Right! What I was going to do, was to include all rss feed stuff into one generic plugin (video and audio podcast and tv podcast), but never completed that task. Sorry! I stopped the work when I ran into problems, because of background threads. Maybe I can try to find some time to go back to that work, now after kaa.notifer is fully included in freevo1.8... But anyway, I used feedparser.py (from utils or kaa) for the rss parsing, which worked very well! It gives you the content of the feed in a kind of dictionary and works with many different kinds of rss and atom feeds.
