Local RSS Feed - Dav. - 2008-08-30
Hi All,
It's possible to use Local Rss Feed (local network) ?
Used Search to find something in "XBMC For Windows" without success.
Thx,
Dav.

Thanks for your reply, blittan.
Fisrt question :
So, if I understand you, I can use local adresse like this ?
Code:
<rssfeeds>
<set id="1">
<feed updateinterval="30">http://192.168.1.102/Feeds/rss.htm</feed>
</set>
</rssfeeds>But Rss must be a xml file, not a htm file, no ?
And how to give the right folder on another Hard Drive (ex: "e:/XBMC_Feed/") ?
Second Question :
All my files Music, Video, etc ... are on my server : 192.168.1.100
Files are located on my hard drive "G:/Music", "G:/Video", ...
I would like to place my RSS file on the same place "G:/Feed".
I'm Running XBMC (for windows) from 192.168.1.102 and XBMC (for Xbox)from 192.168.1.75
How to read the same feed from two different location & system ?

The crash will happen regardless I think you'll find (it depends on which point the RSS reader is at when it occurs), and was fixed post Alpha4.
If a local file is supported (which I don't know if it is or not) then it'll be using the standard URL format:
smb://hostname/share/path_to_file

Jonathan,
Thanks for your reply.
In Alpha 4 SMB is not supported (yet) ?
Anyway, I found a solution with XMBS
My Solution to create a local RSS Feed (on a local network) :
1) Create a folder (for me "RSS") & place your "Rss.xml" inside this folder
2) Using CCxGui & add the folder to share
3) Open "RssFeed.xml" (on vista : C:\Users\"NameOFYourComputer"\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\UserData)
4) Give the root of your XML (my media are located on 192.168.1.100)
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<rssfeeds>
<set id="1">
<feed updateinterval="30">xbms://192.168.1.100:1400/RSS/Movie_Rss.xml</feed>
<feed updateinterval="30">xbms://192.168.1.100:1400/RSS/Music_Rss.xml</feed>
</set>
</rssfeeds>Note : this method is ONLY used to announce new media arrived.
This is a exemple of my Movie_Rss.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<rss version="2.0">
<channel>
<title>New</title>
<item><title>Movie N°1</title></item>
<item><title>Movie N°2</title></item>
<item><title>Movie N°3</title></item>
</channel>
</rss>Why ? :
I have 5 kids & I'm using XBMC on :
- My Xbox
- My Bedroom
- My Computer
All Media are located on my local server & this feed is to annouce what new media is arrived.
There is no link to link or something else ;-)
Enjoy !

If xbms works, then there's no reason that smb wouldn't work as well.

Are you sure Jonathan ?
See this caps (in FR sorry) :
Translation for the second caps :
Code:
Error
Error-1073741772: Share not availableAnyway it work for me with XBMS (its better than SMB)
Cheers,
Dav.
- jmarshall - 2008-08-31
All that doesn't work is browse (for some users - not all). Not really sure as yet why this is.
Typing in the server name and then browsing works.
- Dav. - 2008-08-31
Nope it's not working for me.
As I said, it's working under XMBS.
For me it's better than SMB & I don't have to share another folder under Vista
Just need to share it with CCxGui -> is more secure because no one on the
network can access the folder, except me ^^.
- jmarshall - 2008-08-31
Search the forum for vista + smb - there's some workarounds you need to do. Ofcourse, if you don't care about smb sharing, then don't bother!
Cheers,
Jonathan

Would this work?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<rssfeeds>
<set id="1">
<feed updateinterval="30">http://192.168.1.100/Music/$INFO[MusicPlayer.Artist]/Rss.xml</feed>
</set>
</rssfeeds>
- spiff - 2009-10-06
no.
- joebrady - 2009-10-06
Any ideas on how to make something like that work?
- spiff - 2009-10-06
why would you want to do something like that? load the rss xml for the artist you are playing every 30th minute. does not compute
