RSS feed length

The rss importer seems to be limited to a length of 15 articles. Is there any way around this or possibly an alternative patch?

Reading emails with QC?

incubo's picture

Has anyone come up with a simple way to access emails with QC? I have been scratching my head with this for a while. Easy way is to use external service provider, such as mmmmail.com to build RSS feed from emails. The problem with mmmmail.com seems to be that they don't support Scandic characters (Ä, Ö, Å) and by not supporting I mean that if a Scandic character appears in a mail, it erases every letter after that (so that simple find and replace won't help).

This is a simple patch (here is it adapted for use inside VDMX..so you'll have to unpublish some of the inputs) that just allows you to enter a search term and it will then grab the rssfeed of that search term from Twitter and display what is coming through the feed.

It just uses the standard RSS feed template otherwise, but it's a fun patch to use if you're doing an event that is using a common #hashtag because people could see their tweets being displayed live.

Twithead - Run 1. Twitter Realtime Animation from George Toledo on Vimeo.

This is something I put together that uses the Kineme3D, with facial expression triggered by sound created by feeding a string generated by an rss feed to a speech synthesis patch, as well as "tweet" number.

rss to .mov

Hello, I'm new to quartz.

I'm looking to take an RSS feed to make a scrolling .mov file that I can air on public access.

Are you guys and gals geeky enough to hack a solution? Thanks! ~:-)
