Gfycat Companion blocks loading of SSL URLs. #12

Open whispy opened 9 years ago

whispy commented 9 years ago

For example: https://t.co/W6At60hJTa (or the original link to which it redirects: https://bylc.cc/flag.gif)

If I enter either URL into the address bar when Gfycat Companion is enabled and hit enter, then it loads for a split second and then quickly returns to the blank new tab page.

With Gfycat disabled, the page loads fine.

I have noticed this behavior several times before, and I think that it is related to SSL. I believe this because when I change the original URL from https://bylc.cc/flag.gif to http://bylc.cc/flag.gif (removing the s), then the image loads fine and is run through the transcoding process.

(Removing the s from the t.co URL does not fix the loading, but I am not sure why. However, removing the s from a bunch of other URLs allowed them to load.)

Please let me know if any more information is needed.
