[gandhar]

i get the same error, on android 4.3.

[CoolSLind]

ARTICLES_LIMIT in the RssHandler Class seems to be set to 15, while the feed contains 50+ articles. This generates a SAXException which returns null instead of the article list from the parsing. A fix would be to set ARTICLES_LIMIT higher than the number of articles in the rss-feed or return the article list if a SAXException is called in the RssService class. Preferably a subclass to SAXException to be sure that it is a wanted exception.

[sebastianroming]

Any solution for this? I get the same error. (increase of RssHandler.ARTICLES_LIMIT does not work).

Update:
I could determine that the Encoding of the Feed is the problem. If the XML declaration is "ISO-8859-1", but the file itself is encoded as UTF-8, you get the same error. Will investigate.

Anything new with this issue? I have the same problem at the moment.

Cheers

I chaged article_limits from 15 to 999 and it works!

[tekwe]

I changed article_limits to 999 but the app still shut down. Any other suggestion?
