Hello, I am a student from the ANU and am hoping I can create a PR for this issue. Could you assign this issue to me! thank you :)

Thanks for putting me on the issue.

@opusforlife2 is there any more additional documentation on kiosks. I assumed that to solve this issue I would just need to initiate a new kiosk which then accpeted a filtered feed. But that doesn't seem to be the case, as kiosks haven't been implimented the way the graphic in issue #1805 showed.

@CaptSzat here is some guidance:

• The kiosk code you need to change is not in this repository but rather in NewPipeExtractor
• You should create a public class YoutubeMusicTrendingExtractor extends KioskExtractor<StreamInfoItem> { and implement the data extraction there (see for example the already-implemented YoutubeTrendingExtractor)
• In the YoutubeService's getKioskList you should return two kiosks instead of only one (see for example how Bandcamp is able to provide multiple kiosks)
• Make sure the data extractor works well and the tests you wrote for your newly implemented KioskExtractor pass (see e.g. YoutubeTrendingKioskInfoTest)
• You can now switch over to the NewPipe repository and tell app/build.gradle to use your NewPipeExtractor version
• Make sure the trending screen you added works properly in the app and use a Material icon related to music to show for the kiosk entry

@Stypox Thank you for the help! I've managed to setup everything to get the Trending Muisc kiosk working. The only issue now is that there is no clear way on the YT site to get the trending music. For example to get the trending feed you just use /feed/trending but for music unfortunately I have been unable to find a similar link. I have tried /feed/music, /feed/trending/music and /music. All of which either provide just the trending page which is the fall back if you do /feed or throw errors in the project becasue the music page is not deisgned to be parsed. I think that the solution to getting the trenidng music feed is prehaps above my current understanding of the project. If its fine with maintainers (@opusforlife2 ) I might do a PR with a partial solution for this issue. Then if someone else is able to find a way to access the music trending feed the two solutions can be combined.

The current solution I have come up with adds the YoutubeMusicTrendingExtractor, YouTubeMusicTrendingLinkHandlerFactory. It also modifies the YoutubeService file. I also made sure to add an icon in the NewPipe files.

Lol, I'm not a maintainer. I'm just customer care. If you wanna get your PRs approved you have to talk to my boss Stypox.
