I would like to ask why this feed cannot be parsed by tt-rss:
https://ocw.mit.edu/rss/new/mit-newcourses.xml
If I check it with https://fakecake.org/myfeedsucks/ I get the following first lines:
Code: Select all
00006000
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet title="XSL_formatting" type="text/xsl" href="../../styles/rss.xsl"?>
<rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"
xmlns="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/"

xmlns:enc="http://purl.oclc.org/net/rss_2.0/enc#"
xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/">
<channel rdf:about="https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/">
...
So there is this strange first line (00006000). I do not see it if I download the feed with curl or wget (or Firefox).
I have already contacted the administrators of the site and they seem really helpful, so if somebody could hint what the problem is, they will certainly try to fix it.
Thank you for your help.
