            Bug ID: 383381
           Summary: Getting the feed URL from a youtube channel no longer
                    works
           Product: akregator
           Version: 5.5.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: feed parser
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kdebugs at fratti.ch
  Target Milestone: ---

When given a regular web page URL, akregator will fetch the RSS/atom feed url
from it based on its headers. However, on YouTube, this no longer works,
because YouTube believes that Akregator is a mobile client and redirects it to
m.youtube.com, which in turn confuses Akregator and makes it unable to add the
feed url.

Searching the feed url in the webpage source and adding that manually works as
a workaround.

Example URL: https://www.youtube.com/user/bigclivedotcom/videos
Akregator will try to add the feed
https://m.youtube.com/user/bigclivedotcom/videos
Akregator should add the feed
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=UCtM5z2gkrGRuWd0JQMx76qA
