Rss Just Wont Work
« on: July 24, 2005, 12:48:00 PM »
I've only recently installed UnleashX and I'm experiencing a problem with RSS feeds.

All the settings for it are fine. The RSS address is correct and RSS news is enabled.

I can FTP fine and the xbox can access the internet fine (RSS works on avalaunch and the like). However, It wont scroll accross.

Whats happened? how do I fix this?

Surely people! Someone must have the same problem.

Any suggestions at all?

The scrolling is all dependent on the skin. Some scroll; some don't.

You need to look into the skin.xml file and find the newsfeed part it will look somthing like this
<Text Top="390" Left="30" Width="440" Scroll="0" Color="0xFF676700" " Source="Newsfeed"></Text>        

note the Scroll="0" bit if it dosn't have that then add it

Scroll="0" = Dont scroll
Scroll="1" = Scroll if its to big for the box its listed in
Scroll="2" = Always Scroll

Hmm. Theres no line like that. Only:

<Text Top="63" Left="240" Width="200" Scroll="0" Color="0xFFFFFFFF" Source="Date" Align="Right" />
<Text Top="395" Left="210" Width="300" Scroll="0" Color="0xFFFFFFFF" Source="SongName" Align="Left" />
<Text Top="395" Left="-10" Width="200" Scroll="0" Color="0xFFFFFFFF" Source="SongTime" Align="Right" />
<Text Top="63" Left="455" Width="200" Scroll="0" Color="0xFFFFFFFF" Source="Time" Align="Left" />

No others. Im using Project Mayhem III for UnleashX. Im surprised it doesnt support newfeeds.

I guess I have to change skin?  :(

Weird, cos theres a bar at the bottom which looks like its ment for newsfeed...

EDIT: Actually, i tihnk the bar is for song names etc

Well if you click on the link for skins in my signature you will see that I've done 4 PM3 skins for UnleashX and all include a newsfeed

I'm Having a similar problem.  The skin I'm using works fine with the default feeds but when I change them to somthing else they won't work at all.  I can get the new feed addresses to work in other programs like firefox and such.  just not with Unleash?  Anyone have any ideas?
