Question: RSSMix useless?

[dataarchivist]

I didnt try if AB can do it by itself, but for now, I use http://rssmix.com/ to merge my rss feeds into one to cronjob a lot of websites at once. Its fully free btw.
If its not already possible to catch them easily via txt file or something else, it would be nice to have.

Archivebox never re-downloads urls that have been already archived, so you can already pipe in all your RSS feeds without merging / deduplicating them first, so this isn't needed.

Is an option to redownload a site again planned?

Yes, see #179

But its does for rss feeds.
So, if you merge the feeds, you normaly get every x hour an fresh rss with new links.

But its does for rss feeds.

It downloads the feed itself, but it doesn't re-download the pages within it after the first time.

A normal feed didnt have the same link a second time. ;)
Anyway, I did this with another cron, it was just interesting to know.
