RSS news multiple feeds in same spot
#1
if user has several news feeds it would be nice to be able to have these appear squentially in the same spot. so an addition to the xml could fex be:
<control>
<description>rss feed</description>
<type>rss</type>
<id>1</id>
<posx>40</posx>
<posy>480</posy>
<feed1>http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/xbox...ml</feed1>
<feed2>http://www.dailygame.net/news/archives/c...ml</feed2>
</control>

you know you can easily just copy rss2.py in your /scripts folder, rename it something else, change the pos values and add a line in autoexec.py

it's really not hard.

not sure if we're talking about the same rss feed now but. the point with my post was that i'd like the different feeds to appear scrolling after one and other in the same spot. much like in avalaunch. i.e. no editing of pos values. afaik the rss in home.xml is not a python script?

it's not, it's coded into the home screen directly.

that's funny...i just signed onto the forums to request this feature and it's already been requested!! i like the vcdquality newsfeeds but there are different ones for divx,svcd,vcd, ect...plus i may still like the occasional xbox-scene (even though i get all the x-s headlines from avalaunch). great feature on the new release! the feed looks nice. it scrolls much better than the python script. although i still have to give much respect to the python scripter (alx) for keeping me happy until now. thanks!
