RRRSSReader... because this place is a ghost town!

Gee guys where's all the plugin development!?! lol

Started working on this as a simple request here in the subforum. RRRSSReader is a plugin which allows up to 50 rss feeds to be displayed and read from RR. Its pretty simple in nature... one screen shows your list of feed URLs (listed by title), and the "read" screen shows the available topics listed as well as a description box. Descriptions can be read via TTS, and the "goto" command shows the full URL to the associated topic in your web browser.

This plugin should work with all rss 1.0/2.0 urls.

Status: pretty much done, need some more experience RSS users to test

UPDATED with link: https://autoappmart.com/products/RRRssReader_124

Some notes/questions:
-I've been outta the RR Plugin game now for over a year. There's bound to be bugs here
-Thanks for the carwings SDK. It really should be sticked in this forum AND the skin forum considering its the "default" skin now
-This plugin needs a better name and better skin!:laugh:
-How the heck do i remove the windows media player icon from the CL?

i put the old rss feed link for my ancient traffic details plugin and the link STILL works. Pretty amazing lol

in your sc line

sc,xx,xx,xx,xx,123,123,123,3,000,000

if i remeber right

thanks.

so the plugin is done .. in its current form. Who wants to test? It'll probably be on the Mp3car App store tomorrow.

added link in first post

Cool , It's a good plugin .

Thanks for this share

Found a small bug in your "Uninstall.cmd". It is referencing another Plugin of yours...

regasm /u /tlb RRVehicleMaintenance.dll

A couple more bugs I came across with the bundled demo skin.

When I selected a feed with zero available topics and click "RSSREADER_GETFEEDS" button, the label "Rssreader_description" will still display news from the last read topic instead of showing nothing/blank.

The "RSSREADER_READ" command causes my music which was in pause mode to play before it reads out via TTS.

will fix both issues tomorrow. Its funny... i couldnt even get the "READ" function to work and all it is ina "TALK;Description" command honestly. Ill put a status check before controlling the audio.

This is cool. Can have a preloaded RRS feeds on skin bugs via my tracker, to be viewed directly in the skin. :)
