You can edit:
~/Library/Application Support/XBMC/UserData

I seem to be having the same problem. I change/add feeds and nothing happens. I still get Apple News on my main RSS feed.

I just Edited ~/Library/Application Support/XBMC/RssFeeds.xml to look like:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<rssfeeds>
<!-- RSS feeds. To have multiple feeds, just add a feed to the set. You can also have multiple sets. !-->
<!-- To use different sets in your skin, each must be called from skin with a unique id. !-->
<set id="1">
<feed updateinterval="30">http://xbmc.org/forum/external.php?type=RSS2</feed>
<feed updateinterval="30">http://www.osxbmc.com/feed/</feed>
</set>
</rssfeeds>


This shows the RSS feed for the forums and for Elan's Blog.

ok thank you, i'll try.
But in the meantime... do you know what the <feed> tag needs? I want to display specifically this feed: http://www.repubblica.it/rss/homepage/rss2.0.xml (it's an italian newspaper) and 'til now doesn't work. Do i need to put it without the .xml extension? I've tried to reach inside the code to find something different and more reliable but there's no address inside.

thanks!

guys,

The folder does not exist, so I create it:
~library/application support/XBMC/UserData/RssFeeds.xml, and copy evrything from the original package (into this folder only).
Edit it correctly..and??

Nothing...still gatting the Apple hot news RSS...

Please advice,
Tomer
