Actually I think i just found out the answer:
"Apple Podcasts is not doing video via RSS. You still need an RSS feed to publish a show but once you’ve published the audio, your podcast hosting provider needs to separately send an HLS playlist URL for that episode to Apple Podcasts, which it does using a special API that the podcast hosting provider has access to."
