YouTube???

What is the deal with YouTube? I can not get videos to play through HTTP proxy. If I white list the domain AND add it to "skip authentication for domains..." list, it will work from only ONE computer on the network, and that computer has no special packet filter rules associated with it. With no proxy they videos play fine.

Proxy is in standard mode. Network is NAT.

Looks like whitelist "youtube.com" may have fixed the issue. I removed it from the auth list and seems to be working.

Okay, this is getting wierd, now Youtube is not working again. Also if I try this in FireFox I can see down in the lower left corner of the browser where it usaully says tranfering data etc, it is saying "transferring data from downloader.fw-notify.net..." So I am assuming behind the scenes it is trying to load the blocked by Astaro messafe but it can't??

I have the same issue. I added youtube.com and fw-notify.net to the whitelist and it still won't work. The only way I can get this to work is to temporarily diable the http cache. Anyone know how we can resolve this problem?

What I did to fix this was to add the following to the Content Scanning URl whitelist...

\.mov
\.flv
\.swf

wasn't sure which ext to whielist so did all three of the above. This is caused (i think) by the content scanning engine trying to scan a stream by downloading it first which is obviously not going to work...

good luck

What about Google Video? I just get "Buffering..." and it never plays. If I disable the http proxy, it plays fine. I tried whitelisting \.gvp but that didn't help. Anyone know how to get this to work. Here's a sample video that does not work for me:

Hello,

You may wish to reference this Astaro Knowledgebase document, Article # 211385, which explains how to add regular expressions into your WhiteList
to allow for streaming.

Hope this helps.

First off, you are going to have to whitelist Youtube since it's categorized as Pornography.

Second, you will have to add .flv extentions to your whitelist for the Youtube movies.

Hope this helps.
