[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 848"] Hi all, I'm getting ready to send to sourceforge a patch for MP that is the My News RSS Feed reader I talked about in the requested features section. Here's what it can do: - It's a plugin, so you can choose whether to view it or not - Add/edit/delete site info from the Tools->Plugin dialog (info stored in MediaPortal.xml). Be sure to enable and enter some sites before going to the My News screen. - Include a logo for the site, which is display on screen - Enter up to 20 sites, and the display will show the top 10 stories for each site - The stories scrolls in a vertically scrolling text box - Can handle RSS 0.94, 1.0, and 2.0 feeds (I think) - Overlay is possible, so you can watch your TV/videos while reading the news Here's what I need to make this complete: - Background images for both the MetalMedia and CrystalCenter skins - something like a newspaper would be fitting - Strings 13000 and 13001 in strings.xml converted into the various languages other than English (these are displayed in a progress window) - Your feedback! Future plans: - Some sort of news OSD that can run over the video or other windows. Think CNN news ticker. - Refresh timer (similar to the weather app) Please give it a try when Frodo pushes the required files to CVS, and if you'd like to try it yourself before then, you can go to the sourceforge patch page and grab it from there. (I'm going the sourceforge route by Frodo's request). Gilthalas [/QUOTE]
