At the moment is restricted to 1 minute in the code, it's certainly
possible to change that but I want to analyze it a bit to see if it
would cause any other issues before I promise anything.

If you are familiar with development and want to do the changes
yourself, it's this part of the code in CustomClockApplet.lua that
handles the updates:

Code:


  elseif item.itemtype == "rsstext" or item.itemtype == "rssicon" then
  local url = _getString(item.url,"default")
  if forcedUpdate or (self.lastminute!=minute  and minute % 
_getNumber(item.refreshinterval,30) == 0) then
  



You just have to modify the if statement so it enters every time instead
of only once per minute or when the refreshinterval criteria as been
fulfilled.

If I remember correctly there isn't any word-wrap support at the moment,
but I'll add it to the todo list because it should definitely be
possible to implement that since I already have support for it for the
SuperDateTime data.

Second question:
It seems that the refresh at the moment minimum of 1 minute is. Can
Custom clock be configured that the RSS is read every second?
I try to use the Touch as a monitor for pager messages. The RSS server
is locate in house, including all the software which populates the RSS.
So i don't mind that the client (SB Touch in this case) will query every
second. of at least every two seconds.

Thnx, This will do the trick. I didn't install the helper on the server,
so this was the first step.
Right now i have modified the RSS text screen saver and the RSS feed is
displayed.

Just checking how to enable a kind of word-wrap The feed is
displayed in one line, wich is too long for the screen. and i want
to see the complete article (probably two or three lines)

You can change the feed shown through Custom Clock Helper plugin
settings page if you install Custom Clock Helper plugin in the server.
As far as I know there are currently no other option than Custom Clock
if you like to run a RSS as screen saver on the Touch.

[SlimDevices: Touch] Show RSS het SB Touch is 'off'

2012-07-26 Thread cornetje

Hi,

I am new with the Squeezebox Touch and wondering what i can do with the
RSS setting on the squeezebox server. I hoped there is a way that i can
display some rss feeds on my Squeezebox so i can use is as a 'news'
reader. However, i cannot find any RSS readers which i can install as a
app on the SB.

I have tried to install 'Custom Clock', which supports a RSS reader
function, however, i only get a default RSS feed and not the one i have
configured on the server.

Who can help me here?

Thanks in advance,

Pieter
