How do I add RSS feeds?

[Espen]

Ok, I have added a few news RSS feeds from the Advanced tab, but they do
not show up neither in the web interface nor on the Controller. On the
Advanced tab page it says "Click on the Change button when you are done"
but I can not see such a button.

The new entries have been saved to /var/lib/squeezecenter/prefs/plugin/rssnews.prefs
and the header of that file looks like this:

_ts_feeds: 1209417902
_ts_items_per_feed: 1200006174
_ts_modified: 1209416828
_version: 2

I also have an infobrowser.ompl file in the playlist directory, but
that one has not been updated.

I have restarted squeezecenter once but that did not help.
SqueezeCenter Version: 7.0.1 - 19177

You add news feeds to the RSS news feeds ticker for the screen saver

You add news feeds to Infobrowser settings to view news feed on Infobrowser.

Ah, thanks! Works well

But, I do not think it is particularly obvious to have two different forms
for entering this. I can not have been the only one fooled by this and most
people do not ask.

The menu options are "RSS News Ticker " and "Infobrowser" and there Plugins and Advanced settings for Both "Rss News Ticker" and "Infobrowser".

How else can they be more different ?

[Espen]

Well, I looked for RSS and found it, I did not even consider "information browser" and had
to ask in the end to get it working. I assume I am not the only one. It is just an observation.
I am not going to start a big argument about this though.

I'm not trying to start an argument but trying to find out what other info should be added to make the difference clearer ? Both Plugins handle RSS but for different end-uses.

The name "RSS News Ticker" is usually only seen on SBs screen (or WebUI screensave setting); it is not a menu option on SBC so I think the issue of confusion has only been arising from SBC users. However SBC users are accessing RSS from Infobrowser menu.
