Description
My kodi system is 6.12.25+rpt-rpi-v8 #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 1:6.12.25-1+rpt1 (2025-04-30) aarch64 GNU/Linux / Kodi (20.5 (20.5.0) Git:20240501-8c8d7afa26). Platform: Linux ARM 64-bit
What I tried:
1) export http_proxy=http://192.168.1.111:8888 export https_proxy=http://192.168.1.111:8888
2) set proxy in kodi settings
3) set proxy in inputstream.ffmpegdirect settings
and none of this works, just no connection via proxy... any ideas on how to make proxy work in kodi for iptv hls streams?
on windows VLC player proxy works fine, it works everywhere except kodi

Research direction

Start by reproducing the proxy failure with the stated Kodi and Linux ARM setup, checking the environment variables and Kodi and inputstream.ffmpegdirect proxy settings against an IPTV HLS stream; done means establishing whether proxy support works or documenting the specific limitation.
