You have to edit the /userdata/rssfeeds.xml file - I've posted mine below as an example. The items in set id="2" will display on the bottom feed.

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<rssfeeds>
  <!--RSS feeds. To have multiple feeds, just add a feed to the set. You can also have multiple sets.-->
  <!--To use different sets in your skin, each must be called from skin with a unique id.-->
  <set id="1">
    <feed updateinterval="30">http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_topstories.rss</feed>
    <feed updateinterval="30">http://feeds.feedburner.com/xbmc</feed>
  </set>
  <set id="2">
    <feed updateinterval="30">http://www.mpiii.com/scores/mlb.php</feed>
    <feed updateinterval="30">http://www.mpiii.com/scores/nfl.php</feed>
    <feed updateinterval="30">http://www.mpiii.com/scores/ncaa.php</feed>
  </set>
</rssfeeds>

Hope that helps.

My bottom rss line is not working on the latest stable build. has this been disabled?

I am trying to add my sharethe.tv rss feed and it doesnt work. I also tried to put it on the top rss feed and it doesnt work either. Does anyone have this feed working with neon?

My top line feed works, I've added feeds from several different sites. However, I've never tried to enable the bottom line feed.

It has something to do with Sharethe.tv - the rss feeds from other locations are working fine, top or bottom placement.

Only because the "bottom line" rss feed is unique to this skin. There is the standard RSS feed on the top of the screen and then the option to have a second rss feed on the bottom of the screen, utilizing the <set id="2"> option in the rssfeeeds.xml file. Even with the rss editor there is not a way to use rss sets without manually editing the xml.

I use the top for the the standard xbmc feed and another from bbc news while the bottom one is strictly sports scores. That one is also available while watching videos with a simple press of a button...

Example:

The current one on is 217x25, but the only part the really matters visually is the height of 25, width can be whatever you wish.

Would you believe I don't remember? I'll have to check it out this weekend as it's been a long time since I have used that feature. I believe I changed the key mapping.
