Added support for European Netflix servers

Open mindrunner opened this issue 10 years ago • 9 comments

I set up a Netflix DNS unblocker in Germany. Working fine so far with this changeset. I suppose, other European countries will be fine, too. Though, cannot test that!

Have to mention that Login and Streaming is NOT working on Android devices. Everything else should be fine. Even Chromecast+Android is working (After you managed to login to netflix on your Android device)

I'm of the opinion that one should proxy the entire *.netflix.com domain, but I don't know how or if HAProxy can do that. Dnsmasq can, because I do it at home, but then some domains fail on the HAProxy side.

This would very likely solve most issues.

This might result in receiving the stream through the Proxy as well, which is not really the best option

Aren't the streams usually passed through a CDN which isn't in the company's domain?

Possible, yes! But I am not sure about that.

As a beginner that tried to find out all the european netflix entries himself a while ago, I was wondering how did you manage to find all of them?

edit: und weißt du welchen Eintrag man für youtube adden muss? Da ich live streams gerne auf meinem Chromecast abspielen würde, finde nur leider kein informationen dazu da es anscheinend nur in Deutschland geblockt ist.

You can capture/visualize your network traffic with capture tools, such as wireshark. This can help you finding the hosts your devices is connecting to.

I don't know anything about youtube unblocking for chromecast. I have never tried it. Anyhow, this is off topic here and should be discussed somewhere else.

Cheers
