Hello,

Before diving into the XBMC code, i was wondering if you have a solution/ideas/pointers for a feature that currently isn't present in XBMC.

In a nutshell: we have a requirement for having an 'Always on top' RSS ticker at the bottom of the screen. This is for our soccer club where,
in the weekends, live footbal is displayed on various TV screens. What we want is the ability to show live results of our own teams preferably
displaying them using a RSS feed.

All suggestions are welcome

Sounds like changing the skin would be enough for doing this...

is the rss data available from guiinfomanager already?

Just put something like https://github.com/Black09/Xperience1080...om_RSS.xml to your skin .xml files (important, filename must start with "Custom"!). You will have te edit out "!Window.IsVisible(fullscreenvideo)" condition from it so it is visible in video playback.

Thanks Pieh,

I will definitely give this a try

Finally found some time to look at this... no luck so far
I copied the Confluence skin and added a Custom_RSS.xml to the file system and made the modifications as suggested.
It shows the ticker in the Home screen only.

Any ideas?.

it seems this needed more adjustments - try this one (working in confluence) http://pastebin.com/SL9krs9a
