Hi,
I'm using Tor Browser 4.0.2 to access a specific live show that's
available only to Spain residents (I happen to be spanish, just living in
another country at the moment).
The URL for the show is here :
http://www.atresplayer.com/directos/television/neox-g/
I have modified my torrc file by adding the following code : ExitNodes
{ES}
The exit node is now always located in Spain, as confirmed by the attached
screen cap : !http://i61.tinypic.com/9jzn0y.jpg
I believe I was able to access the live streaming at least once or twice
after the installation of Tor Browser, about 2 weeks ago.
However, I now consistently obtain the following error message :
!http://i61.tinypic.com/2rlzryu.jpg
It basically says (error code 301) that the streaming video isn't
available, but I really believe it is. I've been obtaining the same error
for more than 10 days now, and the error isn't specific to the particular
live show I'm looking for, but to any program aired by this site.
So, can somebody help me with this ? Is this a bug from Tor Browser ? A
new type of protection by the site that detects that I'm not really from
Spain and acts accordingly ? Something else ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
