Media-RSS support #530

Description

@azmeuk

Some video platform like Youtube or Peertube use the Media-RSS extension to provide metadata about the videos. They generally do not use the whole tags available, but provide tags for the video description, the thumbnail, and the number of views.

It would be amazing if Flym could at least display the thumbnail and the description for videos.

An extract of a Youtube feed:

   <media:title>Can You Observe a Typical Universe?</media:title>
   <media:content url="https://www.youtube.com/v/q-6oU3jXAho?version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="640" height="390"/>

The moment you started observing reality, you hopelessly polluted any conclusions you might make about it. The anthropic principle guarantees that you are NOT seeing the universe in most typical state. But used correctly, this highly controversial idea can be extremely powerful. So, how do you correctly use the anthropic principle?
