Request: Provide way to disable CORS requirement during testing #177

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

bonus points: allow it to be disabled permanently for a specific player.

I don't understand why there is a requirement to only play from sources which 
are cors enabled - the android/ios device player will merrily play HLS content 
from any unverified source on the web. Why should a chromecast player be 
different?

That is part of the HTML5 Security standards, so it doesn't apply to 
Android/iOS since they are not web-based platforms. I imagine you want that 
disabled during "development" and not "testing", since test should include 
that. Anyhow, folks set up their own proxies while doing development, etc but 
in production, you do not want to use any proxy, instead want to address the 
issue at the CDN end, etc.
