Local Forecast / Re: New Product Playlists (flavors) being tested

I can't believe even after all these changes, they STILL haven't enabled the regional maps.

Do you have marine and traffic products? If so, that's probably why.

I do have marine products, but for a couple months last year, I can recall consistantly seeing them appear. When they stopped appearing consistantly, I'd occasionally see them if the marine forecast was unavailable or the radar screen was omitted. But recently (before all these changes were made yesterday), they were completely omitted, even during the 1 min flavor (the 8 city list was shown instead).

I wonder if this means my intellistar will add in the regional maps again.

Actually, if you browse those directories, there's 2 undiscovered 4000's. One in Willmar, and the other in Alexandria.

Speaking of unknown songs....I think I may have found the unknown latinish April 2007 primetime song. The  guitar sounds the same. O_o

And the artist would be...??

Wow, something's really screwed up at the reporting station in Dover. Look at the current temp at 5:55 PM, and all the other times! 

I've seen something like that happen with Watsonville before. Everything but the temperature, pressure, and wind chill displayed. The pressure was fine, and the temperature said 2000° with a 10000° wind chill or something. lol
The last time I saw that happen was during the wildfires that happen almost exactly a year ago in that area.

I found another clip of that international forecast song. It appears to be a different cut or something.

I have a feeling it's in the Dewolfe library, since according to your list of all the TWN songs, many songs from this era came from the Dewolfe library. However, I have no idea which section to even begin looking in.

Does anyone know what screens were shown during the 1 minute flavor on the XL v1?

It didn't although it's a great song for TWC...Enya's music fits too.

Yup, that song did play on TWC. Very seldom will I use a song that has not been featured on TWC.

I had no idea you liked music from classic TWC. I always thought of you liking songs TWC used in the current era.

There are a few that really stand out to me. "Whispers of Light" is one of them.

I'm starting to think the regional map has been completely discontinued on my intellistar..

I have a feeling it can still draw it... your IntelliStar could possibly not have any room to show it though.

Oh it can draw it I'm sure, it just chooses not to. >.<

Here's the recording of that song I took waaaaaayyy back in 1999 with my tape recorder (the quality isn't that good). I also attached another track that I recently heard on a commercial that played on that same channel waayy back in 1999.

I hope I'm not steering this topic away too much. If I am, could one of the admins split this off to a new topic?

So this isn't a TWN song, but I was wondering if you could still help me. Would you happen to know the name of the song in this video that starts at around 2:05 during the Mexico commercial? I've heard that song used for numerous commercials, and I even caught it playing several years ago at a hotel on one of the hotel's private channels.
