Advanced options

This page controls advanced features of Awasu.

• Auto-detect an Internet connection
  Suspends all channel updates and other Internet activity if your computer is not online.
• Delay before updating channels
  Awasu will wait before starting to update channels, either after the program has just started or after a system resume.

  This is useful for systems where there is a delay before the Internet connection is ready to be used e.g. because an IP address needs to be assigned.
• Proxy authentication
  Click here to set proxy authentication details.

• Allow feed URL's to be updated automatically by the publisher
  Publishers may notify feed readers that their feed has moved to a new address. Tick this box to allow Awasu to update your channels with the new URL.

  It is possible for improperly-configured networks (typically wi-fi networks that require you to log on before you can access the net) to cause your feed URL's become scrambled. Awasu will warn you if this appears to be happening and lets you revert them back to their original URL's.
• Enable auto-discovery
  Lets you know if Awasu finds any feeds being announced by web sites as you browse.
  
  
• Plugin port
  The HTTP port that Awasu will use to communicate with plugins [1].

  You should only change this value if it is conflicting with another application.
• Script timeout
  Specifies the maximum amount of time external scripts and programs will be allowed to run for.

• Safe feed content
  Click here to control how Awasu ensures your feed content is safe before showing it to you.
• Metadata modules
  Click here to control which metadata modules should be processed when updating feeds.
