I'm afraid you need to build it from the sources, if you want to switch to a previous version. Checkout commit 66f45a2f58026aa13b8a8debff585a8e34fccf50 from indi-3rdparty and build it. You can get it from here: github.com/indilib/indi-3rdparty

So if I build the indilib from commit 91bcd531c4631805d24d38343692fb8acf8fff6a (1.8.9 release) and downgrade the weatherradio firmware+ driver to 1.12 then the parameter updates fine. But if I keep the indilib at 1.9.0 then the weather does not auto refresh no matter what driver/firmware of weatherradio that I use.
So any bug if there are any must be on the indilib core right?

I have the Cloudwatcher weather system - and mine too no longer refreshes.
Is anyone working on fixing this bug?

 

I think we should bring this to Jasem attention.

I'll check it.

Great. Thanks Wolfgang. Let me know if there are anything I could do to help.

Hello Wolfgang,
Did you mangage to recreate the problem?

Hm, seems like my reply hasn't made it's way to the forum. No, I could not reproduce it - neither with INDI 1.9.0 nor with INDI 1.9.1.

I remember that I had temporarily the problem. But as far as I remember, the problem was that I compiled it against an older INDI version. As soon as I installed INDI 1.9.1 at least, the problem disappeared.

That is weird. If I downgrade my indilib to 1.8.9 then weather radio update just fine. As soon as I update it to 1.9.1 or 1.9.0 it breaks.

Cloudwatcher still broke.   I just tried the new Astroberry 2.0, which also now has INDI 1.9.0 and it too now fails to refresh.  

So I installed a fresh nightly build on a new linux image (I am using a VM) and the weather radio now refreshes fine.Try to install a fresh nightly build. It worked for me.

I just updated my STABLE version with a normal update/upgrade and was excited to see that all the INDI drivers were updated - including Cloudwatcher NG from version 1.5 to 1.6.

Now it's completely broken. It won't read any of the sensors. It loads up, sees my Cloudwatcher and gets the firmware version etc, but it wont read any of the sensors. I see that this new version can read the relative humidity - which is a feature of the newest version of Cloudwatcher, but not the previous versions, like I have (2020).

So now I am much worse off than before - and this is with just the STABLE version of KStars/INDI.
