URLs are just public identifiers to access the YouTube APIs. At the HTTP level they result in a quite long series of sub-requests, redirections and the like bouncing all over the youtube.* and googlevideos.* and googleapis.* domains. Yes all of them are involved multiple times. So whitelisting is an all-or-nothing prospect, with other G services being implicitly whitelisted as side effects. >Also, whenever the way to decipher the above maze of traffic gets published so we can do things like what you ask. YT shortly afterwards change how it operates - usually towards even more complexity. This has happened too many times to be coincidence IMO. >Amos _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
