RSS feed not working due to apostrophe, illegal character?

Post by rorschach1234 »

Hello,
I created an RSS feed in Newzbin.com for the TV show 10 O'Clock Live.

The only thing is, once I'd saved the feed into SABnzdb+ I couldn't enable, amend or delete the feed, although all other feeds operate normally and without problems.
Having already perused the forums, I'm led to believe that the apostrophe character might be the offending item causing the feed to fail.

Could you confirm this for me please, and is there any way to remove the feed altogether by another method (the .ini file?) so I can put another one in?

Many thanks in advance,
ror



Version: 0.5.6 Final
OS: OSX Snow Leopard
Install-type: OSx .app
Skin (if applicable): Smpl white
Firewall Software: none
Are you using IPV6? no
Is the issue reproducible? probably, I haven't tried!

SMPL contains a bug.
You can remove the feed using the other skins.
Or by directly editing the sabnzbd.ini file.

I wouldn't call it a fix.
