The site I was having trouble with was video.foxnews.com. The page loads but the actual video hangs with "spinning wheel of death". I took Amos suggestion and added deny via, request-x-forward and that fixed the issue but I was trying to create the anonymous proxy paranoid setup initially, and Amos suggestion won't achieve that.

Can you be more specific?
“Not working” can depend on couple things and on the nature of the
streaming system.
I know that many streaming sites do work under transparent squid so it’s
not really well understood what is not working from the spectrum of options.
Can you give examples for streaming sites that do work and others that do
not?
The first that pops in my mind to test it would be:
https://www.youtube.com/
https://www.crunchyroll.com/
https://rutube.ru/
And many others that are mentioned at:
http://www.unveiltech.com/indexsquidvideobooster.php (under Smart Cache)
And take Amos suggestion about restricting the headers more selectively.
Depends on your system policy you would be able to find that for most sites
you won’t have any issues letting any headers pass but for selective sites
you would want to take another policy that would be to block in general and
leaving aside the specific headers “allowed” approach.
Also, have you tried to disable the virus scan to verify if it’s the
culprit for the streaming issue?
Please give one example so I and maybe others would be able to grasp the
issue in some way.
Thanks,
Eliezer

Subject: squid.conf blocking live video stream
Sorry if this shows up twice on the mailing list...
I've setup a transparent proxy squid v3.5.22 on a x86_64 Arch Linux server.
The transparent proxy is working fine for web page caching but live video
isn't getting through. I thought it was a netfilter issue but bypassing the
proxy fixes this issue.
