Proxy not used in play list items but only on Android (TV), works as expected on Windows #416

I use an HTTP proxy on Kodi. On Kodi 16.1 on WIndows 10, it works as expected. I monitor the proxy logs and see Kodi requesting the m3u file and individual video files through the proxy.

On Kodi 16.1 and SPMC 16.4-1 on Android TV, I only see the initial m3u request but not the subsequent requests. The video still plays so it's just going through the default connection and not the proxy.

This also seems to be true when downloading subtitles.

Kodi requesting the m3u file and individual video files

That's thru an addon, right?

Should work, afaict. Needs more info on what is going thru the proxy and what not, in details, to proceed further

I was trying to stream out of an SFTP server, but it was not passing the main payload through the proxy. My connection is heavily throttled when without the proxy.
