A question about RSS

[hararilior]

Hello,

I have just figured out how to work the RSS feed and it works fine.

However one particular torrent didn't start downloading automaticlly and I had to go the feed list, right click and choose download.

Prior to that I thought it might be that the filter is set up wrong so I tried adding up * and ? whereever I deemed right and it still didn't work (or at least not immediatly).

So my questions:

A. What went wrong? could it be that the filter was fine and I just had to wait?

B. Now that I've "jump started it" would it keep downloding automaticly whenever a relevent file is available?

Thanks,

Lior

Depends if the filter is set correctly. When you press "?" in the RSS dialog what shows up?

What is the MATCH / not-MATCH filter you made?

Hi,

All of my filters are set up on "match always".

In the "filter" line under "filter settings", I wrote down the name of the file I want, my understanding from my DOS days is that ? can replace any one charecter and that * can replace any string, so I just stuck those in between the words composing the expression like so:

*my*favorite*show*

and before that I tries

*my?favorite?show*

Thanks for your trouble

It's also in the manual available from F1

That should work... what doesn't? DID you check the ? button.

ohh,

sorry it took me a while to get what you mean by the "? button", (me no speak good english )

When I hit the ? button it says, last matched episode ### , matching releases none.

That's for the one I jump started, some others say last matched episode: N/A

So what does that mean?

Apologies all around don't worry.

As far as the "no matches", it means for whatever reason the filter does not work on the current feed contents. I'd recommend trying again this time from a specialty site for the content you want.. it sounds like http://tvrss.net fits that bill. Please check it out as well as their search-based RSS feeds to see if it's the filter or the feed which is the problem.
