Not reading RSS

[goncalovsc]

Yeah, i installed an older version of raspian and it worken now, 2 months later. With the NY Times it works, but with my RSS it just stays on loading

@ninjabreadman said in Not reading RSS:

curl http://www.cmjornal.pt/rss

I understood what you meened now, i runned that command and it loaded the RSS, but in the magicMirror app just says loading

@goncalovsc That was just to check that the MM could reach cmjornal.pt.

Hmm, if it works with NYT, it may have a problem parsing your RSS feed. Start your MM with npm start dev to see errors in both Terminal and the Chrome/Electron JavaScript console.

The RSS feed contains errors, but it still loads for me:

This is my newsfeed.js file

// Default module config.
	defaults: {
		feeds: [
			{
				title: "Ultimas Noticias",
				url: "http://www.cmjornal.pt/rss",
				encoding: "UTF-8" //ISO-8859-1
			}
		],
		showSourceTitle: true,
		showPublishDate: true,
		showDescription: false,
		wrapTitle: true,
		wrapDescription: true,
		truncDescription: true,
		lengthDescription: 400,
		hideLoading: false,
		reloadInterval: 5 * 60 * 1000, // every 5 minutes
		updateInterval: 10 * 1000,
		animationSpeed: 2.5 * 1000,
		maxNewsItems: 0, // 0 for unlimited
		ignoreOldItems: false,
		ignoreOlderThan: 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // 1 day
		removeStartTags: "",
		removeEndTags: "",
		startTags: [],
		endTags: [],
		prohibitedWords: []
	},

	// Define required scripts.
	getScripts: function() {
		return ["moment.js"];
	},

Any idea why its stuck on loading?

@goncalovsc Is that your full newsfeed.js file? That is definitely not the complete file. Suggest running git checkout ~/MagicMirror/modules/newsfeed.js in Terminal.

Best practice is to not edit your module files (e.g. newsfeed.js). Instead, override the defaults with your own settings in config/config.js.

Thanks for the help, it was an “http://” that was missing :p
But Now i have the se=ame problem that you had, a lot of "?"appears in special caracthers like “ç”, “ó”, etc.
Any solution?

I discovered now how to fix, just changed the encoding in both files and its working
