Time And Temp
I am the television Services Administrator for KATV channel 8 for the City of Arvada, Colorado. We use both Cablecast and Carousel andthnaks to tightrope for they have made our lives/jobs a lot easier, however i have one request. We have a program from Keywest technology and that program constantly show the time and temperature on our channel. We actually have probe that is just outside City hall that gives us a correct temperature. It is by far the most popular item on our station. I would like to see tightrope to try and incorporate that into their systems, I am aware that the carousel has the slide but it takes the temperature from metro Denver, which believe or not can have the temperature range between 10 to 15 degrees difference. I would love to hear feedback or possible ideas into incorporating this into Cablecast. Thanks

Inappropriate?Does this system put our RSS? You could bring in the data on an RSS page with that plug-in.

Inappropriate?I can't be sure, but from Keywest's site, it seems like any software you have would be controling a Keywest hardware overlay unit. If that's the case, you can still use that to do your temp thing. Tightrope does have a weather plugin, though it gets its data from the NWS and not from your city hall. Did Keywest sell you the thermometer and cabling too? Just wondering...
