Old YouTube videos mistaken for updates #209

Before you start.

Describe the bug Yesterday, the feed was in sync with the channel. Today, this is how it looks:

Screenshot_20210311_093541

Above the latest video, a bunch of older videos have shown up. They are completely out of order, and were not released 3 ~ 5 hours ago but a few months ago.

I'm afraid there's not much I can do about this at the moment - YouTube's feeds can be flaky. When I fetch that feed right now, I show the videos in the correct order. But a single hiccup can throw everything off. I will see if I can find an improved API for this.

Thank you for letting me know!

I am subscribing to this issue because youtube playlists is what interest me the most, haha. I understand your suffering, every API google related is a pain to work with, doesn't make any sense and changes often.

@danielo515 Can you give me an example of some YouTube playlists you subscribe to? Maybe if I dig in some more, I can improve them for you.

Sure, here you have one: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL--PgETgAz5FGoatB9KQzbnpv0bgZqU2l

however, I checked it today and now it seems to work properly.

This is one example video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf2OYW5ocy8&list=PL--PgETgAz5FGoatB9KQzbnpv0bgZqU2l

It is from 2019, but fraidycat is reporting to be from 7 days ago
