Corelec / LibreElec with Estuary?'''<br />
<br />
In the case of the -Elec Kodis, unfortunately the main skin folder is not writeable. This is unfortunately just part of how the -elec versions of Kodi are set up. Here are your options:<br />
* Don't use Estuary! Use one of the other supported skins (as, let's face it, Estuary is a low point for Kodi default skins anyway, so you're not missing much...) <br />
* Or - create your own version of Estuary. To to this, start by running the skin patcher once after making the folder writeable, as above. Then copy the whole estuary folder into the (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />

If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<section begin="intro" />The primary usage of artwork is to be displayed, and to that end, they can be accessed by name in skins and over JSON-RPC.<section end="intro" /><br />
<br />
Media items with a "parent" media type, such as episodes to their TV show, can also access their parent's artwork with certain prefixes, like "tvshow.poster".<br />
<br />
= From skins =<br />
<br />
Skins can access library artwork for media items in a list with "ListItem.Art(<arttype>)" and artwork for the currently playing item with "Player.Art(<arttype>)". "Container.Art(<arttype>)" can also be filled in some instances. Some examples are {{code|Player.Art(poster)}}, {{code|Player.Art(fanart)}}, {{code|ListItem.Art(banner)}}, and {{code|ListItem.Art(tvshow.clearlogo)}}.<br />

<br />
= From JSON-RPC =<br />
<br />
Several JSON-RPC methods (like "VideoLibrary.GetMovies", "AudioLibrary.GetAlbumDetails", and "Playlist.GetItems") return info for media items in the library, and requesting the "art" property will return an "art" dictionary that maps all available artwork for the media item. The key is the artwork type and the value is a Kodi-encoded URL or path to the assigned artwork.<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
<br />
example request:<br />
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":11,"method":"VideoLibrary.GetEpisodes","params":{"properties":["art"],"limits":{"end":1},"sort":{"method":"random"}}}<br />
<br />
and a possible response:<br />
{<br />

<br />
== Kodi-encoded URL ==<br />
<br />
The image paths returned by JSON-RPC are the path or URL to the image encoded as Kodi's internal "image://" path.<br />
<br />
To turn that path into a URL that can actually be displayed in another application, you will need to encode it as a URI component (examples are [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/encodeURIComponent encodeURIComponent] in JS and [https://docs.python.org/3/library/urllib.parse.html#urllib.parse.quote urllib.parse.quote] in Python 3), then add that to the end of the "image/" path of the Kodi HTTP server (like <nowiki>http://kodihost:8080/image/</nowiki>). With these URLs you can display images wherever they happen to be stored; Kodi will handle opening a file over SMB or NFS if they are stored on a NAS next to the media items, for instance.<br />
<br />
The final URL will look like <br />
<br />
<nowiki>http://kodihost:8080/image/image%3A%2F%2Fnfs%253a%252f%252fCUBER%252fmedia%252fpreserved%252fTVShows%252fV%2520(2009)%252fposter.jpg%2F</nowiki><br />
<br />
You can also turn the "image://" URL into a more traditional looking path/URL (https:// or smb:// or H:\) by chopping off the "image://" up front and the slash at the end, then decoding the rest as a URI component.<br />
<br />
= Access "parent" artwork =<br />
<br />
For several media types, it is possible to access artwork for the "parent" media item as well as the item's own artwork. This works for skins and JSON-RPC. For instance, TV episodes can access the artwork for the containing season and TV show. Use "<parenttype>.<arttype>" as the art type.<br />

<br />
== Example artwork types ==<br />
<br />
Here is a short list of example artwork types and how to access them. Kodi's artwork system allows any number of artwork types, so it's impossible to list all that may be available here. See the artwork pages for different library sections like [[Movie artwork]] or [[Music artwork]] for a list of generally available artwork types, or navigate to image 2 of [[Artwork#Kodi- Choose Art]] on a media item in your local Kodi installation to see what types of artwork are currently available for at least one of that media type in your local library.<br />

<br />
= {{Kodi}} version updates =<br />
<br />
* The '''music library''' in {{Kodi}} 17 and before was '''limited to just "fanart" and "thumb" for artist images''' and '''"thumb" for album images''', it did not have the flexibility to add a wide variety of artwork. The video library has had this level of support for some time now.<br />
* {{Kodi}} 18 adds a '''[[Advancedsettings.xml#Music library extra artwork| whitelist in advancedsettings.xml]]''' ([[Advancedsettings.xml#Extra artwork|for the video library]]) so that {{Kodi}} will add any specified artwork from scrapers and the file system automatically.<br />

Kodi includes the ability to connect to user-published or ''third-party'' add-on repositories which provide untrusted add-ons, unlike those found in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]]. Shown below are listings of some of the more widely-known such repositories.<br />
<br />
== Information for add-on developers ==<br />
'''''{{Big|Please consider:}}'''''<br />
:* '''{{Big|Applying to [[Submitting Add-ons|have your add-on included]] in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]].}}'''<br />
:* If it does not meet the required conditions, consider contacting the owner of an existing unofficial repository and ask if they would be willing to let you distribute your add-on from there.<br />
:* You can also create your own repository. See [[Add-on repositories|Add-on repositories]], and then add it to the table below for it to show up in the Repositories Installer Add-on.<br />
<br />
'''''{{Big|Also, be advised that:}}'''''<br />
:* {{Big|The '''[[Official:Forum_rules|forum rules]]''' on '''[[Official:Forum rules/Banned add-ons|piracy content]]''' apply to the wiki as well!}}<br />
:* When adding entries to the table, it should be organized ''alphabetically'' according to the ''Repository Name'' column, and the descriptions must be as ''concise'' and ''accurate'' as possible.<br />
<br />
== How to install additional add-on repositories ==<br />
You can install individual repositories by following the same process as described for '''[[Add-on manager#How to install from a ZIP file|installing an add-on from a ZIP file]]'''.<br />

<br />
Kodi includes the ability to connect to user-published or ''third-party'' add-on repositories which provide untrusted add-ons, unlike those found in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]]. Shown below are listings of some of the more widely-known such repositories.<br />
<br />
== Information for add-on developers ==<br />
'''''{{Big|Please consider:}}'''''<br />
:* '''{{Big|Applying to [[Submitting Add-ons|have your add-on included]] in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]].}}'''<br />
:* If it does not meet the required conditions, consider contacting the owner of an existing unofficial repository and ask if they would be willing to let you distribute your add-on from there.<br />
:* You can also create your own repository. See [[Add-on repositories|Add-on repositories]], and then add it to the table below for it to show up in the Repositories Installer Add-on.<br />
<br />
'''''{{Big|Also, be advised that:}}'''''<br />
:* {{Big|The '''[[Official:Forum_rules|forum rules]]''' on '''[[Official:Forum rules/Banned add-ons|piracy content]]''' apply to the wiki as well!}}<br />
:* When adding entries to the table, it should be organized ''alphabetically'' according to the ''Repository Name'' column, and the descriptions must be as ''concise'' and ''accurate'' as possible.<br />
<br />
== How to install additional add-on repositories ==<br />
You can install individual repositories by following the same process as described for '''[[Add-on manager#How to install from a ZIP file|installing an add-on from a ZIP file]]'''.<br />
<br />
To access the contents of the newly installed repository, from the home screen browse to: '''<samp>Add-ons â–¶ Install from repository â–¶ <var>Repository name</var></samp>'''<br />
<br />

<br />
Kodi includes the ability to connect to user-published or ''third-party'' add-on repositories which provide untrusted add-ons, unlike those found in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]]. Shown below are listings of some of the more widely-known such repositories.<br />
<br />
== Information for add-on developers ==<br />
'''''{{Big|Please consider:}}'''''<br />
:* '''{{Big|Applying to [[Submitting Add-ons|have your add-on included]] in the [[Official add-on repository|official add-on repository]].}}'''<br />
:* If it does not meet the required conditions, consider contacting the owner of an existing unofficial repository and ask if they would be willing to let you distribute your add-on from there.<br />
:* You can also create your own repository. See [[Add-on repositories|Add-on repositories]], and then add it to the table below for it to show up in the Repositories Installer Add-on.<br />
<br />
'''''{{Big|Also, be advised that:}}'''''<br />
:* {{Big|The '''[[Official:Forum_rules|forum rules]]''' on '''[[Official:Forum rules/Banned add-ons|piracy content]]''' apply to the wiki as well!}}<br />
:* When adding entries to the table, it should be organized ''alphabetically'' according to the ''Repository Name'' column, and the descriptions must be as ''concise'' and ''accurate'' as possible.<br />
<br />
== How to install additional add-on repositories ==<br />
You can install individual repositories by following the same process as described for '''[[Add-on manager#How to install from a ZIP file|installing an add-on from a ZIP file]]'''.<br />
<br />
To access the contents of the newly installed repository, from the home screen browse to: '''<samp>Add-ons â–¶ Install from repository â–¶ <var>Repository name</var></samp>'''<br />
<br />
== Unofficial repositories ==<br />

<br />
(This is not an addon for Kodi itself, rather it is an addon for Logitech Media Server). <br />
<br />
It allows you to display Kodi Now Playing information on Squeezebox hardware - supports SB2, SB3, SB Classic, Transporter and probably even SliMP3 - basically any line based players.<br />
<br />
Here you can see it in action showing the time remaining on a video file, displayed on a Squeezebox 3:<br />
<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.squeeze.bossanova808/blob/main/downloads/Other%20Downloads/Images/XSD-800x592.jpg?raw=true"><br />
<br />
<br />
To install this repo on your Logitech Media Server, go to LMS->Settings->Plugins and add this repo at the end:<br />
<br />
http://github.com/bossanova808/repository.squeeze.bossanova808/raw/master/staging/repo.xml<br />
<br />
Restart your LMS. You should then be able to install the addon from the repo and will receive updates automatically etc. <br />
<br />
To configure the addon and see instructions, go to LMS->Settings->Plugins->XSqueezeDisplay->Settings.<br />
<br />
'''N.B'''<br />
<br />
You must have the perl module IO::Socket::SSL installed to download the addon from the repo (as github redirects everything to SSL). Seems to be present by default usually anyway on most common LMS systems (tested on Win7 and Linux Mint 17 with LMS 7.7+). If you need to install it, there is a guide to installing modules [http://www.cpan.org/modules/INSTALL.html here].<br />
<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />
<br />

<br />
....or if you're old school and still using Confluence like me:<br />

<br />
...and here's Amber:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather-Amber.jpg" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. With Confluence either the Info (i) or Menu (m) will bring it up, with Estuary just the Menu (m). It looks roughly like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/main/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/PlaybackRadar.png" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
<br />
'''Using Corelec / LibreElec with Estuary?'''<br />
<br />
In the case of the -Elec Kodis, unfortunately the main skin folder is not writeable. You have several options for dealing with this:<br />
* Don't use Estuary! Use one of the other supported skins (as, let's face it, Estuary is a low point for Kodi default skins anyway, so you're not missing much...) <br />
* SSH in to your box and remount the skin folder as writeable, ''then'' run the skin patcher (would need to repeat each time Estuary gets an update) - the command to remount would be: mount -o remount,rw /usr<br />
* Or - create your own version of Estuary. To to this, start by running the skin patcher once after making the folder writeable, as above. Then copy the whole estuary folder into the (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />

This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />

<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/main/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/PlaybackRadar.png" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
<br />
'''Using Corelec / LibreElec with Estuary?'''<br />
<br />
In the case of the -Elec Kodis, unfortunately the main skin folder is not writeable. You have several options for dealing with this:<br />
* Don't use Estuary! Use one of the other supported skins (as, let's face it, Estuary is a low point for Kodi default skins anyway, so you're not missing much...) <br />
* SSH in to your box and remount the skin folder as writeable, ''then'' run the skin patcher (would need to repeat each time Estuary gets an update) - the command to remount would be: mount -o remount,rw /usr<br />
* Or - create your own version of Estuary. To to this, start by running the skin patcher once after making the folder writeable, as above. Then copy the whole estuary folder into the (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />

<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/main/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/PlaybackRadar.png" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
<br />
'''Using Corelec / LibreElec with Estuary?'''<br />
<br />
In the case of the -Elec Kodis, unfortunately the main skin folder is not writeable. You have several options for dealing with this:<br />
* Don't use Estuary! Use one of the other supported skins (as, let's face it, Estuary is a low point for Kodi default skins anyway, so you're not missing much...)<br />
* SSH in to your box and remount the skin folder as writeable, then run the skin patcher (would need to repeat each time Estuary gets an update) - the command to remount is: mount -o remount,rw /whatever<br />
* Or - create your own version of Estuary. To to this, start by running the skin patcher once after making the folder writeable, as above. Then copy the whole estuary folder into the (writeable) addons folder, modifying the addon id in addon.xml to give your version a unique name (e.g. skin.estuary-mod). To then keep your special version of the skin up to date, create a script and set it up to run by cron (or alternatively add these commands to your autostart.sh if you're using one of those) - with the following content (changing the folder name to whatever you've named your personal skin of course):<br />
<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
rsync -a --exclude 'addon.xml' --exclude 'MyWeather.xml' --exclude 'VideoFullScreen.xml' /usr/share/kodi/addons/skin.estuary/ /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.estuary-mod/<br />
/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/kodi-send -a ReloadSkin<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<hr />
<div><section begin="intro"/>'''Network File System''', or '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System_%28protocol%29 NFS]''', is a way to share folders over a network, and was added to XBMC in v11 (Eden). The main benefits of using NFS instead of SMB are its low protocol overhead (which allows it to send data across a network more quickly) and its use of simple [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_identifier UID's] to authenticate users rather than username/password combinations. This part bears repeating, as many people are confused on this point and try to create usernames and passwords to get Kodi to work with NFS: '''NFS does not use usernames or passwords as logins;''' it uses a UNIX-based "userID" (UID) alone.<section end="intro"/><br />
<br />
NFS's main disadvantage in comparison to SMB (a commonly-encountered protocol in Windows environments) is that it can be more complicated to set up in some cases, since many non-technical users are unfamiliar with configuring UNIX-based protocols.<br />
<br />
NFS is commonly found on all Linux/UNIX distributions, as well as on OS X and Solaris, and offers several features:<br />
:* It is already incorporated in UNIX-like operating systems (such as OS X), eliminating the need for additional software and services to be installed on your computer.<br />
:* It allows for authentication by UID, thus eliminating the need to save usernames and passwords in XBMC source XML files (note, however, that this simple authentication also makes it more vulnerable to attacks; NFS should be only used inside a private LAN).<br />
:* Once properly configured, NFS will allow your network shares to be seen and accessed by not only Kodi, but also any other machine on your network.<br />
<br />
;{{note|If you already have a working NFS server check that the export options required by Kodi have been set (as described in the relevant section below).}} <br />
<br />
When configuring NFS shares to use as network sources for Kodi's music/video libraries, use the following format: '''nfs://1.2.3.4/path/to/folder''' (where "1.2.3.4" should be replaced with the IP of your NFS server, and "/path/to/folder" should be replaced with the path to the folder you want to share; a double slash between the server and the path is wrong, you '''should not''' use nfs://1.2.3.4//path/to/folder). See the sections below for help configuring NFS shares on various devices' operating systems.<br />
<br />
For more info on network sources for your music and video in Kodi, see Types of Media Sources.<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from Windows ==<br />
Windows does not have any built-in native ability to share folders via NFS; and only a limited selection of Windows operating systems have the native ability to access NFS shares as a client. However, several third-party solutions attempt to provide NFS functionality, on both the server side and the client side.<br />
<br />
For ''serving'' (sharing) files from Windows using NFS, there seem to be three choices:<br />
:* Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2012 have built-in NFS Server and Client through Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA). With 64-bit support, this solution supports files up to 4TB in size<br />
:* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows_Services_for_UNIX Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX (SFU)] available [http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=274 here]for Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional (NOT Home edition, without a [http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=1434 hexedit hack]), Windows 2003 Server, and Windows Home Server (based on 2003 Server). SFU is 32-bit only, which ''may'' mean it only supports files up to 2GB in size, [http://www.suacommunity.com/SUA_Tools_Env_Start.htm#_Toc203389873 according to some sources] (this is unconfirmed). A good installation guide can be found [http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=1434 here]. Windows SFU will not install on Windows Vista or Windows 7, so there is no way to ''serve'' NFS from Windows Vista or Windows 7 with the possible exception of the haneWIN solution below, but it is unconfirmed if that works with Windows Vista/7.<br />
:* [http://www.hanewin.net/nfs-e.htm haneWIN NFS Server for Windows] - a shareware program that costs 19EUR for non-commercial use. Claims to work for "Windows 2000 and above."<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from OS X ==<br />
NFS is built into Mac OS X (OS 10.5 and later), and thus no additional software is required to set up NFS shares on a Mac OS X device.<br />
<br />
;{{note|The following assumes some basic knowledge of the UNIX/BSD operating system interface and environment, and assumes you are familiar with using a Mac's Terminal command-line utility. It also assumes you have a beginner's understanding of UNIX text editors such as [http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/reu/nano.html nano] or [http://www.eng.hawaii.edu/Tutor/vi.html vi].}}<br />
<br />
1. To allow regular (non-root) users to connect to your NFS shared folders, you'll need to edit the "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist" file. Open it and add the option "-N" to the startup parameters as follows: <br />
<br />
<array><br />
<string>/sbin/nfsd</string><br />
'''<string>-N</string>'''<br />
</array><br />
<br />
If you don't do this step, Kodi will only be able to access the Mac's shared NFS folders if Kodi is running as root (normally, Kodi does not run as root, so you will almost certainly want to do this first step and add the -N parameter).<br />
<br />
2. The NFS server and its shared folders are set up in a config file named "exports", located in the /etc directory. Technically speaking, with NFS you "export a path" rather than "share a folder" (which is why the file is named "exports"), but we'll use the latter phrasing for simplicity's sake.<br />
<br />
The /etc/exports file may not yet exist; if not, you'll need to create it. The file is edited either manually (in Terminal, using a UNIX text editor such as '''nano''' or '''vi''') or via a GUI utility, the most well-known of which is [http://www.bresink.com/osx/NFSManager.html NFS Manager]. The following guide assumes you are using Terminal (if using NFS Manager, consult that software's documentation for help).<br />
<br />
To view the current contents of /etc/exports, if any, execute the following command in a Terminal window:<br />
<br />
'''cat /etc/exports'''<br />
<br />
Any folders to be shared via NFS should be listed on separate lines, along with any configuration parameters governing connections to those folders. The lines should follow this general format:<br />
<br />
/path/to/folder_name_to_share [-parameter1 -parameter2 ...] <IP address restriction (optional)><br />
<br />
<big>Examples</big><br />
<br />
In this sample /etc/exports file, we've set up four folders to be shared via NFS, using various parameters and options. The folders are all contained in a folder called "nfs_shares", and are named to indicate some things about how we've set them up; obviously, on your system, the folder names would be things like "video", "music", and so on.<br />
<br />
/nfs_shares/allread -ro -mapall=nobody -alldirs<br />
/nfs_shares/allwrite -mapall=nobody -alldirs -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0<br />
/nfs_shares/writeAs501 -mapall=501 -alldirs 192.168.1.5<br />
/nfs_shares/Kodiuser<br />
<br />
Let's look at what each of these shared folder configurations means.<br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/allread'''" can be accessed from all computers (because no IP address is given), is read-only ("'''-ro'''"), and all incoming connections are assigned the same permissions as the UNIX user "nobody", who has anonymous access ("'''-mapall=nobody'''"). This last parameter ensures that anyone can access the folder, but they will not have any rights on your NFS server other than those belonging to the "nobody" user. Also, the "'''-alldirs'''" parameter is used to indicate that incoming connections can mount either the /allread folder OR any subfolder underneath /allread.<br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/allwrite'''" can be accessed from all computers on the subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, has read and write permissions (we've omitted "'''-ro'''"), and again access rights for user "nobody" are assigned ("'''-mapall=nobody'''"). The "'''-alldirs'''" parameter is once again used to allow subfolders to be mounted directly.<br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/writeAs501'''" can be accessed from the computer with an IP of 192.168.1.5, has read and write permissions (again we've omitted "'''-ro'''"), and access rights belonging to users on your system with a UID of 501 (see note below) will be inherited by all incoming connections ('''-mapall=501'''). The "'''-alldirs'''" parameter is once again used to allow subfolders to be mounted directly.<br />
<br />
:;{{note|As already mentioned, authentication to the NFS server is done by checking UIDs. For Kodi, this means that the UID which the Kodi process is running under is given to the NFS server to be authenticated. To find out your current UID, just type "id" into a console:}}<br />
<br />
Mac:~ [''your_user_name'']$ '''id'''<br />
<br />
::You should see something that begins like this:<br />
<br />
uid=501(''your_user_name'')<br />
<br />
:In this example, my UID is 501. If you are going to be connecting to your NFS shared folder from Kodi on iOS, keep in mind that on iOS Kodi runs as the user "mobile", which should have UID 501 also. <br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/Kodiuser'''" can be accessed from all computers ('''no ip given'''), readwrite (no "'''-ro'''") and the access rights belonging to the UID which is connecting to the NFS server are used ("'''-mapall'''" removed). <br />
;{{note|The important effect of the absence of the -mapall parameter in this case: if someone connects to your NFS server as root, they will be running on your system as root! Also note that because "-alldirs" is not specified, incoming connections will only be able to connect to the /Kodiuser folder, NOT any folders underneath it.}}<br />
<br />
Bear in mind that any UID's that are used to connect to the NFS server, or that are specified with "-mapall", have to exist on your NFS server (i.e. on your Mac).<br />
<br />
'''Each change on the exports config file needs a restart of the nfs server! Just issue "sudo nfsd restart" for this.'''<br />
<br />
3. Once you've configured and saved your /etc/exports file, the NFS server can be started either by rebooting or by executing the following command:<br />
<br />
$ sudo nfsd start<br />
<br />
=== Troubleshooting NFS on OS X ===<br />
<br />
==== -N flag is set, but shares still won’t work ====<br />
<br />
Sometimes there are issues with NFS shares on OS X. Most of them result in the <code>-N</code> flag not being set, but they result in different error messages or issues. One of the root issues is the flag being set in the Property List file, but not read by launchd which controls the process. The following observations are pretty common in this case and if you see one of these points, it won’t hurt to either inspect the nfsd process on your Mac or restart the whole computer.<br />
<br />
* You have successfully shared the volume and you can mount it from other Macs in your network (via ⌘K in the Finder), but not from Kodi.<br />
* You can add the computer share (e.g. <code>nfs://192.168.1.5/</code>), but not the share that contains a path (e.g. <code>nfs://192.168.1.5/nfs_shares/allread</code>).<br />
* When you add the computer share, you can enter it in Kodi’s browser, but then clicking on one of the mount points does nothing.<br />
* You see either '''"Server responded: Procedure not available"''' or '''"RPC Packet not accepted by the server"''' in the error logs.<br />
<br />
In most cases it’s sufficient to restart nfsd via launchd, just killing the process with <code>kill -9</code> or <code>killall nfsd</code> after applying changes to the Property List file has no effects. To restart nfsd via launchd you have to type the following command in the Terminal:<br />
<br />
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist && \<br />
sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist<br />
<br />
When you use <code>ps</code> to inspect the process, <code>-N</code> should be visible at the end of the line. If it’s not, then launchd didn’t apply the changes and just (re-)started nfsd with the old configuration. A proper output looks like this:<br />
<br />
~ '''ps aux | grep nfsd'''<br />
root 55828 0,0 0,0 2500812 2332 ?? Ss 3:54pm 0:08.96 /sbin/nfsd '''-N'''<br />
chiefsucker 58788 0,0 0,0 2435268 496 s000 U+ 7:22pm 0:00.00 grep nfsd<br />
<br />
Pay attention to the <code>-N</code> flag being visible in the ps output. If the <code>-N</code> flag is visible, but your shares don’t work, then it’s probably another issue.<br />
<br />
==== NFS shares stopped working after OS X upgrade ====<br />
<br />
If your share stopped working after you upgraded your OS (e.g. from Lion to Mountain Lion) then it usually means that the installer did overwrite the Property List file and you have to add <code>-N</code> again. See immediately below for Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan upgrade instructions.<br />
<br />
==== Fresh Installs or Upgrading to Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan through High Sierra ====<br />
<br />
Mac OS X 10.11 changed the way the user is allowed to interact with certain system files, including anything in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ This is due to SIP [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Integrity_Protection (System Integrity Protection)]. Follow these steps to disable SIP, set the -N option in com.apple.nfsd.plist, and re-enable SIP.<br />
<br />
# Power up or restart the Mac. At the chime, hold down Command-R to boot into the Recovery Partition.<br />
# Once booted in the Recovery Partition, go to the menu bar and click on '''Utilities''', then select '''Terminal'''.<br />
# Type this into '''Terminal''' to disable SIP: <code>/usr/bin/csrutil disable</code><br />
# Quit '''Terminal''' and restart the Mac.<br />
# Follow the [http://kodi.wiki/view/NFS#NFS_sharing_from_OS_X intructions from above] to insert the <code>-N</code> option.<br />
# Restart the Mac. At the chime, hold down Command-R to boot into the Recovery Partition.<br />
# Again, go to the menu bar and click on '''Utilities''' and select '''Terminal'''.<br />
# Type this into '''Terminal''' to re-enable SIP: <code>/usr/bin/csrutil enable</code><br />
# Quit '''Terminal''' and restart the Mac.<br />
<br />
==== My Mac goes to sleep while playing a movie from a NFS share ====<br />
<br />
OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion introduced some changes that result in very aggressive sleep behaviour. Because NFS shares aren’t handled and treated like shares set from within the Sharing panel in System Preferences, OS X will ignore clients that access your NFS shares and just put it to sleep. Fortunately there are some workarounds:<br />
<br />
# Set '''Computer sleep''' in the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences to '''Never'''. Unfortunately this will affect the whole machine and you’ll have to put your Mac manually to sleep from now on.<br />
# Get the [http://itunes.apple.com/app/caffeine/id411246225?mt=12 free Caffeine app from the Mac App Store]. The app will reside in your menu bar and you can prevent your Mac from sleeping with just one mouse-click. If you disable Caffeine (again with one click), your Mac will go to sleep as set in the System Preferences. This has the benefit of adjustable sleep behavior, i.e. you turn Caffeine on when you watch movies and you turn it off otherwise to preserve energy and save the planet.<br />
# You can reach the same goal with the Terminal app <code>caffeinate</code> that gets shipped with the OS since OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from Linux ==<br />
<br />
NFS sharing has been built into linux kernel for a long time.<br />
<br />
;{{note|This article assumes some basic knowledge of the Linux/UNIX/BSD operating-system interface and environment.}}<br />
<br />
The configuration of the NFS server takes place in the config file "/etc/exports". As already mentioned, the authentication to the NFS server is done through UIDs. For Kodi, this means the UID that the Kodi process is running under is used to authenticate on the NFS server. To find out what UID Kodi is using, just type "id" into a console:<br />
<br />
penix:~ [your_user_name]$ id<br />
uid=501(your_user_name)<br />
<br />
In this example, my UID is 501. For iOS devices, keep in mind that Kodi is running as the user "mobile", whose UID should also be 501.<br />
<br />
A basic configuration for exporting a path with NFS looks like this:<br />
<br />
/nfs/export <ip or iprange which is allowed to connect>(rw,all_squash,insecure)<br />
<br />
The important options here for use with Kodi are the "ip or iprange" and the "insecure" options. The "insecure" option is needed because we want to be able to run Kodi without root privileges. If the insecure option is not enabled, only the root user (uid 0) will have access to the nfs share. The "ip or iprange" specifies which hosts on the network will be allowed to access the exported NFS share. <br />
<br />
By changing some of the options of that line, we can use any of three different approaches for getting the access rights configured as we want:<br />
<br />
1. The option all_squash (most insecure) - all UIDs connected to the NFS server are mapped to UID 65534 (user nobody)<br />
::* In this case all files which shall be accessed on the NFS exported path should have the correct rights for the user "nobody".<br />
2. Using the option "all_squash" in conjunction with the option "anonuid" and "anongid"<br />
::* By adding the options "anonuid=501" and "anongid=501" all accesses would be mapped to the user with UID 501 (user "mobile" on iOS or user "memphis" in my example above)<br />
3. Removing the "all_squash" option the accesses will be done with the UID given from the user which is running Kodi<br />
::* So if Kodi is started with username foobar (which has UID 1000) all accesses to the NFS export path will be made with UID 1000.<br />
<br />
<big>Examples for exported paths:</big><br />
### access from ''all computers'' ("'''*'''"), ''readonly'' ("'''ro'''"), access for user ''nobody'' ("'''all_squash'''")<br />
/nfs/allread *(ro,all_squash,insecure)<br />
<br />
### access from the subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, ''read/write'' ("'''rw'''"), access for user ''nobody''<br />

The UIDs which are used to connect to the NFS server or which are specified with "anonuid" and "anongid" have to exist on the NFS server. Otherwise the filesystem permission can't be set.<br />

<big>'''Notes on serving NFS from Ubuntu 20.04 and other distributions with more modern NFS'''</big><br />
<br />
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS has an updated version of NFS vs. the older version in 16.04 and 18.04. <br />
<br />
Combined with the relatively old version of libnfs included with most Kodi distributions at time of writing, this can make NFS set up a little more difficult than with older versions of Ubuntu. (i.e. when using Ubuntu as the server).<br />
<br />
The main issue is that server discovery is broken - that is, when you click on the 'nfs' option when adding a source, you will ''not'' see your Ubuntu 20.04 NFS IP appearing in the list of available servers.<br />
<br />
In most Kodi locations, you can just explicitly manually enter the full share details (as above, e.g. <code>nfs://192.168.1.5/SomeExport</code>) and you will then be able to use the share that way.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, though, this does not work in ''all'' Kodi file browsers (e.g. when adding a folder for the Kodi Music Information in the Settings -> Media -> Music area). A better solution, then, is to add an explicit entry to your [[mediasources.xml]] file. Note, you don't need to add all the individual NFS ''exports'' - once you have the entry for the ''server'' working, you will then be able to browse the exported shares from that server as normal.<br />
<br />
Example <code>mediasources.xml</code> - this one contains both an SMB (with a user/password) and nfs share - both of which will then come up as sources in all Kodi file browsers.<br />
<br />
<mediasources><br />
<network><br />
<location id="0">smb://user:password@192.168.1.4/</location><br />
<location id="1">nfs://192.168.1.5/</location><br />
</network><br />
</mediasources><br />
<br />
Note, also, that the standard Ubuntu UFW firewall, if enabled, will block incoming NFS connection by default. With NFSv4 clients, where only one standard port (2049) is used, you can add a simple rule to allow NFS through:<br />
<br />
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to any port nfs comment "NFS"<br />
<br />
However, Kodi generally mounts using NFSv3, and this is therefore not sufficient. So you'll need to to do two more things - one, force NFS to use a specific port, and then open that port, plus port 111, on UFW as well. The accepted answer to [https://askubuntu.com/questions/103910/nfs-is-blocked-by-ufw-even-though-ports-are-opened/104232 this question on the Ask Ubuntu Stack Exchange] is the solution.<br />
<br />
Once all this is done, it is then easy to both find your exports, and you will be able to connect to them.<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from FreeBSD ==<br />
This will get you going with NFSv3. <br />
Edit rc.conf:<br />
nfs_server_enable="YES"<br />
rpcbind_enable="YES"<br />
rpc_lockd_enable="YES"<br />
rpc_statd_enable="YES"<br />
weak_mountd_authentication="yes"<br />
<br />
Edit /etc/exports (change to network as required):<br />
/path/to/share -alldirs -maproot=root -network=192.168.1.0/24<br />
After that you can reboot or start the daemons:<br />
service rpcbind start<br />
service nfsd start<br />
service mountd start<br />
<br />
For more information refer to the [https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-nfs.html FreeBSD handbook entry on NFS]<br />
== NFS sharing from NAS4Free 9.x (successor to legacy FreeNAS 7.x) ==<br />
The information in the Linux section above also applies for *BSD based systems (such as FreeBSD). This section addresses some specific issues to bear in mind if you are using NAS4Free 9.x or FreeNAS 7.x (aka. legacy) installations.<br />
<br />
;{{note|FREENAS 8.3.0-RELEASE or later does not require modifying the rc.conf file for Kodi to access NFS shares. You must however enable "allow non-root mount" which can be found under the SERVICES - NFS section in the Freenas 8.3.0 web GUI.}}<br />
<br />
Setup your NFS shares as normal. Remember: don't create shares inside other shares. The following would be illegal...<br />
/mnt/disk -alldirs,quiet -mapall=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0<br />
/mnt/disk/folder -alldirs,quiet -mapall=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0<br />
...because the "/mnt/disk/folder" directory is already shared by "/mnt/disk". If you remember to set the setting "All dirs" when creating your NFS shares, the flag "-alldirs" will be set. This flag allows you to mount any subdirectory of your share just as if it was a share itself. Said another way: It's not necessary to share "/mnt/disk/folder" because you can mount it through the "/mnt/disk" share.<br />
<br />
After having set up a standard NFS share on your NAS4Free box, you need to add a few variables to rc.conf on NAS4Free. This is done by going into System > Advanced > rc.conf .<br />
Here you need to add the following:<br />
Variable Value Comment<br />
mountd_flags -n Allow non-root mount requests to be served. <br />
nfs_reserved_port_only NO Allow for insecure ports to be used by NFS. <br />
nfs_server_flags -u -t -n 4 Serve UDP and TCP with 4 servers. <br />
<br />
After this, apply your changes and reboot NAS4Free. You should now be able to mount your NFS shares, as well as any subdirectory of those shares.<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from ZFSGuru ==<br />
Very similar to FreeNAS solution.<br />
mountd needs the -n flag.<br />
In ZFSGuru you can achieve this by adding<br />
weak_mountd_authentication="YES"<br />
to /etc/rc.conf<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from commercial NAS systems such as Synology or QNAP ==<br />
Each NAS manufacturer, if it allows you to share folders via NFS on its NAS systems, does so in its own way. Often this will involve setup via the NAS's control panel or administrator interface. You can also connect to many NAS systems via ssh and manually edit files in order to set up and configure NFS (consult your NAS manual to see if this is possible/desirable/necessary). Since most NAS systems are based on Linux/UNIX, if you need to manually edit files, you should be able to make use of the [[#NFS sharing from Linux|Linux instructions above]] to create/edit your NFS shares.<br />
<br />
=== Troubleshooting NFS on a commercial NAS with Kodi ===<br />
Your NFS server on your NAS needs to be able to allow connections on so-called '''unprivileged ports''', which are port numbers higher than 1023. However, most NAS's are set up by default to deny incoming NFS connections on these unprivileged ports. This is one of the most common reasons why Kodi users experience problems when trying to connect to an NFS shared folder on a NAS.<br />
<br />
If you are having trouble connecting to your NFS shares on your NAS from Kodi, make sure your NFS shares have the "insecure" option enabled, which will allow connections on unprivileged ports. To check, connect to your NAS via ssh and issue the '''cat /etc/exports''' command. Your shared folders will each have several parameters listed separated by commas. If the "insecure" parameter is not listed, you will need to add that parameter to the list. This will usually involve directly editing the /etc/exports file with a UNIX text editor and adding the "insecure" option manually, although some NAS's may offer the ability to add the option via an admin interface. Check your NAS manual for details, or explore the section below if your brand of NAS is listed.<br />
<br />
=== Commercial NAS NFS setup instructions ===<br />
Kodi users have contributed the following NFS setup instructions for various brands of NAS devices. If your NAS is listed below, feel free to follow the accompanying instructions to set up NFS on your system.<br />

The following guide assumes you are comfortable with using the simplest (least secure) internal setup on your NAS, which will normally be the case for the vast majority of Kodi users.}}<br />
<br />
This guide requires you to SSH into your QNAP, and also to use the terminal editor [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vi Vi] to edit files.<br />
<br />
Here's a couple of guides if you wish to learn more, but feel free to google for further reading: <br />
<br />

<br />
1. Log into your QNAP admin control panel. (Web browser = IP-ADDRESS:8080).<br />
<br />
<gallery widths=700px heights=340px><br />

</gallery><br />
<br />
6. On your computer, in a command line window (Terminal on a Mac, CMD on a Windows PC, etc), ssh into your QNAP:<br />
'''ssh admin@<<YOUR QNAP IP ADDRESS>>'''<br />
<br />
7. Type in '''cat /etc/exports''' to make sure your previous steps have created exported NFS directories. If no entries are found, go back to the previous steps and make sure you've followed them correctly. You should be seeing something like this:<br />
"/share/MD0_DATA/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(rw,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(rw,async,no_root_squash) <br />
"/share/NFS/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash)<br />
<br />
8. Type '''vi /etc/exports''' to edit the /etc/exports file, and add "insecure" entries inside the brackets in front "rw"(separated with a comma ","). If you don't know vi: press the "i" key, use arrows to go to the line to edit, and add the entries. Then press the ESC key, and type ''':wq''' to 'Save & Exit'. Your exports file should now look something like this:<br />
"/share/MD0_DATA/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(insecure,rw,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(insecure,rw,async,no_root_squash) <br />
"/share/NFS/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(insecure,rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(insecure,rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash)<br />
<br />
9. Type '''exportfs -ra''' to initialize your newly exported directories, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''DO NOT''' reboot the QNAP or restart NFS via the QNAP Admin page - If you do the QNAP will overwrite the changes you just made</span>.<br />
<br />
<gallery widths=415px heights=168px><br />
File:QNAP_nfssetting_before.png|'''<big>Step 10:</big>''' Now type '''vi /etc/config/nfssetting'''. You'll see something like this:<br />
File:QNAP_nfssetting_after.png‎|'''<big>Step 11:</big>'''Move your cursor to after the '''rw''' in the line '''/share/*****/Qmultimedia = rw''' (***** interchangeable with whatever yours says). Press {{keypress|i}} and add '''insecure''' separated by a ''',''' (comma). When you're done editing press {{keypress|esc}} and then ''':wq''' to save the changes and close the file. It will look something like this when finished:<br />
</gallery><br />
<span style="color:#FF0000">'''CAUTION: If you reboot your QNAP NAS at any time after completing the steps above, but before completing the steps below, the changes you've made will be wiped out and you will need to redo the process.'''</span><br />
<br />
12. That should be it for getting it working.. You should now be able to browse NFS and get to your exported QNAP folders in Kodi. Now there's just a few more steps to ensure all your hard work survives a reboot/firmware upgrade.<br />
<br />
* We're going to edit/create an autorun script that overwrites two files from backups we're going to make.<br />
<br />
13. Okay, you need to make a folder to store the backup files. You need to use the absolute path in the Autorun script. Type '''mkdir /share/MD0_DATA/backups''' and press '''enter'''. (The MD0_DATA part could be different on your model, I'm running a TS-509).<br />
<br />
14. Now type '''cp /etc/exports /share/MD0_DATA/backups/exports''' and press enter.<br />
<br />
15. Type '''cp /etc/config/nfssetting /share/MD0_DATA/backups/nfssetting''' and press enter.<br />
<br />
16. Now for the fun part. To mount the ramblock follow the procedure below. This is based on the guide here (Method 1): [http://wiki.qnap.com/wiki/Running_Your_Own_Application_at_Startup QNAP Autorun Wikiguide] <br />
<br />
17. Pick the method that is applicable to your QNAP model.<br />
## Model TS-201: Mount the config ramblock /dev/mtdblock4: <pre># mount -t ext2 /dev/mtdblock4 /tmp/config </pre> <br />
## Models TS-109, TS-109P, TS-110, TS-119, TS-209, TS-209P, TS-219, TS-409 (Marvell ARM), TS-419P: Mount the config ramblock /dev/mtdblock5: <pre># mount -t ext2 /dev/mtdblock5 /tmp/config</pre> <br />
## Models TS-439, TS-509, TS-639, TS-809, TS-809U (x86): Mount the config ramblock /dev/sdx6: <pre># mount -t ext2 /dev/sdx6 /tmp/config</pre> <br />
# Create/Edit /tmp/config/autorun.sh .<br />
## either using vi: <pre># vi /tmp/config/autorun.sh</pre><br />
### Get vi editor into edit mode: '''press i''' <br />
### Add these lines to the autorun.sh script:<br />
### '''cp /share/MD0_DATA/backups/exports /etc/exports'''<br />
### '''cp /share/MD0_DATA/backups/nfssetting /etc/config/nfssetting'''<br />
### Exit edit mode: '''press ESC''' <br />
### Save and exit: ''':wq''' <br />
## or editing it using a desktop PC and e.g. SFTP <br />
# Ensure that /tmp/config/autorun.sh is executable: <pre># chmod +x /tmp/config/autorun.sh</pre> <br />
# '''IMPORTANT:''' Unmount the mounted flash partition: <pre># cd /</pre> <pre># umount /tmp/config</pre><br />
<br />
18. Finish the linked guide, making sure to unmount the ramblock. (You will need to cd away from the /tmp/config directory to umount it.<br />
<br />
19. Should be done!<br />

<hr />
<div><section begin="intro"/>'''Network File System''', or '''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_File_System_%28protocol%29 NFS]''', is a way to share folders over a network, and was added to XBMC in v11 (Eden). The main benefits of using NFS instead of SMB are its low protocol overhead (which allows it to send data across a network more quickly) and its use of simple [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_identifier UID's] to authenticate users rather than username/password combinations. This part bears repeating, as many people are confused on this point and try to create usernames and passwords to get Kodi to work with NFS: '''NFS does not use usernames or passwords as logins;''' it uses a UNIX-based "userID" (UID) alone.<section end="intro"/><br />
<br />
NFS's main disadvantage in comparison to SMB (a commonly-encountered protocol in Windows environments) is that it can be more complicated to set up in some cases, since many non-technical users are unfamiliar with configuring UNIX-based protocols.<br />
<br />
NFS is commonly found on all Linux/UNIX distributions, as well as on OS X and Solaris, and offers several features:<br />
:* It is already incorporated in UNIX-like operating systems (such as OS X), eliminating the need for additional software and services to be installed on your computer.<br />
:* It allows for authentication by UID, thus eliminating the need to save usernames and passwords in XBMC source XML files (note, however, that this simple authentication also makes it more vulnerable to attacks; NFS should be only used inside a private LAN).<br />
:* Once properly configured, NFS will allow your network shares to be seen and accessed by not only Kodi, but also any other machine on your network.<br />
<br />
;{{note|If you already have a working NFS server check that the export options required by Kodi have been set (as described in the relevant section below).}} <br />
<br />
When configuring NFS shares to use as network sources for Kodi's music/video libraries, use the following format: '''nfs://1.2.3.4/path/to/folder''' (where "1.2.3.4" should be replaced with the IP of your NFS server, and "/path/to/folder" should be replaced with the path to the folder you want to share; a double slash between the server and the path is wrong, you '''should not''' use nfs://1.2.3.4//path/to/folder). See the sections below for help configuring NFS shares on various devices' operating systems.<br />
<br />
For more info on network sources for your music and video in Kodi, see Types of Media Sources.<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from Windows ==<br />
Windows does not have any built-in native ability to share folders via NFS; and only a limited selection of Windows operating systems have the native ability to access NFS shares as a client. However, several third-party solutions attempt to provide NFS functionality, on both the server side and the client side.<br />
<br />
For ''serving'' (sharing) files from Windows using NFS, there seem to be three choices:<br />
:* Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2012 have built-in NFS Server and Client through Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA). With 64-bit support, this solution supports files up to 4TB in size<br />
:* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows_Services_for_UNIX Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX (SFU)] available [http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=274 here]for Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional (NOT Home edition, without a [http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=1434 hexedit hack]), Windows 2003 Server, and Windows Home Server (based on 2003 Server). SFU is 32-bit only, which ''may'' mean it only supports files up to 2GB in size, [http://www.suacommunity.com/SUA_Tools_Env_Start.htm#_Toc203389873 according to some sources] (this is unconfirmed). A good installation guide can be found [http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showthread.php?tid=1434 here]. Windows SFU will not install on Windows Vista or Windows 7, so there is no way to ''serve'' NFS from Windows Vista or Windows 7 with the possible exception of the haneWIN solution below, but it is unconfirmed if that works with Windows Vista/7.<br />
:* [http://www.hanewin.net/nfs-e.htm haneWIN NFS Server for Windows] - a shareware program that costs 19EUR for non-commercial use. Claims to work for "Windows 2000 and above."<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from OS X ==<br />
NFS is built into Mac OS X (OS 10.5 and later), and thus no additional software is required to set up NFS shares on a Mac OS X device.<br />

1. To allow regular (non-root) users to connect to your NFS shared folders, you'll need to edit the "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist" file. Open it and add the option "-N" to the startup parameters as follows: <br />
<br />
<array><br />
<string>/sbin/nfsd</string><br />
'''<string>-N</string>'''<br />
</array><br />
<br />
If you don't do this step, Kodi will only be able to access the Mac's shared NFS folders if Kodi is running as root (normally, Kodi does not run as root, so you will almost certainly want to do this first step and add the -N parameter).<br />
<br />
2. The NFS server and its shared folders are set up in a config file named "exports", located in the /etc directory. Technically speaking, with NFS you "export a path" rather than "share a folder" (which is why the file is named "exports"), but we'll use the latter phrasing for simplicity's sake.<br />
<br />
The /etc/exports file may not yet exist; if not, you'll need to create it. The file is edited either manually (in Terminal, using a UNIX text editor such as '''nano''' or '''vi''') or via a GUI utility, the most well-known of which is [http://www.bresink.com/osx/NFSManager.html NFS Manager]. The following guide assumes you are using Terminal (if using NFS Manager, consult that software's documentation for help).<br />
<br />
To view the current contents of /etc/exports, if any, execute the following command in a Terminal window:<br />
<br />
'''cat /etc/exports'''<br />
<br />
Any folders to be shared via NFS should be listed on separate lines, along with any configuration parameters governing connections to those folders. The lines should follow this general format:<br />
<br />
/path/to/folder_name_to_share [-parameter1 -parameter2 ...] <IP address restriction (optional)><br />
<br />
<big>Examples</big><br />
<br />
In this sample /etc/exports file, we've set up four folders to be shared via NFS, using various parameters and options. The folders are all contained in a folder called "nfs_shares", and are named to indicate some things about how we've set them up; obviously, on your system, the folder names would be things like "video", "music", and so on.<br />
<br />
/nfs_shares/allread -ro -mapall=nobody -alldirs<br />
/nfs_shares/allwrite -mapall=nobody -alldirs -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0<br />
/nfs_shares/writeAs501 -mapall=501 -alldirs 192.168.1.5<br />
/nfs_shares/Kodiuser<br />
<br />
Let's look at what each of these shared folder configurations means.<br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/allread'''" can be accessed from all computers (because no IP address is given), is read-only ("'''-ro'''"), and all incoming connections are assigned the same permissions as the UNIX user "nobody", who has anonymous access ("'''-mapall=nobody'''"). This last parameter ensures that anyone can access the folder, but they will not have any rights on your NFS server other than those belonging to the "nobody" user. Also, the "'''-alldirs'''" parameter is used to indicate that incoming connections can mount either the /allread folder OR any subfolder underneath /allread.<br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/allwrite'''" can be accessed from all computers on the subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, has read and write permissions (we've omitted "'''-ro'''"), and again access rights for user "nobody" are assigned ("'''-mapall=nobody'''"). The "'''-alldirs'''" parameter is once again used to allow subfolders to be mounted directly.<br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/writeAs501'''" can be accessed from the computer with an IP of 192.168.1.5, has read and write permissions (again we've omitted "'''-ro'''"), and access rights belonging to users on your system with a UID of 501 (see note below) will be inherited by all incoming connections ('''-mapall=501'''). The "'''-alldirs'''" parameter is once again used to allow subfolders to be mounted directly.<br />
<br />
:;{{note|As already mentioned, authentication to the NFS server is done by checking UIDs. For Kodi, this means that the UID which the Kodi process is running under is given to the NFS server to be authenticated. To find out your current UID, just type "id" into a console:}}<br />
<br />
Mac:~ [''your_user_name'']$ '''id'''<br />
<br />
::You should see something that begins like this:<br />
<br />
uid=501(''your_user_name'')<br />
<br />
:In this example, my UID is 501. If you are going to be connecting to your NFS shared folder from Kodi on iOS, keep in mind that on iOS Kodi runs as the user "mobile", which should have UID 501 also. <br />
<br />
* The folder "'''/nfs_shares/Kodiuser'''" can be accessed from all computers ('''no ip given'''), readwrite (no "'''-ro'''") and the access rights belonging to the UID which is connecting to the NFS server are used ("'''-mapall'''" removed). <br />
;{{note|The important effect of the absence of the -mapall parameter in this case: if someone connects to your NFS server as root, they will be running on your system as root! Also note that because "-alldirs" is not specified, incoming connections will only be able to connect to the /Kodiuser folder, NOT any folders underneath it.}}<br />
<br />
Bear in mind that any UID's that are used to connect to the NFS server, or that are specified with "-mapall", have to exist on your NFS server (i.e. on your Mac).<br />
<br />
'''Each change on the exports config file needs a restart of the nfs server! Just issue "sudo nfsd restart" for this.'''<br />
<br />
3. Once you've configured and saved your /etc/exports file, the NFS server can be started either by rebooting or by executing the following command:<br />
<br />
$ sudo nfsd start<br />
<br />
=== Troubleshooting NFS on OS X ===<br />
<br />
==== -N flag is set, but shares still won’t work ====<br />
<br />
Sometimes there are issues with NFS shares on OS X. Most of them result in the <code>-N</code> flag not being set, but they result in different error messages or issues. One of the root issues is the flag being set in the Property List file, but not read by launchd which controls the process. The following observations are pretty common in this case and if you see one of these points, it won’t hurt to either inspect the nfsd process on your Mac or restart the whole computer.<br />
<br />
* You have successfully shared the volume and you can mount it from other Macs in your network (via ⌘K in the Finder), but not from Kodi.<br />
* You can add the computer share (e.g. <code>nfs://192.168.1.5/</code>), but not the share that contains a path (e.g. <code>nfs://192.168.1.5/nfs_shares/allread</code>).<br />
* When you add the computer share, you can enter it in Kodi’s browser, but then clicking on one of the mount points does nothing.<br />
* You see either '''"Server responded: Procedure not available"''' or '''"RPC Packet not accepted by the server"''' in the error logs.<br />
<br />
In most cases it’s sufficient to restart nfsd via launchd, just killing the process with <code>kill -9</code> or <code>killall nfsd</code> after applying changes to the Property List file has no effects. To restart nfsd via launchd you have to type the following command in the Terminal:<br />
<br />
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist && \<br />
sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.nfsd.plist<br />
<br />
When you use <code>ps</code> to inspect the process, <code>-N</code> should be visible at the end of the line. If it’s not, then launchd didn’t apply the changes and just (re-)started nfsd with the old configuration. A proper output looks like this:<br />
<br />
~ '''ps aux | grep nfsd'''<br />
root 55828 0,0 0,0 2500812 2332 ?? Ss 3:54pm 0:08.96 /sbin/nfsd '''-N'''<br />
chiefsucker 58788 0,0 0,0 2435268 496 s000 U+ 7:22pm 0:00.00 grep nfsd<br />
<br />
Pay attention to the <code>-N</code> flag being visible in the ps output. If the <code>-N</code> flag is visible, but your shares don’t work, then it’s probably another issue.<br />
<br />
==== NFS shares stopped working after OS X upgrade ====<br />
<br />
If your share stopped working after you upgraded your OS (e.g. from Lion to Mountain Lion) then it usually means that the installer did overwrite the Property List file and you have to add <code>-N</code> again. See immediately below for Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan upgrade instructions.<br />
<br />
==== Fresh Installs or Upgrading to Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan through High Sierra ====<br />
<br />
Mac OS X 10.11 changed the way the user is allowed to interact with certain system files, including anything in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ This is due to SIP [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Integrity_Protection (System Integrity Protection)]. Follow these steps to disable SIP, set the -N option in com.apple.nfsd.plist, and re-enable SIP.<br />
<br />
# Power up or restart the Mac. At the chime, hold down Command-R to boot into the Recovery Partition.<br />
# Once booted in the Recovery Partition, go to the menu bar and click on '''Utilities''', then select '''Terminal'''.<br />
# Type this into '''Terminal''' to disable SIP: <code>/usr/bin/csrutil disable</code><br />
# Quit '''Terminal''' and restart the Mac.<br />
# Follow the [http://kodi.wiki/view/NFS#NFS_sharing_from_OS_X intructions from above] to insert the <code>-N</code> option.<br />
# Restart the Mac. At the chime, hold down Command-R to boot into the Recovery Partition.<br />
# Again, go to the menu bar and click on '''Utilities''' and select '''Terminal'''.<br />
# Type this into '''Terminal''' to re-enable SIP: <code>/usr/bin/csrutil enable</code><br />
# Quit '''Terminal''' and restart the Mac.<br />
<br />
==== My Mac goes to sleep while playing a movie from a NFS share ====<br />
<br />
OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion introduced some changes that result in very aggressive sleep behaviour. Because NFS shares aren’t handled and treated like shares set from within the Sharing panel in System Preferences, OS X will ignore clients that access your NFS shares and just put it to sleep. Fortunately there are some workarounds:<br />
<br />
# Set '''Computer sleep''' in the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences to '''Never'''. Unfortunately this will affect the whole machine and you’ll have to put your Mac manually to sleep from now on.<br />
# Get the [http://itunes.apple.com/app/caffeine/id411246225?mt=12 free Caffeine app from the Mac App Store]. The app will reside in your menu bar and you can prevent your Mac from sleeping with just one mouse-click. If you disable Caffeine (again with one click), your Mac will go to sleep as set in the System Preferences. This has the benefit of adjustable sleep behavior, i.e. you turn Caffeine on when you watch movies and you turn it off otherwise to preserve energy and save the planet.<br />
# You can reach the same goal with the Terminal app <code>caffeinate</code> that gets shipped with the OS since OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from Linux ==<br />
<br />
NFS sharing has been built into linux kernel for a long time.<br />
<br />
;{{note|This article assumes some basic knowledge of the Linux/UNIX/BSD operating-system interface and environment.}}<br />
<br />
The configuration of the NFS server takes place in the config file "/etc/exports". As already mentioned, the authentication to the NFS server is done through UIDs. For Kodi, this means the UID that the Kodi process is running under is used to authenticate on the NFS server. To find out what UID Kodi is using, just type "id" into a console:<br />
<br />
penix:~ [your_user_name]$ id<br />
uid=501(your_user_name)<br />
<br />
In this example, my UID is 501. For iOS devices, keep in mind that Kodi is running as the user "mobile", whose UID should also be 501.<br />
<br />
A basic configuration for exporting a path with NFS looks like this:<br />
<br />
/nfs/export <ip or iprange which is allowed to connect>(rw,all_squash,insecure)<br />
<br />
The important options here for use with Kodi are the "ip or iprange" and the "insecure" options. The "insecure" option is needed because we want to be able to run Kodi without root privileges. If the insecure option is not enabled, only the root user (uid 0) will have access to the nfs share. The "ip or iprange" specifies which hosts on the network will be allowed to access the exported NFS share. <br />
<br />
By changing some of the options of that line, we can use any of three different approaches for getting the access rights configured as we want:<br />
<br />
1. The option all_squash (most insecure) - all UIDs connected to the NFS server are mapped to UID 65534 (user nobody)<br />
::* In this case all files which shall be accessed on the NFS exported path should have the correct rights for the user "nobody".<br />
2. Using the option "all_squash" in conjunction with the option "anonuid" and "anongid"<br />
::* By adding the options "anonuid=501" and "anongid=501" all accesses would be mapped to the user with UID 501 (user "mobile" on iOS or user "memphis" in my example above)<br />
3. Removing the "all_squash" option the accesses will be done with the UID given from the user which is running Kodi<br />
::* So if Kodi is started with username foobar (which has UID 1000) all accesses to the NFS export path will be made with UID 1000.<br />
<br />
<big>Examples for exported paths:</big><br />
### access from ''all computers'' ("'''*'''"), ''readonly'' ("'''ro'''"), access for user ''nobody'' ("'''all_squash'''")<br />
/nfs/allread *(ro,all_squash,insecure)<br />
<br />
### access from the subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, ''read/write'' ("'''rw'''"), access for user ''nobody''<br />
### ("'''all_squash'''"). Remember that "'''rw'''" doesn't automatically allow writes; the user "nobody" must<br />
### have write access to the path on the filesystem.<br />
/nfs/allwrite 192.168.1.0/24(rw,all_squash,insecure)<br />
<br />
### access from 192.168.1.5, ''read/write'' ("'''rw'''"), access for user with UID 501 (i.e. memphis, for me)<br />
### ("'''all_squash,anonuid=501,anongid=501'''")<br />
/nfs/writeAsMemphis 192.168.1.5(rw,all_squash,insecure,anonuid=501,anongid=501)<br />
<br />
### access from ''all computers'' ("'''*'''"), ''read/write'' ("'''rw'''"), access for the UID connecting to the<br />
### NFS server ("'''all_squash'''" removed)<br />
/nfs/Kodiuser *(rw,insecure)<br />
<br />
### NTFS export *SECURITY Warning: this gives the user ROOT access*<br />
### access from the subnet 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, ''read/write'' ("'''rw'''"), nfs client connects<br />
### as root ("'''no_root_squash'''"). Otherwise, permission is for ''nfsnobody'', (uid 65534).<br />
### NTFS is non-POSIX permissions compliant, so you must access the share as ''root''<br />
/nfs/NTFS_share 192.168.1.0/24(rw,'''no_root_squash''',insecure)<br />
<br />
<br />
The UIDs which are used to connect to the NFS server or which are specified with "anonuid" and "anongid" have to exist on the NFS server. Otherwise the filesystem permission can't be set.<br />
<br />
Remember - access rights are these you give in the filesystem. '''After each change to the exports config file issue "sudo exportfs -ra"!'''<br />
<br />
<big>'''Notes on serving NFS from Ubuntu 20.04 and other distributions with more modern NFS'''</big><br />
<br />
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS has an updated version of NFS vs. the older version in 16.04 and 18.04. <br />
<br />
Combined with the relatively old version of libnfs included with most Kodi distributions at time of writing, this can make NFS set up a little more difficult than with older versions of Ubuntu. (i.e. when using Ubuntu as the server).<br />
<br />
The main issue is that server discovery is broken - that is, when you click on the 'nfs' option when adding a source, you will ''not'' see your Ubuntu 20.04 NFS IP appearing in the list of available servers.<br />
<br />
In most Kodi locations, you can just explicitly manually enter the full share details (as above, e.g. "'''nfs://192.168.1.5/SomeExport'''") and you will then be able to use the share that way.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, though, this does not work in ''all'' Kodi file browsers (e.g. when adding a folder for the Kodi Music Information in the Settings -> Media -> Music area). A better solution, then, is to add an explicit entry to your [[mediasources.xml]] file. Note, you don't need to add all the individual NFS ''exports'' - once you have the entry for the ''server'' working, you will then be able to browse the exported shares from that server as normal.<br />
<br />
Example "'''mediasources.xml'''" - this one contains both an SMB (with a user/password) and nfs share - both of which will then come up as sources in all Kodi file browsers.<br />
<br />
<mediasources><br />
<network><br />
<location id="0">smb://user:password@192.168.1.4/</location><br />
<location id="1">nfs://192.168.1.5/</location><br />
</network><br />
</mediasources><br />
<br />
Note, also, that the standard Ubuntu UFW firewall, if enabled, will block incoming NFS connection by default. With NFSv4 clients, where only one standard port (2049) is used, you can add a simple rule to allow NFS through:<br />
<br />
sudo ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 to any port nfs comment "NFS"<br />
<br />
However, Kodi generally mounts using NFSv3, and this is therefore not sufficient. So you'll need to to do two more things - one, force NFS to use a specific port, and then open that port, plus port 111, on UFW as well. The accepted answer to [https://askubuntu.com/questions/103910/nfs-is-blocked-by-ufw-even-though-ports-are-opened/104232 this question on the Ask Ubuntu Stack Exchange] is the solution.<br />
<br />
Once all this is done, it is then easy to both find your exports, and you will be able to connect to them.<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from FreeBSD ==<br />
This will get you going with NFSv3. <br />
Edit rc.conf:<br />
nfs_server_enable="YES"<br />
rpcbind_enable="YES"<br />
rpc_lockd_enable="YES"<br />
rpc_statd_enable="YES"<br />
weak_mountd_authentication="yes"<br />
<br />
Edit /etc/exports (change to network as required):<br />
/path/to/share -alldirs -maproot=root -network=192.168.1.0/24<br />
After that you can reboot or start the daemons:<br />
service rpcbind start<br />
service nfsd start<br />
service mountd start<br />
<br />
For more information refer to the [https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-nfs.html FreeBSD handbook entry on NFS]<br />
== NFS sharing from NAS4Free 9.x (successor to legacy FreeNAS 7.x) ==<br />
The information in the Linux section above also applies for *BSD based systems (such as FreeBSD). This section addresses some specific issues to bear in mind if you are using NAS4Free 9.x or FreeNAS 7.x (aka. legacy) installations.<br />
<br />
;{{note|FREENAS 8.3.0-RELEASE or later does not require modifying the rc.conf file for Kodi to access NFS shares. You must however enable "allow non-root mount" which can be found under the SERVICES - NFS section in the Freenas 8.3.0 web GUI.}}<br />
<br />
Setup your NFS shares as normal. Remember: don't create shares inside other shares. The following would be illegal...<br />
/mnt/disk -alldirs,quiet -mapall=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0<br />
/mnt/disk/folder -alldirs,quiet -mapall=root -network 192.168.1.0 -mask 255.255.255.0<br />
...because the "/mnt/disk/folder" directory is already shared by "/mnt/disk". If you remember to set the setting "All dirs" when creating your NFS shares, the flag "-alldirs" will be set. This flag allows you to mount any subdirectory of your share just as if it was a share itself. Said another way: It's not necessary to share "/mnt/disk/folder" because you can mount it through the "/mnt/disk" share.<br />
<br />
After having set up a standard NFS share on your NAS4Free box, you need to add a few variables to rc.conf on NAS4Free. This is done by going into System > Advanced > rc.conf .<br />
Here you need to add the following:<br />
Variable Value Comment<br />
mountd_flags -n Allow non-root mount requests to be served. <br />
nfs_reserved_port_only NO Allow for insecure ports to be used by NFS. <br />
nfs_server_flags -u -t -n 4 Serve UDP and TCP with 4 servers. <br />
<br />
After this, apply your changes and reboot NAS4Free. You should now be able to mount your NFS shares, as well as any subdirectory of those shares.<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from ZFSGuru ==<br />
Very similar to FreeNAS solution.<br />
mountd needs the -n flag.<br />
In ZFSGuru you can achieve this by adding<br />
weak_mountd_authentication="YES"<br />
to /etc/rc.conf<br />
<br />
== NFS sharing from commercial NAS systems such as Synology or QNAP ==<br />
Each NAS manufacturer, if it allows you to share folders via NFS on its NAS systems, does so in its own way. Often this will involve setup via the NAS's control panel or administrator interface. You can also connect to many NAS systems via ssh and manually edit files in order to set up and configure NFS (consult your NAS manual to see if this is possible/desirable/necessary). Since most NAS systems are based on Linux/UNIX, if you need to manually edit files, you should be able to make use of the [[#NFS sharing from Linux|Linux instructions above]] to create/edit your NFS shares.<br />
<br />
=== Troubleshooting NFS on a commercial NAS with Kodi ===<br />
Your NFS server on your NAS needs to be able to allow connections on so-called '''unprivileged ports''', which are port numbers higher than 1023. However, most NAS's are set up by default to deny incoming NFS connections on these unprivileged ports. This is one of the most common reasons why Kodi users experience problems when trying to connect to an NFS shared folder on a NAS.<br />
<br />
If you are having trouble connecting to your NFS shares on your NAS from Kodi, make sure your NFS shares have the "insecure" option enabled, which will allow connections on unprivileged ports. To check, connect to your NAS via ssh and issue the '''cat /etc/exports''' command. Your shared folders will each have several parameters listed separated by commas. If the "insecure" parameter is not listed, you will need to add that parameter to the list. This will usually involve directly editing the /etc/exports file with a UNIX text editor and adding the "insecure" option manually, although some NAS's may offer the ability to add the option via an admin interface. Check your NAS manual for details, or explore the section below if your brand of NAS is listed.<br />
<br />
=== Commercial NAS NFS setup instructions ===<br />
Kodi users have contributed the following NFS setup instructions for various brands of NAS devices. If your NAS is listed below, feel free to follow the accompanying instructions to set up NFS on your system.<br />
<br />

==== QNAP ====<br />
[[File:QNAP.gif|link=]]<br /><br />
;{{note|You do not need to create a special user account on your QNAP NAS in order to make use of NFS for Kodi. The following guide assumes you are comfortable with using the simplest (least secure) internal setup on your NAS, which will normally be the case for the vast majority of Kodi users.}}<br />
<br />
This guide requires you to SSH into your QNAP, and also to use the terminal editor [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vi Vi] to edit files.<br />
<br />
Here's a couple of guides if you wish to learn more, but feel free to google for further reading: <br />
<br />
[http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/vimcheat.html Vi Cheat Sheet]<br />
<br />
1. Log into your QNAP admin control panel. (Web browser = IP-ADDRESS:8080).<br />
<br />
<gallery widths=700px heights=340px><br />
File:QNAP_SSH.png|'''<big>Step 2:</big>''' Enable SSH (if not already): Network Services -> Telnet / SSH -> 'tick' Allow SSH connection, Press {{button|Apply}}<br />
File:QNAP_NFS.png|'''<big>Step 3:</big>''' Enable NFS: Network Services -> NFS Service -> 'tick' Enable NFS Service, Press {{button|Apply}}<br />
</gallery><br />
<gallery widths=600px heights=350px><br />
File:QNAP_Shares.png|'''<big>Step 3:</big>''' Set NFS Access Rights: Under "Enable NFS Service" Click on "Click here to set the NFS access right of the network share"<br />
File:QNAP_NFS_Access.png|'''<big>Step 4:</big>''' Click on the NFS icon next to Qmultimedia (or whatever the name of your media share on the QNAP) and set Access Right to No Limit and put in the IP Address of each individual device that requires NFS connection (ATV2, Desktop, Laptop, etc.), Press {{button|Apply}}<br />
</gallery><br />
<br />
6. On your computer, in a command line window (Terminal on a Mac, CMD on a Windows PC, etc), ssh into your QNAP:<br />
'''ssh admin@<<YOUR QNAP IP ADDRESS>>'''<br />
<br />
7. Type in '''cat /etc/exports''' to make sure your previous steps have created exported NFS directories. If no entries are found, go back to the previous steps and make sure you've followed them correctly. You should be seeing something like this:<br />
"/share/MD0_DATA/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(rw,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(rw,async,no_root_squash) <br />
"/share/NFS/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash)<br />
<br />
8. Type '''vi /etc/exports''' to edit the /etc/exports file, and add "insecure" entries inside the brackets in front "rw"(separated with a comma ","). If you don't know vi: press the "i" key, use arrows to go to the line to edit, and add the entries. Then press the ESC key, and type ''':wq''' to 'Save & Exit'. Your exports file should now look something like this:<br />
"/share/MD0_DATA/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(insecure,rw,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(insecure,rw,async,no_root_squash) <br />
"/share/NFS/Qmultimedia" 192.168.1.15(insecure,rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash) 192.168.1.20(insecure,rw,nohide,async,no_root_squash)<br />
<br />
9. Type '''exportfs -ra''' to initialize your newly exported directories, <span style="color:#FF0000">'''DO NOT''' reboot the QNAP or restart NFS via the QNAP Admin page - If you do the QNAP will overwrite the changes you just made</span>.<br />
<br />
<gallery widths=415px heights=168px><br />
File:QNAP_nfssetting_before.png|'''<big>Step 10:</big>''' Now type '''vi /etc/config/nfssetting'''. You'll see something like this:<br />
File:QNAP_nfssetting_after.png‎|'''<big>Step 11:</big>'''Move your cursor to after the '''rw''' in the line '''/share/*****/Qmultimedia = rw''' (***** interchangeable with whatever yours says). Press {{keypress|i}} and add '''insecure''' separated by a ''',''' (comma). When you're done editing press {{keypress|esc}} and then ''':wq''' to save the changes and close the file. It will look something like this when finished:<br />
</gallery><br />
<span style="color:#FF0000">'''CAUTION: If you reboot your QNAP NAS at any time after completing the steps above, but before completing the steps below, the changes you've made will be wiped out and you will need to redo the process.'''</span><br />
<br />
12. That should be it for getting it working.. You should now be able to browse NFS and get to your exported QNAP folders in Kodi. Now there's just a few more steps to ensure all your hard work survives a reboot/firmware upgrade.<br />
<br />
* We're going to edit/create an autorun script that overwrites two files from backups we're going to make.<br />
<br />
13. Okay, you need to make a folder to store the backup files. You need to use the absolute path in the Autorun script. Type '''mkdir /share/MD0_DATA/backups''' and press '''enter'''. (The MD0_DATA part could be different on your model, I'm running a TS-509).<br />
<br />
14. Now type '''cp /etc/exports /share/MD0_DATA/backups/exports''' and press enter.<br />
<br />
15. Type '''cp /etc/config/nfssetting /share/MD0_DATA/backups/nfssetting''' and press enter.<br />
<br />
16. Now for the fun part. To mount the ramblock follow the procedure below. This is based on the guide here (Method 1): [http://wiki.qnap.com/wiki/Running_Your_Own_Application_at_Startup QNAP Autorun Wikiguide] <br />
<br />
17. Pick the method that is applicable to your QNAP model.<br />
## Model TS-201: Mount the config ramblock /dev/mtdblock4: <pre># mount -t ext2 /dev/mtdblock4 /tmp/config </pre> <br />
## Models TS-109, TS-109P, TS-110, TS-119, TS-209, TS-209P, TS-219, TS-409 (Marvell ARM), TS-419P: Mount the config ramblock /dev/mtdblock5: <pre># mount -t ext2 /dev/mtdblock5 /tmp/config</pre> <br />
## Models TS-439, TS-509, TS-639, TS-809, TS-809U (x86): Mount the config ramblock /dev/sdx6: <pre># mount -t ext2 /dev/sdx6 /tmp/config</pre> <br />
# Create/Edit /tmp/config/autorun.sh .<br />
## either using vi: <pre># vi /tmp/config/autorun.sh</pre><br />
### Get vi editor into edit mode: '''press i''' <br />
### Add these lines to the autorun.sh script:<br />
### '''cp /share/MD0_DATA/backups/exports /etc/exports'''<br />
### '''cp /share/MD0_DATA/backups/nfssetting /etc/config/nfssetting'''<br />
### Exit edit mode: '''press ESC''' <br />
### Save and exit: ''':wq''' <br />
## or editing it using a desktop PC and e.g. SFTP <br />
# Ensure that /tmp/config/autorun.sh is executable: <pre># chmod +x /tmp/config/autorun.sh</pre> <br />
# '''IMPORTANT:''' Unmount the mounted flash partition: <pre># cd /</pre> <pre># umount /tmp/config</pre><br />
<br />
18. Finish the linked guide, making sure to unmount the ramblock. (You will need to cd away from the /tmp/config directory to umount it.<br />
<br />
19. Should be done!<br />
<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />

<br />
...and here's Amber:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather-Amber.jpg" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/main/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/PlaybackRadar.png" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
If you're having problems running the add on (and especially if you use Kodi profiles) - make sure the pyzt module is installed AND enabled, for the profile you're using specifically. (System -> Addons -> Manage Dependencies...).<br />
<br />
If using a manual radar code, do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
With Confluence and Estuary you get the added bonus of some weather info during playback when you show the video info. Looks like this:<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach to patching your skin files , using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this. Also, you'll have to do some manual search and replacing in the skin files, as the skin patcher uses a 'template tags' system to let folks change text and background colours. You'll need to manually do the equivalent of this python code:<br />
<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_default_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_default'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dim_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dim'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_dimmer_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_dimmer'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_high_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_high_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_colour_text_low_temp_', ADDON.getSetting('colour_text_low_temp'))<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_visible_', 'yes' if ADDON.getSettingBool('background_visible_bool') else 'no')<br />
new_data = new_data.replace('_background_opacity_', ADDON.getSetting('background_opacity'))<br />
<br />
(Another approach, perhaps, would be to run the skin patcher once, then grab the skin files it has generated with your preferred colours, and save those off somewhere for your later purposes...but of course you won't benefit from any future updates to those skin files...)<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
'''...but for 99% of folks, the skin patcher add on above is the ''much'' easier alternative - so try that first!'''<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
Do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Utility provided below to make patching skin files easy (Estuary/Estouchy/Confluence/Xonfluence/Amber/Aeon Nox Silvo/Aeon Tajo - more by request...)<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />
<br />

<br />
....or if you're old school and still using Confluence like me:<br />

<br />
...and here's Amber:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather-Amber.jpg" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
...you get the idea...<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, Aeon Nox Silvo, Aeon Tajo, Confluence or Xonfluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. <br />
<br />
'''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am ''in theory'' happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />

'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, Amber, or Confluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. '''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am in theory happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
There is also an optional VideoFullScreenInfo that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your currently playing video info screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high). Hit 'info/i' or 'menu/m' on your remote/keyboard during video playback to bring this up. <br />
<br />
If you want this, you will need to enable this feature in the Skin Patcher settings. Looks like this:<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach, using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
...but the skin patcher add on above is a ''much'' easier alternative, so try that first!<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
Do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />

<br />
....or if you're old school and still using Confluence like me:<br />

<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, AMber, or Confluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. '''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am in theory happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
There is also an optional VideoFullScreenInfo that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your currently playing video info screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high). Hit 'info/i' or 'menu/m' on your remote/keyboard during video playback to bring this up. <br />
<br />
If you want this, you will need to enable this feature in the Skin Patcher settings. Looks like this:<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach, using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
...but the skin patcher add on above is a ''much'' easier alternative, so try that first!<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
Do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi Matrix plus (There is an old version that runs on Leia and below, but support from now on is Matrix and on only, due to the extensive Python 3 and BOM API re-write).<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread]. <br />
(If you like it and use it, and want to support it surviving into the future, there is a 'buy me a coffee' link in the first post in the form thread).<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data directly from the BOM API (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (auto locates your closest radar, but you can override this and choose any BOM radar loop if you wish. See notes on an addon to perform the skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence/Estuary only currently).<br />
<br />
Version 2 of the addon (June 2021 on), looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary:<br />
<br />

<br />
....or if you're old school and still using Confluence like me:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20V2%20Confluence.jpg" width="720" height="405"><br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that the pytz, requests and urllib3 modules are all enabled!'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to Kodi settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your selected weather information add on. <br />
<br />
In the add on settings you can add up to three BOM locations - you can enter either your postcode or suburb - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations. Ideally, enter locations in the 'Fallback' settings page as well - this will mean that if ever the BOM API is not available, the add-on will fall back to scraping data from an alternative site (WeatherZone). That data is not as accurate, but it's still a lot better for Australian data than other weather addons.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - you can have animated radars. The addon auto-selects the closest radar to you, but you can overrule this if you wish by manually putting in any BOM radar code. To find a radar code, go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
There is a map here with radar locations - if you hover your mouse over one of the radar diamonds, you can read the code you need from there:<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/radar/<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If ever you experience issues with missing radar background images, wait a day or two, then use the 'purge backgrounds on next refresh' option in the add-on settings, and with luck your backgrounds will be re-downloaded on the next run.<br />
<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, or Confluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. '''Note that your skin folder MUST be writeable''' for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device - nothing I can do about this, sorry!).<br />
<br />
I am in theory happy to add support for other skins (and especially if you can develop & supply working skin files for the current Kodi version!) - just let me know what skin support you're after in the OzWeather forum thread.<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, just run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, if you're some sort of masochist, you can take a manual approach, using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in the skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
The latest version of the skin files can be found at: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/staging/script.ozweather-skinpatcher/resources/skin-files<br />
<br />
...but the skin patcher add on above is a ''much'' easier alternative, so try that first!<br />
<br />
There is also an optional VideoFullScreenInfo that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your currently playing video info screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high). Hit 'info/i' or 'menu/m' on your remote/keyboard during video playback to bring this up.<br />
<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
I've been supporting this add on for more than 10 years now. I use it myself, of course, and I keep it working as smoothly as the upstream sources allow me to.<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some real chance of helping you. I '''will''' check it and help, if you supply it. But log snippets, or logs without debug logging, are NOT enough.<br />
<br />
Do check your radar code carefully - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You '''must''' include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to your browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
If things don't work as expected and you need to ask for help - always supply a link to a FULL DEBUG LOG so I have some chance of helping you. I will check it and helpm if you supply it.<br />
<br />
Do check your radar code - is it _exactly_ as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You must include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to a browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the Kodi forum thread].<br />

This Add On is for Kodi (Gotham and above....right through to Matrix) - with a recent re-write to improve the scraper robustness & speed.<br />
<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data from the BOM (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative source for weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (you can choose any animated BOM radar, & see notes on skin changes needed for this, below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video & display video information etc. if you want (Confluence only)<br />
<br />
It looks like this with Kodi's default skin, Estuary (although usually with more rain clouds here in Melbourne!!):<br />
<br />

<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that both the requests and urllib3 modules are actually enabled'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to XBMC settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your weather add on. In the add on settings you can add up to three locations - you do this using their postcode - it will prompt you to choose from a list of matching locations, if more than one area uses that postcode.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - then you need to direct input the BOM radar codes for the radar's you want displayed. Go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
List of radar codes from BOM site [http://www.bom.gov.au/inside/itb/dm/idcodes/tables/current/radar_products.shtml here].<br />
<br />
Notes:<br />
If you get just the rain and no backgrounds on your radar, re-start Kodi and it will reload the skin & textures and the radar should come up ok. Don't hammer the location/refresh button - it can take up to 15 seconds or so to update, and you can confuse it if you go too fast...<br />
<br />
If you are using an Apple TV with Crystalbuntu (or in general have issues with the radars and find messages about PIL or Python Imaging Library in your debug log, the try running:<br />
[code]<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
[/code]<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the long forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary, Estouchy, or Confluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier. Note that the skin folder must be writeable for this to work (meaning if you're on Android, you _may_ need a rooted device).<br />
<br />
(I am willing to add support for other skins - if you can supply working skin files for the current Kodi version - just let me know in the OzWeather forum thread).<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Install that, and then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo. Then, run it. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, you can take a manual approach, using these instructions/files...note that there are updates to these files in teh skin patcher add on so use that if at all possible.<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this *will* break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
Download the zip file for Estuary (Leia onwards) [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Estuary%20xml%20folder).zip here]<br />
<br />
Download the zip for all versions of Confluence (i.e. Matrix/Leia/Krypton/Isengard/Helix etc...) [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Confluence%20720p).zip here].<br />
<br />
In your zip are up to three files, MyWeather.xml, DialogSeekBar.xml and (possibly, varies on version) a Font.xml - these much be copied to the 720p or xml folder in your local skin installation folder. Re-start Kodi after doing this so it reloads the skin files.<br />
<br />
(If you are using openelec like me, you will find the system Confluence folder is not writeable, so I suggest you copy the system Confluence skin to your add ons directory, change the name in addon.xml, and start using your own modded Confluence!).<br />
<br />
In the blade menu on the left you will also find a link to ABC's Weather in 90 Seconds video.<br />
<br />
There is also an optional DialogSeekBar.xml that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your pause screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high).<br />
<br />
Looks like this:<br />

'''''Other Skins'''''<br />
<br />
Contributions gratefully accepted - please feel free to edit the other skins section above and add your skin files.<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
If your radar does not work - check your debug log first!<br />
<br />
If there are errors about 'no muodule found PIL' or similar, it means python image library (PIL) is not installed. You can usually solve that with:<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
<br />
Also, check your radar code - is it exactly as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You must include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to a browser?<br />
<br />

'''''Other Skins'''''<br />
<br />
Contributions gratefully accepted - please feel free to edit the other skins section above and add your skin files.<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
If your radar does not work - check your debug log first!<br />
<br />
If there are errors about 'no muodule found PIL' or similar, it means python image library (PIL) is not installed. You can usually solve that with:<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
<br />
Also, check your radar code - is it exactly as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You must include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to a browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />

This Add On is for Kodi (Gotham and above....right through to Matrix) - with a recent re-write to improve the scraper robustness & speed.<br />
<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data from the BOM (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Animated BOM radar maps (you can choose any BOM radar, & see notes on skin changes below)<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video etc. if you want<br />
<br />
It looks like this (although usually with more rain clouds here in Melbourne!!):<br />

<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo). For radar support, see notes below on skin changes and a tool to help with this.<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that both the requests and urllib3 modules are actually enabled'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to XBMC settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your weather add on. In the add on settings you can add up to three locations - you do this using their postcode - it will prompt you with matching locations if more than one area uses that postcode.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - then you need to direct input the BOM radar codes for the radar's you want displayed. Go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site here. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
List of radar codes from BOM site [http://www.bom.gov.au/inside/itb/dm/idcodes/tables/current/radar_products.shtml here].<br />
<br />
Notes<br />
If you get just the rain and no backgrounds on your radar, re-start Kodi and it will reload the skin & textures and the radar should come up ok. Don't hammer the location/refresh button - it can take up to 15 seconds or so to update, and you can confuse it if you go too fast...<br />
<br />
If you are using an Apple TV with Crystalbuntu (or in general have issues with the radars and find messages about PIL or Python Imaging Library in your debug log, the try running:<br />
[code]<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
[/code]<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the long forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. <br />
<br />
'''Utility to Patch Skins'''<br />
<br />
If you're on Kodi Matrix and above, and you're using Estuary or Confluence as your skin, I have written a utility tool to make this easier.<br />
(I am willing to add support for other skins if you wish, and can supply working skin files for the current Kodi version - just ask in OzWeather forum thread).<br />
<br />
To install the utility - you will need to install my repo...download the latest .zip for that here: https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/tree/master/repository-downloads/repository.bossanova808<br />
<br />
Then install the 'OzWeather Skin Patcher' add-on from that repo & run that. It can both patch and restore the skin files as needed.<br />
<br />
'''The Manual Approach'''<br />
<br />
Otherwise, you can take a manual approach, using these instructions/files:<br />
<br />
You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this will break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
'''''Estuary'''''<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Estuary%20-%20Main%20Page.jpg" height="540" width = "960"><br />
<br />
'''''Confluence'''''<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Frodo%20With%20Rain.png"><br />
<br />
Download the zip file for Estuary in Leia/Krypton [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Estuary%20xml%20folder).zip here]<br />
<br />
Download the zip for all recent version of Confluence (i.e. Leia/Krypton/Isengard/Helix) [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Confluence%20720p).zip here].<br />
<br />
In your zip are up to three files, MyWeather.xml, DialogSeekBar.xml and (possibly, varies on version) a Font.xml - these much be copied to the 720p or xml folder in your local skin installation folder. Re-start Kodi after doing this so it reloads the skin files.<br />
<br />
(If you are using openelec like me, you will find the system Confluence folder is not writeable, so I suggest you copy the system Confluence skin to your add ons directory, change the name in addon.xml, and start using your own modded Confluence!).<br />
<br />
In the blade menu on the left you will also find a link to ABC's Weather in 90 Seconds video.<br />
<br />
There is also an optional DialogSeekBar.xml that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your pause screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high).<br />
<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
If your radar does not work - check your debug log first!<br />
<br />
If there are errors about 'no muodule found PIL' or similar, it means python image library (PIL) is not installed. You can usually solve that with:<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
<br />
Also, check your radar code - is it exactly as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You must include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to a browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />

This Add On is for Kodi (Gotham and above....right through to Krypton in 2017) - with a recent re-write to improve the scraper robustness & speed.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data from the BOM (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Live BOM radar maps<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video etc. if you want<br />
<br />
It looks like this (although usually with more rain clouds here in Melbourne!!):<br />

<br />
or if you're still using Confluence like me:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Frodo%20With%20Rain.png"><br />
<br />
==== Notes on Krypton ====<br />
<br />
I am not in love (or even like!) - with Estuary, the new default skin shipped with Kodi V17. I personally recommend you stick to Confluence and use the Helix and above Confluence skin files found below. But if you must use Estuary, I have made some skin file for that too. They're not as well tested perhaps as the Confluence ones, though, because I can't bring myself to use Estuary. Let me know if you find any issues.<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo).<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that both the requests and urllib3 modules are enabled'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to XBMC settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your weather add on. In the add on settings you can add up to three locations - you do this using their postcode - it will prompt you with matching locations if more than one area uses that postcode.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - then you need to direct input the BOM radar codes for the radar's you want displayed. Go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site here. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
List of radar codes from BOM site [http://www.bom.gov.au/inside/itb/dm/idcodes/tables/current/radar_products.shtml here].<br />
<br />
Notes<br />
If you get just the rain and no backgrounds on your radar, re-start XBMC and it will reload the skin & textures and the radar should come up ok. Don't hammer the location/refresh button - it can take up to 15 seconds or so to update, and you can confuse it if you go too fast...<br />
<br />
If you are using an Apple TV with Crystalbuntu (or in general have issues with the radars and find messages about PIL or Python Imaging Library in your debug log, the try running:<br />
[code]<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
[/code]<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the long forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this will break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
'''''Estuary'''''<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Estuary%20-%20Main%20Page.jpg" height="540" width = "960"><br />
<br />
'''''Confluence'''''<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Frodo%20With%20Rain.png"><br />
<br />
Download the zip file for Estuary in Leia/Krypton [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Estuary%20xml%20folder).zip here]<br />
<br />
Download the zip for all recent version of Confluence (i.e. Leia/Krypton/Isengard/Helix) [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Confluence%20720p).zip here].<br />
<br />
In your zip are up to three files, MyWeather.xml, DialogSeekBar.xml and (possibly, varies on version) a Font.xml - these much be copied to the 720p or xml folder in your local skin installation folder. Re-start Kodi after doing this so it reloads the skin files.<br />
<br />
(If you are using openelec like me, you will find the system Confluence folder is not writeable, so I suggest you copy the system Confluence skin to your add ons directory, change the name in addon.xml, and start using your own modded Confluence!).<br />
<br />
In the blade menu on the left you will also find a link to ABC's Weather in 90 Seconds video.<br />
<br />
There is also an optional DialogSeekBar.xml that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your pause screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high).<br />
<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />

=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
If your radar does not work - check your debug log first!<br />
<br />
If there are errors about 'no muodule found PIL' or similar, it means python image library (PIL) is not installed. You can usually solve that with:<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
<br />
Also, check your radar code - is it exactly as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You must include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to a browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />

<br />
<section begin="intro" />Kodi includes an interface to browse other repositories for add-ons that are not part of the Official Kodi Repository. A listing of unofficial repositories is available below.<br />
<br />
'''''Note:''''' The listing here is provided as a convenience and {{kodi}} does not warrant suitability of a repository or its add-ons. Although an initial check was conducted for inclusion into this list, over time the contents of a repository may have changed. The page is not actively patrolled, but action will be taken immediately once notification is received of breaches to our rules. Conduct your own checks to confirm the add-ons are appropriate.<section end="intro" /><br />
<br />
== Information for add-on developers ==<br />
# '''Consider applying to have your add-on included in [[Submitting Add-ons|Official add-on repository]]'''<br />
# If it does not meet the required conditions, consider contacting an owner of an existing unofficial repository and ask if they would be happy to let you distribute your add-on from there.<br />
# You can also create your own repository. See [[HOW-TO:Create a repository for add-ons]] or [[Add-on repositories]], and then add it to the table below for it to show up in the Repositories Installer Add-on.<br />
<br />
== How to install additional add-on repositories ==<br />
You can install an individual repository using these instructions: '''[[HOW-TO:Install add-ons from zip files]]'''<br />
<br />
To access the contents of the newly installed repository browse to System > Add-ons > Install from repository.<br />
<br />
== Unofficial repositories ==<br />
{{Note|<br />
* {{big|The '''[[forum rules]]''' on piracy content applies to the wiki as well!}}<br />

<br />
This Add On is for Kodi (Gotham and above....right through to Krypton in 2017) - with a recent re-write to improve the scraper robustness & speed.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Support, discussion, release notification:[http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />
<br />
It has been adapted to source it's data from the BOM (Australian Bureau of Meteorology) - as this is really the only authoritative weather data in Australia.<br />
<br />
===== Features =====<br />
<br />
* Live BOM radar maps<br />
* 7 Day Forecasts<br />
* Today's extended forecast<br />
* Direct access to 'ABC National Weather Update in 90 Seconds'<br />
* Mini weather when you pause video etc. if you want<br />
<br />
It looks like this (although usually with more rain clouds here in Melbourne!!):<br />

<br />
or if you're still using Confluence like me:<br />

<br />
==== Notes on Krypton ====<br />
<br />
I am not in love (or even like!) - with Estuary, the new default skin shipped with Kodi V17. I personally recommend you stick to Confluence and use the Helix and above Confluence skin files found below. But if you must use Estuary, I have made some skin file for that too. They're not as well tested perhaps as the Confluence ones, though, because I can't bring myself to use Estuary. Let me know if you find any issues.<br />
<br />
==== Instructions ====<br />
<br />
Go into Get More Add-Ons and choose Weather -> OzWeather... (Oz Weather is in the official Kodi repo).<br />
<br />
'''NB if you experience errors running OzWeather, particularly if using profiles other than the Master profile, please check in Settings->System->Addons->Manage Dependencies and make sure that both the requests and urllib3 modules are enabled'''<br />
<br />
To Configure - First, go to XBMC settings->Weather and choose the OzWeather add on as your weather add on. In the add on settings you can add up to three locations - you do this using their postcode - it will prompt you with matching locations if more than one area uses that postcode.<br />
<br />
If you enable the extended features (see skin changes required below!) - then you need to direct input the BOM radar codes for the radar's you want displayed. Go to the BOM site and find the radar you want, then check the url:<br />
<br />
http://www.bom.gov.au/products/'''IDR023'''.loop.shtml#skip<br />
<br />
...the code you need to enter (precisely) is '''IDR023'''<br />
<br />
...there is also a list of Radar IDs and what they are on the BOM site here. Note not all codes actually work all the time, as some radars are only in part time use. The main capital city ones work well, e.g. IDR023 above which is the Melbourne 128km loop, or try IDR00004 for a nice national radar.<br />
<br />
List of radar codes from BOM site [http://www.bom.gov.au/inside/itb/dm/idcodes/tables/current/radar_products.shtml here].<br />
<br />
Notes<br />
If you get just the rain and no backgrounds on your radar, re-start XBMC and it will reload the skin & textures and the radar should come up ok. Don't hammer the location/refresh button - it can take up to 15 seconds or so to update, and you can confuse it if you go too fast...<br />
<br />
If you are using an Apple TV with Crystalbuntu (or in general have issues with the radars and find messages about PIL or Python Imaging Library in your debug log, the try running:<br />
[code]<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
[/code]<br />
<br />
==== Skin Changes ====<br />
<br />
If you enable the long forecasts & radar, skin changes are needed. You just need to copy some files into your skin/720p or skin/xml folder. Note this will break compatibility with other weather add ons, so best to back up the original files first if you're worried about this.<br />
<br />
'''''Estuary'''''<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Estuary%20-%20Main%20Page.jpg" height="540" width = "960"><br />
<br />
'''''Confluence'''''<br />
Looks like this:<br />
<br />
<img src="https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Screenshots/OzWeather/OzWeather%20Frodo%20With%20Rain.png"><br />
<br />
Download the zip file for Estuary in Leia/Krypton [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Estuary%20xml%20folder).zip here]<br />
<br />
Download the zip for all recent version of Confluence (i.e. Leia/Krypton/Isengard/Helix) [https://github.com/bossanova808/repository.bossanova808/raw/master/repository-downloads/Other%20Downloads/Skin%20Files%20for%20OzWeather/Krypton%20-%20Skin%20files%20for%20extended%20features%20(copy%20to%20Confluence%20720p).zip here].<br />
<br />
In your zip are up to three files, MyWeather.xml, DialogSeekBar.xml and (possibly, varies on version) a Font.xml - these much be copied to the 720p or xml folder in your local skin installation folder. Re-start Kodi after doing this so it reloads the skin files.<br />
<br />
(If you are using openelec like me, you will find the system Confluence folder is not writeable, so I suggest you copy the system Confluence skin to your add ons directory, change the name in addon.xml, and start using your own modded Confluence!).<br />
<br />
In the blade menu on the left you will also find a link to ABC's Weather in 90 Seconds video.<br />
<br />
There is also an optional DialogSeekBar.xml that you can use if you want a mini forecast on your pause screen (shows radar map, current temp, predicted high, overnight low and tomorrow high).<br />
<br />
Looks like this:<br />

'''''Other Skins'''''<br />
<br />
Contributions gratefully accepted - post them to the forum thread and I will add them here!<br />
<br />
=== Support & Troubleshooting ===<br />
<br />
If your radar does not work - check your debug log first!<br />
<br />
If there are errors about 'no muodule found PIL' or similar, it means python image library (PIL) is not installed. You can usually solve that with:<br />
sudo apt-get install python-imaging<br />
<br />
Also, check your radar code - is it exactly as the BOM one - i.e. '''IDR023''' or similar. You must include the '''IDR''' part! Does the URL in the debug log load if you paste it in to a browser?<br />
<br />
Any issues, please post them [http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?t=116905 on the xbmc forum thread].<br />
