Chromecast unable to handle CORS headers correctly with http redirects #429

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Load this Smoothstreaming VOD URL in chromecast:  
http://ys1-ssvod.ds.cdns.yousee.tv/Content/SS/VOD/TO_0026_R/Manifest.ism/Manifes
t

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected smooth playback, but instead it fails due to an issue with CORS 
headers.
The server respond with a '302' Moved Temporarily (containing CORS 
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *). When Chromecast requests the new location URL, 
Origin is set to null, whereas it should have been (http://cloud.yousee.tv). I 
guess we are not the only one using redirects, so this must be a general issue 
unless we are doing something wrong.

As per the the redirect steps found here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/#redirect-steps
Please make sure your request URL origin is the same as the original URL 
origin, otherwise your Origin will be set to null, as you see in your issue.
