Windows feeder discontinued 7-May-19

[memememe]

I did contact them that day and heard back only today, apologetic and all but Pi it has to be. They did give me 3 months of complelementy subscription to tide me over till Pi

Credit to FR24 for listening, responding and being sympathetic of sorts

OK and thanks for the standing Oblivian. Am contacting

thanks Oblivian, are you saying its worth contacting FR24

Doubt it.

Despite the many disappointments and feelings from users. We've all had to take the hit and adapt just the same. And unfortunately voices aren't heard on forums.

Although it looked hopeful with the additions of the Release/Request enhancement threads they too appear abandoned even though there has been a number of changes to the web front end. The customer interaction soon dropped off again.

The only remaining solution to get users feelings across I can suggest is the official channels.

I have just followed the link you supplied and I have no idea what the hell it's talking about,I'm not a computer programmer,I'm a 60 year old planespotter that's spent his life in construction,that's not an answer to the problem it is a problem itself.

I was in the same state of mind than you some weeks ago when my Windows feed was stopped as I said here :

It would appear that I have overacted as Oblivian said but nevertheless It worked. I'm also in my 60's and it was almost going back to school with the Linux matter but finally I achieved!
What you need is time and a spare laptop and do exactly what abcd567 wrote. I was reluctant at the beginning but because I could not see other solutions I decided to have a go et voila. It is tedious for a non-Linux speaking person but "qui ne tente rien n'a rien" (nothing ventured nothing gained).
I would recommend you to have a try. The final recompense is when, inside Chromium, everything turn green!
Best regards

I have been using a SBS-3 with the WindowsFeeder for FR24 for many years and to my complete satisfaction and would like to continue to supply FR24 with data. An RPi with DVBT stick is out of the question for me. If FR24 does not offer a reasonable alternative, they will have to do without my data and I'm probably not alone with that.

If that's out of the question, the community has provided a free solution if there is some CPU and ram to spare since there's no official alternate if you wish to keep business status.

And that is my stance also

I agree with you

RIP FR24 for me :-(

I gave the bird to Flightaware when they did the same, but was happy to spend some time (but not money) on FR24 as it has better apps and web site.
