For me if it works but not correctly like this, it clearly indicates there is a (possibly minor) incompatibility between the client and the server. It just happens that if your client doesn't support https, it was never tested against this server and very likely needs to be adapted to work correctly. > Is it possible in haproxy to manipulate the playlist file (server > response), that only the last .ts-entries will be available and returned > to xupnpd2? No, haproxy doesn't manipulate contents. Not only it's completely out of the scope of a load balancing proxy, but it would also encourage some users to try to work around some of their deployment issues in the ugliest possible way, causing even more trouble (and frankly, on *every* infrastructure where you find such horrible tricks deployed, the admins implore you to help them because they're in big trouble and are stuck with no option left to fix the issues they've created). If it's only a matter of modifying one file on the fly, you may manage to do it using Lua : instead of forwarding the request to the server, you send it to a Lua function, which itself makes the request to the server, buffers the response, rewrites it, then sends it back to the client. You must just make sure to only send there the requests for the playlist file and nothing else. I personally think this is ugly compared to trying to fix the faulty client. Maybe you can report your issue to the author(s) and share your config to help them reproduce it ? Regards, Willy
