# Code moved to FreshRSS repository
The code is not maintained here any longer, but moved to the offical FreshRSS Extension directory:
https://github.com/FreshRSS/Extensions
# FreshRSS - YouTube video extension
This FreshRSS extension allows you to directly watch YouTube/PeerTube videos from within subscribed channel feeds.
To use it, upload the ```xExtension-YouTube``` directory to the FreshRSS `./extensions` directory on your server and enable it on the extension panel in FreshRSS.
## Installation
The first step is to put the extension into your FreshRSS extension directory:
```
cd /var/www/FreshRSS/extensions/
wget https://github.com/kevinpapst/freshrss-youtube/archive/master.zip
unzip master.zip
mv freshrss-youtube-master/xExtension-YouTube .
rm -rf freshrss-youtube-master/
```
Then switch to your browser https://localhost/FreshRSS/p/i/?c=extension and activate it.
# Features
- Embeds Youtube videos directly in FreshRSS, instead of linking to the Youtube page
- Simplifies the subscription to channel URLs by automatically detecting the channels feed URL
You can simply add Youtube video subscriptions by pasting URLs like:
- `https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwbjxO5qQTMkSZVueqKwxuw`
- `https://www.youtube.com/user/AndrewTrials`
