Local Forecast / Re: Should TWC replace the overnight non live / repeated forecast with a weather sca

« on: December 02, 2008, 07:26:08 AM »

I think what he's trying to say is that he wants TWC Australia to show 24-Hour weather coverage like what our TWC did in the 80s and 90s. Unfotunately, it may not happen. Even if they're changing up the schedule, they'll probably fill the overnight timeslots with weather-related documentaries.

Local Forecast / Re: Found Full-Length Mark Krurnowski Songs

Thanks.

I have no luck on some other "Unavailable" artists, but I do believe this is how TWC and a few other networks obtain the background music.

Caught on, have they? What the heck took them so long to admit it?

Local Forecast / Found Full-Length Mark Krurnowski Songs

« on: December 01, 2008, 06:43:10 PM »

This evening, I've accidentally stumbled upon this website entitled neosounds.com and believe it or not, I have found a list of some Mark Krurnowski songs used on TWC's LOT8s and ABC's "America This Morning" weather segments. The only drawback is that the downloads are $29.95 each. However, you can also listen to the full-length songs online.

You can see a list of songs by Mark Krurnowski on the link below:

BTW, the LF song listed on the April and May 2006 playlists titled "East Coast Cruise" is actually "Back Sea Trader". "East Coast Cruise" is a completely different song.

What follows is my attempt at the October 2007 revamp of the Satellite Feed banners as requested on TWC Classics. The last 3 almost looks the same as the previous set, but this uses the current radar banner on the IntelliStar.

3-Day Forecast:


3-Day w/Black Text


Severe Weather Alerts:


Thunderstorm Forecast:


Radar/Satellite:


The 4-Day one (another request) will be coming later this week.

Now that another DCCCD college campus has opened in Coppell, I went and updated the emulators with the current and web-friendly icons to include Coppell. Another tweaking I did was to make it a similar format to DirecTV and Dish Network's LDL prior to June 2008.

I did my revisions of my IS Blackbar emulator by adding the 24-hour forecast...and did version 3 with the web friendly icons.

Local Forecast / Re: Another New XL

« on: November 28, 2008, 10:26:59 PM »

It seems they're slowly phazing out the 4000s here in TX.

I feel like FTPing the XL to extract some files if I have the know-how.

How could you possibly FTP into the XL?

That's the thing, I couldn't.

BTW, nice find on that XL, Chris.

Michael, how come your not on Google talk anymore imp?

I'm still on. Must've been a glitch. I'll see if I can troubleshoot IMP.

The other night at a local supermarket I heard "Green Onions" by Booker T and the MG's. I guess it isn't that unusual to hear that song, though.

It was a regular song on Oldies station 98.7 K-Luv in DFW before 2006.

Also on Thanksgiving Night 2006, I've heard "Creole Dreams" by Nestor Torres on a local Time Warner Public Access channel.
