RSS Feeds: Automatic updating
 

Isn't this meant to be done automatically? It doesn't update unless I do it manually. Why is this?

Have you checked if the Scheduled Task is running?

It looks like it is. How do I set it to make updates hourly? I never really have played around with it.

The check box next to it in the list has to be marked if you want it to run automatically. The time interval is right there in the Admin CP when you edit the feed.
