  • Hi Claus, 

    i have just downloaded zattoo 3.0.8 beta and tried it out and it worked, i can view MTV, DSF and others without a problem.

    I have single scan AV, block Spyware and have 'Bypass content scanning for streaming content' enabled. I use a german Visa Ultimate as the OS for Zatoo.
    How does your config look like?

    Is there a special channel that does not work?

    Thanks

  • Hi Gert,

    my setup looks like yours. It is a really simple setup with no paketfilter rules, no ips, no vpn, no content filter...

    Zattoo Client 3.0.8 beta on XPSP2

    And I got still these blocked messages:

    I think this error is the main cause of the problem. To determine whether the proxy is guilty or not, is it is possible that you capture the connection with tcpdump like this, and send the dumpfile to sschnelle@astaro.com?:

    tcpdump -pni any port 8080 -s0 -w http.pcap

    Thanks,

    Sven.
  • Reproduced this issue here, seems like the proxy is guilty. Will be fixed soon.

    The 'cannot convert filename to UTF8...' error message is just a red herring - The server delivers an invalid charset, but this has no impact in this case.

    Thanks,

    Sven.
