[REQUEST] A RSS reader/parser

..that is able to display more than the headline - as a script or plugin inside xbmc.

as most rss feeds already use xml to store information, it should'nt be too hard to create a reader that can display full (text) contents for given feeds, is it?

it's nice to have those headlines of custom rss-feeds scrolling through the home window, but some of them get my attention and i want to read more - which until today means get up and jump to my pc.

reading the feeds inside xbmc would be lovely!

Im not sure about reading, but Navi-X has great rss support.

yes, it opens rss feeds, but it displays headlines only, too. clicking on a line brings a "loading.." dialog, but nothing happens - and i get a message from xbmc that playlist has been stopped since too many entries can't be displayed.

Hello,

Try with multiRSS

What's up Azido, I'm pretty sure I just answered your question... contact rodejo16@gmail.com for questions and help with Navi-X Media Browser functionality. http://www.navi-x.org

i tried navi-x, but unfortunately it's rss-feed-capability is designed for video feeds and not for text-feeds, where it still only shows the headlines.

i must admit i didn't contact rodejo16 yet because of my own findings.

i still see no rss-feed reader for xbmc where i can display more than just the headlines (or multimedia content).

From my understanding there is not a script or plugin out that parses html and text correctly from RSS. If you can convince Rodejo to work on it, that would be awesome! Shoot him and e-mail and see what he says. Good luck.

did you try multiRSS as jpoveda suggested?

nope, not yet - since i only found a plugin for wordpress that is called multiRSS.

can you point me to the correct one?

I was looking for one too, but now I don't really need it anymore.

Two things that could be improved: the description part doesn't scroll, and the HTML tags aren't stripped.
