Changing ssl certs

I'm trying to monitor with a traffic going over my roku to test the that my software is working right. I'm monitoring with a man in the middle attack. This works when the traffic is not encrypted (http) but not when I use ssl (https). I want to use a separate certificate but when I try to add my own cert via SetCertificatesFile, I get a failure with the reason: SSL certificate problem: certificate is not yet valid. Response code is -60.

I get the feeling that the Roku device is reaching out to a CA to validate my cert, but I don't really want it to do that.

Any advice? Is this impossible?

Re: Changing ssl certs

Have you tried disabling peer and/or host validation?

Re: Changing ssl certs

Ah, that was great, thanks for that answer Mr. TheEndless. Now I'm having trouble playing an https stream. I'm getting a -5 malformed stream error. My feeling is that this is related to having https in my m3u stream. I'm using an roVideoPlayer. Any advice?

Re: Changing ssl certs

I'm not sure if the certificate validation can be disabled for roVideoPlayer. Is your stream using the same custom cert?
