This specific podcast URL causes amarok to fail when trying to update the feed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add podcast URL http://feeds2.feedburner.com/hak5hd 2. Right click the podcast, select configure, and the URL: says "http%3A%2F%2Frevision3.com%2Fhak5%2Ffeed%2Fmp4-hd30" Actual Results: When trying to update the podcast: couldn't create slave: "Unable to create io-slave: klauncher said: Unknown protocol ''. Expected Results: The URL of the podcast should be: http://revision3.com/hak5/feed/mp4-hd30 and not: http%3A%2F%2Frevision3.com%2Fhak5%2Ffeed%2Fmp4-hd30 This would prevent klauncher from failing when updating feed.
Comment from GCI student: I'm using Amarok 2.8.0 and Ubuntu 14.10 with KDE 4.14.2 The url I have is : http%3A%2F%2Frevision3.com%2Fhak5%2Ffeed%2Fmp4-hd30
