Full Version: Display RSS or media source as widget?

Hello,

The wife and I frequently use xbmctorrent to view content on our media box. I like the widgets that are available for Aeon Nox, and am wondering if it is possible to use a widget to display "New Releases" on our home screen. This way we can quickly see new releases without needing to navigate menus.


The two methods I've theorized are:
1) Plug in an RSS feed of the sources "new releases" to display the content

OR

2) Add the "new releases" list as a media source then link that source to the widget


The trouble is, I have yet to come across a widget able to scrub and display an RSS feed as content with artwork, description, etc. Also I haven't been able to find a way to link a widget to a specific media source; not to mention the fact that adding the list as a source would add a link to my library causing clutter.

I've been trying to figure out a way to make this happen for months but I'm stumped. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone,
Mike
