This app is noting giving me the feeds I want

Right. The uploader can choose not to allow embedded viewing, and instead require that videos be watched on the actual YouTube pages themselves.

can't find any Feed that is working .. no mather RSS or Atom

This may have been answered already but many of the videos I like to watch on YouTube are displaying "Unable to play this Video! Error: Message from YouTube video cannot be played in the embedded player". Is this an issue that has to be resolved by the up-loader to deselect "YouTube pages only viewing?"

Another feed that is not working ... http://feeds.feedburner.com/20minCh?format=xml

It gets stuck, wont advance to the next app on 8" insignia, also it reverts back to the programming even after you have previously set options.

FYI...You are limited to only 200 photos using a free Flickr account. You need to upgrade to a Flickr Pro account (currently $24.95/year) if you want to display more than 200 photos.

Good

help

still broken after a week or two "Unable to load deals". New API?

im following the steps and cant use the facebook app on my tv... help!!!

Trying to get the FB app going as well. NOBODY at cust service knows how to do it. Got my TV yesterday and think about returning it already. Very disappointed.

how do I get the code for facebook? 1. Get your activation code.. Follow the instructions on your device to get the Facebook device activation code. 2. Enter the code and click "Connect".. Follow the instructions on the resulting dialog to grant permissions to the application. 3. You're done!. Your device is now connected with Facebook and ready to use. HELP

What happened???? This used to work on both of my Dash's (it's the reason - in part - I bought Dash #2).

I can't get this app to load on my Sony Dash. Is this a known issue?

The reason that this widget is not available on the Sony dash is that Sony has an exclusive arrangement with another weather provider, and that arrangement prevents other weather widgets from being offered.

So why does this app say that it's no longer available on the dash yet it works just fine on my Chumby One?

This app is not working anymore. It just displays a message that says "unable to load deals". Can this please be fixed?

I see there is an update for Chumby. Any chance you are going to update the Sony Dash? /me fingers crossed

Oops, it's broken again. The widget is not displaying the beer rating information. Thanks for a great app, Gonga. Hope it can be fixed soon.

Is there a possibility that a beta version of Google Reader could be in the works for the Beta Chumby One Control Panel which I am told has AS3 support?

Yeah we have 45 and rainy in Grand Rapids Mi as well, Love the app by the way, its part of the morning ritual!!!

Does not work anymore.

Suddenly stopped working. Works correctly in the chumby.com dashboard, but doesn't display on my ChumbyOne. Other apps are working fine. Weird.

Yup! Like the rest of us it hasn't worked for quite some time. And no effort seems to be taking place to fix it either. I have two other apps in the same boat---long not working and not being fixed. I have a bad feeling about the future of Chumby.

Still not working! Displays "Unable to load deals" all the time. And I second the comment about not giving us the "San Gabriel Valley" deals, as "LA" is a bigggg place. I'm getting a bad feeling about Chumby in general, as I have two other apps that are broken and not being fixed.

Looks like I could get all my Podcast except for one. Pretty good app!

I don't know why I can't send the stories I see here into my Email

Seems to work well. One thing, can't seem to figure out how to have the chumby shuffle the photos within a playlist. It will only do the same order every time for me. Suggestions?

Waves and seagulls please!

how do you set it to see the movies?

I just checked and it's still working fine on original and chumby one. I also like the darker buttons.

Hey everybody, sorry this widget is having problems. This takes its data from NOAA, let me send out a few emails and see if I can't get it back on track. Thanks for the patience and the kind words.

Thought LKPixie said it was working on original chumby. Maybe a reboot or delete and re-add the channel?

Nice, makes me wish I was outside lying on the grass watching the clouds go by.

Hi Pete, Yeah I'm getting the flashplayer red "f" icon like LKPixie. Maybe I'm missing an update??

Deb, really? Its supposed to be working on the original chumby now. Not sure why its not working on your device.

This looks like a really cool app but alas I have an Insignia Infocast and it doesn't work. Oh well.

Same here!!!! What is happening to our favorite app. I love this app and now we are stuck on cloudy and 36F and has been for a while. :( please fix!!!!!

still running or what?im a newbie so cant get this working,got this orb on my pc where the webcam is on,chumpy one just keep loading and says wrong login/password.any help?

piece of crap. first you have to know tech support to even get it running .. then it wont stay connected. Trust me all my output wireless is top notch. if you want a good alarm clock this is for you. otherwise over rated. bought tonight at best buy spent too long getting it up and running . Taking it right back tomorrow. Besides the fact of the customer support on the website re : connection : not even the courtesy to respond to everyone. No customer service. Where is the value here. Surely they are making the money to atleast act like they are supportive. Even if it did work top notch just for that I am taking it back and telling everyone to not purchase anything from this company.Our country may be in hard times for all but atleast keep your pride and value. Something alot lack these days. BE different than the rest. Frustrated in Florida ! Thank me for shopping I am not coming back. No tools missing out of this shed!

Same problem here. I wish it was actually 47 and raining in Chicago right now, but it's about 18 and snowing.

Ooops, I meant it's showing 47F and raining. Weather.com says that it's 4F right now. I have tried many different local zip codes and nothing seems to change that.

Trying to set the offset time to +45 and it won't stay. I can change the titles of the clocks though. Hope the bug fix makes this work, I'm looking forward to it.

This is my favorite (and only app I use) and its been stuck on sunny and 47F for over a week. I wish it was 47 and sunny in Chicago right now :-)

Really like this clock. I have a couple of suggestions. First, the white rings around the buttons are kind of bright. Maybe you could make them a lighter grey color? Second, is there any chance you can add 24 hour clock support? Just suggestions. Great work.

Totally not working for the last week. I can haz update?

I'm wondering if there is a way for this to only show the status of a single line between certain times, and only if there is a problem. I.e. from 6am to 9am - if there is a delay on the metropolitan line, then pop up a status screen. If not, continue running other apps (which in my case is the Flickr widget scrolling photos). Basically show me if there is a problem before I go to work - otherwise, show me something more interesting :-)

Is this dead on all units, or just on Dashes? I really liked this app on my Dash.

.... defunto ....

@andreachrista: Why do you think this is a fake? I made it for my own need ans use it every day at my office desk. I know it needs some more development time, therefore I call it beta, but it works.

THIS IS A GREAT APP.... Looking forward to the potential to cycle - that would be a definite game changer! Thanks again DJ

Did something change with this widget? It looks like I can no longer "BEER ME" and it no longer displays the ratings for each bear. Just wondering if these are just some changes being experimented with, or if it's some kind of malfunction.

Hi andtheand2 the message yiu mention is general. Not sure what chumby you have but this app was built for the classic. I dont have or tested any others so cant really help. I dont really support chumby apps any more as am quite disappointed with chumby ind. They promise lots and deliver little. cheers Nigel

Thanks pete676, working perfectly on my original chumby.

Agree witht he last comment -- a rolling 24 hour chart would be better than resetting at midnight.

Thanks for this app, finally someone used the entire screen for a clock. I can see it without my glasses. If by chance you read this would it be hard to make a blue option? It's a bit bright at night even on the dimmest setting. Thanks for your efforts, really appreciated.

I can not find this information anywhere. I have two Chumby's on the same network and from time to time one or the other's Built in Clock colon (:) blinks. Why?

Agreed - seems broken. Has been showing the same temperature for a few weeks now.

Seems broke, always display sunny and 46 degrees.

@jdavid_anderson - With the current CP (5.0.35) it is not possible to disable the browser controls overlay that is shown on page reloads. This is something that is outside the control of this app so a new CP will need to be released, should this be addressed. We'll try to get something in to facilitate such a preference in a persistent manner - perhaps a button on the geek panel and/or perhaps a /psp config file...

I see that the latest version of this app loads a info screen thingy at the top when the page is loading. It is nice to have a touch keyboard option, but is there any way to turn that info screen off. My web page reloads every 30 seconds and I prefer that it doesnt have that on the top each time it reloads. It used to not have it. Is there a way to disable that ? Thanks Dave

Es una aplicación interesante.

Oh, the pain. The pain!!!

This widget only shows 5 photos before looping back to the start. Any way to fix this?

I tried the suggestion above but that didn't work. :(

Are there any caams for volcano surveillance?

@chumzter: Thanks for your reply back on Aug 15th, and I read it then. That answered my question immediately. I had no idea that Sony disallowed relatively innocuous apps such as these. The real reason for my follow-up at this late date though, is: As of today, the Sony Dash is allowing the running of this app! Hooray!

how is that a game??

retarted game!

i beat all the levels! Alot of fun!

:)

cute monsters!

good game

it requires some additional features, but its a really great start. it is the reason i bought a chumby :D

Any idea why my critter thinks it's nighttime when it's afternoon? My system clock is set correctly...does this app read from the system?

please fix!!!!!!!!!!

hi nigel, first of all, thanks a lot for all the work! I've tried to installed the script and widget as you described it, but it seems not working. When I start the widegt I always get the message "this widget requires a script to be installed..." Does this mean, that the installation of the script didn't worked? Or is this just a standard message? Perhaps there is a way to check on the chumby if the script is installed...

I have a Chumby One and it is working Great for Me, Thanks.

Thanks... glad you like it. :)

Seems to be broken these days.

Hi, this is my hands down favorite chumby time app. simple and brilliant. I use it to the exclusion of almost all my other clock apps and have set a channel just for this app to compensate for the faulty "stay" pin feature which goes away and lets other clock apps back on! Thanks for the app.

Thanks for the m/s update. This works great in my Chumby8.

I am using this app to view a family calendar on my chumby. Unfortunately it doesn't know anything about "Umlaute" like "ÜüÖöÄäß". My native language is German, but this issue may occur in most non English languages which are used in Europe. Besides this, great app.

Thank-you both for providing that suggestion. I've added the SI speed units to the configuration dialog. If your chumby (classic, one) hasn't rebooted in the last few days, I recommend you do so now to download the latest control panel software. You should certainly do this if the new WWO release fails to load!

Is it me or can you guys put in any punctuation because when I do it my tweet doesn't load up.

Eewww,. Stop looking at me, creepy.

Yes, the m/s as a possible wind speed selection would be great. That is also used everywhere in the Nordic countries.

Could you add m/s as the wind speed selection? That's what we use here in Northern Europe.

it appears this app is no longer supported by its developer. too bad, has lots of potential

I was unable to test. Can you configure a manual URL or add additional camera types ( ie FOSCAM) ? The other chumby app ( WEB URL ) is no longer supported by its author and the app does not work on chumby 8 tyvm

Thank you everyone for your feedback. I just realized that I need to rewrite from scratch for older chumby devices as they don't use AS3 syntax. Since I am not a programmer and only just learning this Flash thing, this might take a while but I'll work on it. As for a seperate VOL slider, I haven't been able to figure out how to program that. My original app had one, but it didn't do anything. A workaround, which is how I use the chumby, is to set up a "wakeup" channel with an app that has music or whatever it is you want to wake up to. The non-working swfs have been removed to avoid confusion.

This widget was momentarily withdrawn for a few reasons. There were a couple of problems with the chumby software recently. The WWO website changed its location codes and search result format. I wanted to implement local caching of weather data. This widget now loads the saved information much faster.

Doesn't appear on the new Chumby (Chumby 8). I have it in my channel but it will not show up on the actual device.

Would it be possible to put a volume control on the app itself? This would allow the sleep sounds to be quieter while the alarm could retain whatever volume you desired. Thank you so much for your work on this! God Bless!

Thanks for trying, but still not working on the original chumby. I get a small red "f" icon in the center of the screen.

Hello, Now that Picasa uses Google+ to share photos, the URL has changed to a new format that this app won't work with. It is now in the format of (sample): https://plus.google.com/photos/111112233456778/albums/12345678?authkey=zrxdtfcygvubhijn Instead of http://picasaweb.google.com Now I get this error when pasting the above URL (real version, not sample): Please enter a valid Picasa Web Album URL.

Not working for me either. "Cannot open album. Please verify URL." I'm using an album that is available to anyone with the link. VERY FRUSTRATED

Please make this work for Chumby 1. Looks like a great app.
