Have you found a way to subscribe to youtube channels and view the video embedded insite ttrss? The official youtube feeds appear to be empty or just contain a URL to the video.

Yes, I'm using the https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNELI... format with af_youtube_embed enabled and it is just showing blank entries on the newest version of ttrs & plugins. Looks like my installation is bugged then, but I don't have the time to investigate at the moment.
No, I just click on them or run them in mpv. I've thought about writing a plugin for TTRss where you can give it a channel name and it will add the RSS feed, plus store the channel's icon instead of the YouTube icon, but I haven't gotten around to looking at that (or seeing if there's a plugin that already does some or all of that).
You can always just use youtube-dl and sync local copies of the channel
