hi,

Today while studing Py-Cineveristy Rss plugin, I found this bug:

Updating... http://www.maxon.net/index.php?id=1164&type=100&L=0
The Last Cause - SciFi Melodrama with Anime Influence Looking for Sponsors
After Effects CS 5.5 and CINEMA 4D R12 - Always a Dynamic Duo

Traceback (most recent call last) :
File "CVRss.pyp", line 155, in Timer
  File "CVRss.pyp", line 170, in ScrollRss
  File "<string>", line 9, in write
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u''' in position 0: ordinal not in range(128)

in xml we have <title>'Inspired Visions' Rendering Competition</title>

So I made some adjustment:
->replace line 169: title = unicode(self.rss_items[self.current_item]['title'])
with this:
title= self.rss_items[self.current_item]['title']
title = title.encode('ascii', 'ignore')

Hope this usefull.
