Hey!

I just download the newest version of XBMC on my HTPC.
I just wondered how I can edit the text that is rolling in the bottom of the mainmenu?
Is it fetching from a feed or something? How can I edit the feed adress, or the edit the text?

no way anyone other wondered about this ... EVER. no way!

Let me translate that for you. You should try searching the wiki and the forums before you post obvious questions.

Thank you very much, this was just what I need!

I will take a look in the wiki, next time i write a post

Just be careful with cut/paste. The CNN feeds have updateinternal instead of updateinterval.

I have now edit the rssfeed.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>


<rssfeeds>


<set id="1">

<!-- RSS feeds from skynews.com !-->

<!-- World News !-->
<feed updateinterval="30">http://alkjeks.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default</feed>


</set>

</rssfeeds>

But it still shows "XBMC - media center - Linuxtag here we go... "

you have to update the one in the userdata folder, not the one in the xbmc folder

ah, thanks! It works now!

Is it possible to write a text instead of a rss feed?

[Haggy]

As it is the rss control you're seeing i guess no - or maybe stick your text in an rss feed

[spiff]

yes, stick it in a rss file (local/smb/http does not matter) and point a feed to it. voila

[Haggy]

that actually brings up an idea to pipe good old /usr/games/fortune into a feed

Cool, thanks, ill try this when I come home from work

[klikkamongo]

It works Im just streaming from a .xml file I have made at c:
