When I originally tested this, I was trying to power the switch with

work...
Turning power on during idle or playing state, and off during
unavailable and off state. Should work.

Home assistant has a squeezebox integration and already could display
the status of the various players, or serve as a basic remote for them.
It just couldn't trigger an action on state change (unless I missed how
this can be achieved)
So, node-red poll on the status as seen in home assistant
doing some debugging I realized that at boot time, there's a period
where the player isn't ON yet, but is not OFF either. it is
"unavailable"
So I'll find a way to prevent these unwanted power-on

I've been trying to configure custom clock to display a news feed.

The few feeds that actually work are all plain http.
Am I right in understanding that only non secured rss feeds work?

I was thinking of hosting a copy of an https rss file locally, possibly
copied automatically from a cron job on my lms server, but so far I've
had no luck getting the RSS service to display even a copy of a known

I thought for a while the issue was secured/unsecured but I found
unworking unsecured ones.
I also thought it was Atom VS RSS but I found working and unworking in
both flavour.
I don't know why most don't work...
I am having a very hard time finding rss feeds that the aggregator
accepts. About 90% of the feeds I find online displays nothing.
I'm not sure why.
In the meantime here's a jivelite800x480 version that works for stocks,
news and sports, has weather / forecast, analog and digital clock.

The RSS aggregator seems to be rather picky about the form of the feed.
Many feeds I am trying aren't working.
Having one that works as an example helps in the searches.
