RSS Ticker

[Sambal]

Removed the message completely. It will show up in the log at debug level though.

Teuf,

Sorry for the delay. These are my scripts (and small program) that I use to generate my rss.xml file that is configured in the plugin.

I have the MP Web Interface plugin so when I build a new rss.xml I just copy it across to this directory.

I have also included my patched myhome.xml which is for the Blue Two skin.

Basically everytime I record something I use the comskip launcher (to run comskip via a bat then) call addRecorded.cmd.
Everytime I download a torrent using vuze I use the CommandRunner plugin in Vuze (Azureus) to call addDownloaded.cmd

Sambal's plugin picks up the rss and shows it as a scrolling 'updates' stream on my home page.

Hope all this makes sense. Let me know if not.

Cheers

again Sambal.. your final \n version works perfectly!

I use the latest SVN of Mediaportal and the latest stable Aeon Wide release.
I thougt I don't have to modify the Basichome.xml with the new Aeon Version because the code for RSS Ticker is already implemented, but it's not working for me. No News and no weather.

Do i still have to modify the basichome.xml of Aeon Wide?

[Darre]

Yes. Just download the aeon menugenerator, open your basichome.xml and select weather etc.

Thanks Darre. It works now!

Has anyone been having problems with this plugin after updating to RC3? Mine is displaying the weather image correctly but condition and temperature don't work most of the time

No problems here!

Hi,

Try to use only <align> and not <textalign>!
And here the latest image:

Hi,

Anyone knows a way to hide the main menu in blue3Wide, so that only the ticker and the video file are on screen?

I have made some mods to the .xml files to place the ticker where I want, but I cannot make the main menu disappear, leaving only the ticker and the video playing. I want to do that.

I turned my ticker graphic into a button object, and when ever I click it, the menu zooms out, but inmediately zooms back in.

Any ideas?
