Using iTX with the RSS Streamer
Using iTX with the RSS Streamer
The RSS Streamer is an optional iTX service. It enables iTX to capture an RSS feed (containing
information such as news headlines) from a website and save the text of the feed in an output
file. An operator can include the text from the output file in a CG.
The service runs under the Server Controller, but does not connect to any other iTX service. You
may install it on any machine that has internet access.
Installing the RSS Streamer module
1. Double-click Setup.exe in the installation folder, iTX Suite, to start the installer.
The installer displays the iTX Installer dialog.
2. Click Select Software to open the Select Software to Install dialog.
3. Expand the Utilities category and select RSS Streamer.
Click OK to close the Select Software to Install dialog.
The iTX Installer dialog shows the components in the selected module.
4. Click Continue.
The installer performs the installation. In doing so, it places a configuration file in a folder
with the program executable. The default path of the folder is:
C:/Program Files/iTX 2.0/Services/RSS Streamer
The program configuration file is called "RssFeeds.txt".
5. Click Finish to close the iTX Installer dialog.
Starting the RSS Streamer
Starting the Server Controller on the same machine automatically starts the RSS Streamer.
