Bug update: Live video stream works when you visit Al Jazeera English the first time after deleting Internet history/cache. But once you click “reload this page”, the live video stream stops working.

The live stream seems to be fine here. You don’t mention any security applications in your post, if you’re using any, could you post details of version numbers/settings etc. Also, please tell us the settings you’re using in Dragon.

Seems to be working here. Do you have referrer logging disabled? If so try enabling it.

How does one enable referrer logging?

The setting is called Do not allow websites to know where you came from (suppress HTTP referrer header).

I’d also suggest trying with Comodo DNS disabled.

It’s unchecked.

Unfortunately, I’m still unable to reproduce. Could this be something to do with Bitdefender?
