Rss feed Ticker - show only first 5 entries
#1
Hello all.

Is there a way to have the nice "Rss feed Ticker" show only the first 5 (or what ever number you want) entries from a feed?

Code:
<feed updateinterval="30">http://xbmc.org/feed</feed>

would become say

Code:
<feed updateinterval="30" amount="5">http://xbmc.org/feed</feed>

Some of the Feeds I use have like 40 or 50 entries. And it can take a long time to scroll pass them all. Would be nice of I could limit the amount before the next site feed comes onto the screen.

Thanks for reading

No, there isn't such an option for the RSS ticker.

You could download and massage the feeds yourself, reduce them to 5 each and create your own feed?
If I have helped you or increased your knowledge, click the 'thumbs up' button to give thanks :) (People with less than 20 posts won't see the "thumbs up" button.)

Yes, I know I could go and play around with something like feedburner (is that still going) and re-construct all the feeds into just one master feed. But that means going around and messing about with third party websites. Would be far nicer to just have the setting available inside XBMC.

Well, Maybe in the future we can have that. It's not like it's super important.


Thanks for getting back to me
