Hi,
the preview video here doesn't start, only the ads starts, then black screen appears. Then i don't have the choice, the play button appears and itplays the ads again and again : http://www.cbsnews.com/news/heroin-in-the-heartland-60-minutes/. Tested with squid 3.4.8 and 3.5.10If i use a direct access without the proxy with the same computer, the preview video begins (length 45 sec)
The videos listed here works very well with squid : http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/
