Hi, In my setup, I am streaming live television from a streaming service in the Netherlands through Squid deployed on a Ubuntu server in the Netherlands to a Windows machine in Japan. I am the one and only user of the Squid server. I view .wmv stream in Explorer using Windows Media Player. The connection speed is excellent (I tested this with downloading files from various servers in Explorer). Still, after about one minute of perfect play, the image keeps rebuffering and the image freezes. I tried many things, but I just cannot get it to work properly. In the Squid log-file, it I get the following entries from the start until before the end of the stream: 1252558617.468 80 202.223.121.120 TCP_MISS/200 375 GET http://streams.kpn.net/cgi-bin/reflector.cgi? - DIRECT/213.75.10.25 video/x-ms-asf 1252558618.226 128 202.223.121.120 TCP_MISS/200 8068 GET http://213.75.12.48/ecv_live/22434_1252096281.wmv - DIRECT/213.75.12.48 application/vnd.ms.wms-hdr. asfv1 1252558715.247 6 202.223.121.120 TCP_MISS/200 208 POST http://213.75.12.48/ecv_live/22434_1252096281.wmv - DIRECT/213.75.12.48 - 1252558749.063 7 202.223.121.120 TCP_MISS/200 208 POST http://213.75.12.48/ecv_live/22434_1252096281.wmv - DIRECT/213.75.12.48 - 1252558987.624 185546 202.223.121.120 TCP_MISS/200 18111884 GET http://213.75.12.48/ecv_live/22434_1252096281.wmv - DIRECT/213.75.12.48 application/x-mms-framed Is there anything I can do to fix this? What can I try more to get this to work properly? Below this email my Squid configuration. To improve performance, I tried to switch off caching and increase the read_ahead_gap. I hope I did it correctly. Though, it did not help unfortunately. Thank you!
