Hello, I'm now usually able to solve browsing issues caused by Privoxy by myself, but this time I'm really stuck. Privoxy when “Set to Medium” is able to view the video. When “Set to Advanced”, Privoxy shows me a blank page. So, what I did is prefixing one by one potentially problematic actions from the above “Advanced” setup with the minus sign in my “user.action” file, in an attempt to resolve the issue. More precisely : -filter, -crunch-if-none-match, -hide-if-modified-since{-60}, -overwirte-last-modified{randomize}, -fast-redirects{check-decoded-url}

Unfortunately, this logical way of debugging—at least, for me—didn't help. So, there's still something hidden in the “Advanced” setup of Privoxy that prevents me from watching the video.

For you to test, here's the link to watch the video:

---link ends---

Thank you for your help.

    Please reproduce the problem with the debug settings described at:
    http://www.privoxy.org/user-manual/contact.html
    and provide a log excerpt.

    It's possible that you didn't disable the problematic actions for all the URLs that matter.

    Thank you Fabian for your answer. Please, see attached log. Not huge and very specific to my issue. Thank you.

    The log shows that various filters (including a non-default filter 'TopAdAnnoyance-Killer') are enabled and modify the requested pages.

    Are you sure you disabled filtering? You could check the URLs in the log with:
    http://config.privoxy.org/show-url-info
