I have a new build that will give us more logging, because I can't reproduce the problem. For some reason when you load the youtube website, it is not finding the RSS link for you, but it does for me. If I send you the new logging build can you upload new logs?

Yes please.

Stupid question...

I do not have Youtub Premium. Could it be, that this is the reason why on my computer the RSS-Link doesn't work?

Unfortunately that was a bot and scraped the info from the knowledge base or elsewhere on the forum.
That feed would only work for that one channel and is no use if you cannot find the RSS feed for other channels.

The youtube-dl engine should convert a channel name to the RSS feed but for some reason this is not working for me either.
Since it is working for Subjunk and others I think it could be something Youtube has done depending on the region.

Did you get the test build from Subjunk?

Sorry for taking a long time to get back with the test build, I meant to build it sooner. I will send it to you in a private message in a few minutes, it is building now
