you obviously run an old build. cvs is where the latest code can be found. (that is used by various sources to make the so called builds.
so you need to find a much fresher build!!
the build you need to find must be from the 15th of june or newer.

i thought i 'did lol
no it's not right. feeds are specified in xboxmediacenter.xml as you will notice now. if you dont notice it, it will not function properly.

in xboxmediacenter.xml:
* *<rss>
* * *<set id="1">
* * * *<feed updateinterval="15">http://xml.newsisfree.com/feeds/85/12985.xml</feed>
* * *</set>
* *</rss>
in home.xml or other xml:
* * *<urlset>1</urlset>

why its kinda a script topic, thx alot, i got it working now nuka1195 , and ya the version i had was fine pike, all u had to say was that the newsfeeds were in the xboxmediacenter.xml now :stare:
how the he** am i supposed to know that your build was new enough ??? at the start you didnt say what build you were using, shame on you.
secondly, you didnt take examples from your xml's, but tried something else (no idea what really). you totally wasted my time, so once again, shame on you.
