this is a tool using yahoo pipes to run a regular expression on the title to
filter any rss feed:
pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=eda97a87bfbac0c5ed4d687edc2957e2
it will generate an rss link that can be used by a bittorrent client, and is
easy to share. this provides the full (according to yahoo) features
of regular expressions, and outputs a url that anyone can copy+paste into their
rss subscriptions.
there are other good aggregators, but this is simple and flexible, maybe
someone else will like it. for me the advantage is that it is easy to make a url
that can be sent to friends easily, who might not know how to properly configure
their rss filters.
for example to filter all bsg xvid releases could be done with-
feed: mininova.org/rss.xml?user=eztv
regex: battlestar.galactica.+[xx][vv][ii][dd]
after entering this, a custom rss is generated:
pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?regexpermit=battlestar.galactica.%2b[xx][vv][ii][dd]&sourcefeed=mininova.org%2frss.xml%3fuser%3deztv&_id=eda97a87bfbac0c5ed4d687edc2957e2&_render=rss
someone can now subscribe to these releases using that url, instead of having to
enter filter info themselves 🙂
edit- here is a simpler query for all xvid encodes, which always has at least a
few items:
pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?regexpermit=[xx][vv][ii][dd]&sourcefeed=mininova.org%2frss.xml%3fuser%3deztv&_id=eda97a87bfbac0c5ed4d687edc2957e2&_render=rss
