> Media RSS (MRSS) is an RSS extension that adds several enhancements to RSS enclosures, and is used for syndicating multimedia files (audio, video, image) in RSS feeds. [1] [2]

Youtube also uses this extension in it's atom feeds:
Example feed:
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCF3I1gf7GcbmAb0mR6vxkZQ

Currently media elements get simply ignored and therefore the above feed only
contains empty articles.
It would be nice if the thumbnail and description were visible.
