(Migrated from github.com)

Integrate a proxy (e.g., Cloudflare Worker or similar) that is only used when a link is played, rather than for all link fetching.

This will allow effective bypass of ISP-level restrictions for streams.

Allow provider-specific proxy selection, because:

Tapframe mentioned some providers have special headers / origin-locks and require requests to come from the same IP the link was fetched from.

Not all providers need proxying, so users can choose which ones use the proxy to optimize performance.

It would be great if the proxying happens after clicking the links to stream rather than proxying all the links while fetching

Personal Experience:

I have been using a GDrive addon deployed on Cloudflare Workers, and I haven’t experienced buffering issues. This suggests that streaming through a Worker proxy can be reliable even for video playback.

It would be great if this could be configurable in the app, so users can pick providers that need the proxy while leaving others direct.

Thanks for considering this!
