What happened?
In rare mystery cases something (e.g. some albums) works in other web clients, but not in Iris. In these cases the Base64 encoded URL part in Iris contains / character.
The issue can be reproduced using Mopidy-Podcast and pointing its browse_root setting to a local file with this content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<opml>
<body>
<outline text="Test" type="rss" xmlUrl="https://anchor.fm/s/8426140/podcast/rss?a=12345" />
</body>
</opml>
It is possible to browse Podcasts - Test in other web clients (e.g. Mopidy-MusicBox-Webclient) but not in Iris.
I think I have also seen this issue occurring with rare playlists or albums from other backends, but I am not sure whether it was the same issue or something else (as I didn't investigate back then).
