CPU temp revisited

[ThE ScReW]

Works just fine

[badubo]

Slight update (same link):

- Added the possibility to display temps in Farenheit
simply us valuef instead of value
- I saw that sometimes, xlobby doesn't update the value (doesn't call the plugin) so I added a mechanism for forcing update when the value of a sensor has changed

[GFORCE]

how do you get the temperature symbols?

[badubo]

Which "symbols" ? the values or the °C ?

[GFORCE]

the °C

[badubo]

create a text zone and put "°C", these symbols don't come from the plugin

[GFORCE]

Cool, Thanks badubo

A Question,
Is it possible to get the CPU Usage/Load Meter in Xlobby?

and Do you know any way to show the system's IP Address in Xlobby?

Just wanted to say once again...

THANX FOR ANOTHER GREAT PLUGIN BADUBO!!

Btw i noticed hardway how vital it is to keep atention of HTPC temperatures... simply because my xgf runs too hot!! Her visit made ambient house temperature to rise couple degrees which in turn made processor unable to keep cool... Luckily theater, P3rvette and yours truly did their share to compensate for failing HTPC.... Now im just waiting fan assed butterfly to rescue...

Maybe it just me who sees cats all around... but as a thought mayby u could put item/temperature pairs from speedfan directly into a cat also, i think that would ease distribution of speedfan enabled skins and be more true to spirit of lobby.

EDIT: and if u do that, make cat update itself, instead of recreate, so users can keep their heat source descriptive coverart, but im sure u already thought of that...

Badubo, would it possible to get those hard disk fitness values based on S.M.A.R.T out of speedfan? would be great to see directly on HTPC beforehand if some of the discs might be aproaching their demise...

BIG +1 here too. Would be very handy to get this sort of report on my music-server via thin client, as I don't have instant access to that computer under normal everyday life.

I noticed while playing with it yesterday, that theres also xAP plugin for Speedfan, trough it u can get out anything u can log within speedfan, but as far as i know, this only add voltages beyond capabilities of this plugin (and who the hell is interested about voltages anyway???)... so my requests are still very valid indeed. Also i would like to request possibility to control fan speeds, beyond simple monitoring

Hello,

the smart information from HD are not provided with the shared memory. I don't think there is a way to access it.
