Netflix streaming issues on Xbox

January 22nd, 2009

I kept getting some “playback for this item could not be started” errors with Netflix streaming on the same items over and over.   After a few tcpdump’s I realized whatever content delivery mechanism netflix is using didn’t play nice with my squid proxy.  For some reason squid was sending random fin packets when the show was about to start.  I turned off squid fo rthe xbox host and everything started working.  Just an FYI to those out there that are running http proxies and having problems with netflix.
