Curious to know what magic you did, preferably by email, in case provider A reads here ;)

If you check your server logs, you will notice someone from the USA using it :)

The issue was MrMC was doing a HEAD request for mime-type, which failed, followed immediately by request for the content. The content 502'ed and failed. Strangely it worked fine when stepping through the code.

The fix was to pull in https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/9504, which has a side effect of moving the mime-type request much earlier.

So something about fast back-to-back requests to the proxy server. Maybe some sort of DDOS protection ?

odd, I just took those xxx.strm files you emailed, put them on my NAS and browse and click on one.
