Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more! 1.6.0

Not directly related to Weather Overlay Issue - I have a perennial issues with task windows opening from the weather overlay tab of BIT. Windows open fine from other tabs. When I click on "Results" or "BI Macros" on the Overlay tab, the windows do not open on screen. When I mouse over the taskbar, the thumbnails are open, but I cannot select and open them. I can usually live without seeing these windows, but it is a pain when I need them! It occurs when I run as administrator or normal. This has been the usual for many months. Anyone have any ideas or clues I can chase?
 
No need to look for other weather solutions, there is an update coming out real soon. Everyone make sure you have auto-update enabled.

I'm deploying BIT with two weather options, one requiring WU station ID only, and another that allows you to input an API key along with the station ID.

Stay tuned, more info and update coming soon.

Hi Mike,

I'm happy to beta test. I have two PWS's, one in the UK and one in Portugal if that's any use.

Cheers

great work again by the way!

Done, thanks. You have access to the beta section now.

@dshehane this will be fixed in the next release.
 
WU has not worked for me for awhile. Did WU change something?

Works Great! Thanks. I am currently using it with the Station ID and the update worked immediately. I will try it using my API as well.

Thanks again!

Fantastic work guy!!! thanks!!!
 
For some reason BIT 1.6 is really using a lot of CPU...it has held there for 10 minutes. I did just use the upgrade option in BIT 1.5 to update.

Ok, all is good now. Before I restarted the pc, I added my station ID back in and this time the CPU was normal ?? But I did a restart and it works ok. Thanks Mike for your hard work ! CPU usage runs around 1.7% now :)
