OK I'm having a slight problem with RSS feeds in XTV

I really want multiple feeds on my home screen one on top and one on bottem.

This should be easy and simple

So I make two sets of feeds

<rssfeeds>
<set id="1">
<feed updateinterval="30">http://feeds.feedburner.com/xbmc</feed>
</set>
<set id="2">
<feed updateinterval="30">http://www.prisonplanet.com/feed</feed>
</set>
</rssfeeds>

and I point to them in my Includes.xml

<include name="page-info">
<control type="rss">
<description>rss feed</description>
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>545</posy>
<width>720</width>
<font>font14</font>
<urlset>1</urlset>
<textcolor>info-text</textcolor>
<titlecolor>rss-title-text</titlecolor>
<headlinecolor>rss-headline-text</headlinecolor>
</control>
<control type="rss">
<description>rss feed</description>
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>10</posy>
<width>720</width>
<font>font12</font>
<urlset>2</urlset>
<textcolor>info-text</textcolor>
<titlecolor>rss-title-text</titlecolor>
<headlinecolor>rss-headline-text</headlinecolor>
</control>

But no matter what I try I get the same result. It runs two RSS feeds just like I want, one on top and one on Bottom but no matter how I do it I get the same feed on both. I want each feed to be a different set but it won't work lol ANy ideas?

don't know if it makes sense, but i would try different descriptions for those feeds. like i.e.

<description>xbmc feed</description>
and
<description>prisonplanet feed</description>

cheers,azido :;):

only thing i can think of is that you have edited the wrong rssfeeds xml file (no mention of platform and no log so hard to tell)

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.
