I'm getting the "[Rss: Read Timeout]" message with some RSS feeds.
I'm sure the address is correct (Firefox has no problem opening these) and the function syntax is right too.

$Rss(http://www.elotrolado.net/temp/rss20.xml,t,1)
$Rss(http://www.megatokyo.com/rss/megatokyo.xml,t,1)
However, other RSS feeds seem to work fine.
Is there a way to specify the timeout for RSS feeds in LCD Smartie?

Re: Rss: Read Timeout
I realise this is an ancient dusty old thread, but I'm hoping there are a few gohsts/developers still haunting the area 
I have setup 3 LCD Smartie driven displays for myself and other people and am also seeing this RSS timeout occur on some feeds sometimes.
It seems to happen on most RSS feeds intermittently, some more often than others, and for a couple of feeds, it only works very intermittenlty (maybe once every day or two).
Oh, the RSS Feeds all read fine in both Opera and FireFox Browsers BTW, its only LCD smartie that is having trouble reading them
Same behaviour on 3 different computers, 2 are fast dual core machines on a high speed cable connection, and the other is single core P4 on an ADSL connection, so I dont think it is machine or connection dependant.
It seems ot have more to do with the response speed of the particular RSS feed.. or perhaps the formatting ?
here is an example of one of the more troublesome feeds
$Rss(http://lusciouslibertine.blogspot.com/f ... =rss,b,1,1)
Anyone have any suggestions ?
