I don't see it in the plugins dir in the source, nor can I find any rss feature in the main code. Is it going to be re-implemented anytime soon? It was a really handy feature.

johnjaylward Registered Member Posts 63 Karma 0	Thu Apr 24, 2008 6:33 pm Thanks for the hard work, it's much appreciated... as long as it shows up eventually. I'll just downgrade back to 2.x in the meantime.

Rock solid, hate to ask for more but feature I would like to see added would be ability to set download location per filter. So each show goes to unique folder.
johnjaylward Registered Member Posts 63 Karma 0	Thu Jul 17, 2008 1:42 pm if we are making requests, than can I also suggest an option to sort the feeds/filters by name or last update... the default sort is not very user friendly

johnjaylward Registered Member Posts 63 Karma 0	Wed Oct 15, 2008 5:57 pm One thing I'm noticing that's annoying in the 2.x RSS reader is that it runs on the same thread as the UI. when I press the "process" for filters, or "refresh" for feeds, it should spawn an asynchronous call to free up the UI and the UL/DL. Looking at my bandwidth it seems to drop client connections when doing long processing of the feeds due to eating CPU. Sometimes these actions can take up to a minute to complete it seems. Not high priority, but certainly an annoyance. With systems having multiple cores, it seems that more things (like plugin actions) should be pushed off on a separate thread.
realmadpuppy Registered Member Posts 2 Karma 0	will there be search in the rss plugin? Wed Oct 15, 2008 6:06 pm I was wondering if there will be a search function for the rss feed plugin. not a big deal, its just that I tend to keep a listing for longer than a month.

I use google reader for my searches. It's pretty convenient, and I don't have to clog up the RSS plugin with unneeded history.
