There is a distinction between plain Atom URL and podcast Atom feed URL. Plain RSS / ATOM URLs: ----------------------
These feed URLs are supposed to be used by feed readers ( like browsers and feed reader apps ), to notify when the feed author publishes a new HTML article. They don't contain any audio/video links, so they have nothing to do with Rhythmbox. Podcast RSS / ATOM URLs: ------------------------ These atom / rss feed URLs are specifically for podcasts. They are exactly similar to the above atom / rss links, but contain audio/video links to episodes. Those are the feed URLs which rhythmbox supports. E.g. the valid Atom feed url for the above podcast would be: http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheCoolestThingAboutLove Good news: ---------- But, you don't always need to play around URLs to subscribe to podcasts. Most probably the author has submitted his feed to a popular podcast directory like: Apple podcasts / Google podcasts / Spotify. Rhythmbox uses "Apple podcasts" for searching podcasts. So, search for "coolest thing" in rhythmbox by clicking on "Podcasts" -> "Add" button should fetch the results, rather than playing around with URLs. ** Changed in: rhythmbox (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1258367 Title: Atom feed is not readable in Rhythmbox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/rhythmbox/+bug/1258367/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
