Adding Web feeds

Set up your frame to view RSS (Really Simple Syndication) photo feeds directly from FLICKR, FRAMECHANNEL, and other favorite sites.

IMPORTANT: Your frame can play only feeds that contain photos. An error message appears when you try to play feeds that are text only. Make sure you preview your feeds after they are added to the Device Settings page. You can edit or delete them there. See Previewing, editing, and deleting feeds.


NOTE: Preloaded and new feeds are added to the feeds list under the sites' tabs on the Device Settings Web page, where you can preview, edit, or delete them, see Previewing, editing, and deleting feeds. They appear also in the Web media list on your frame's Home screen where you can play them, see Viewing the Home screen.
