YouTube Podcast Not Found (HTTP 500 Error)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Find any YouTube Channel ID 
2. Generate Podcast URL
3. Paste the URL in either browser window or Podcast app. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

HTTP ERROR: 500

Problem accessing /video.mp4. Reason:

    /watch:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Couldn't find URL map.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

RSSHandler-3.0.1.19
Mac OS 10.10.1


Please provide any additional information below.

Tried downgrading Java versions and changing formats. Both had the same outcome.

The issue is, in file /RSSHandler/src/com/rsshandler/servlets/VideoServlet.java

line 
private static final String YOUTUBE_URL = "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=";

should have HTTPS instead of HTTP.

I compiled my own version and it works fine for me. Compiled version attached.
No guarantees it will work for you, I can not help you if you have issues with 
this version

This worked GREAT! Thank you sir. Anyone else having this problem on mac go to 
the app, right or cntrl+click, show package contents, go in the folder order 
Contents/Resources/Java and replace RSSHandler-3.0.1.19.jar with the file 
attached to this thread. RSSHandler-3.0.1.19.M2.jar. Make sure it is renamed to 
the exact same file in the Java folder RSSHandler-3.0.1.19.jar. Once the app is 
launched with that file replaced all links back to working again. Bravo sir.

Will this work for Windows as well?

I had removed my feed thinking re-adding it may fix something. I tried this jar 
file but it just re-adds the feed as "playistid on Youtube" and never finds any 
details and or actual files.

It appears the problem has came back again less than 24 hours after the 
Facebook-Instagram crash. (Not sure if that means anything.) I'm getting the 
exact same error I had before. Any ideas on what's going on???

[GoogleCodeExporter]

found it.

first followed advise to change 

private static final String YOUTUBE_URL = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=";

then

removed space character the search string and ended up with

final String TAG_NAME = "\"url_encoded_fmt_stream_map\":\"";

oh yeah, and this build handles 50+ playlists :D (man its been years)
