Hi

We are seeing an issue where we see the http header "Expect: 100-continue" being added to the requests. We know that our lib is not adding this header, would like to know if any of Roku roUrlTransfer API adds this automatically to the requests?

Thanks.

Hi, do you see this with roURLTransfer's only or is this with video stream requests too?

Hi

We are seeing it with the roURLTransfer requests.

Thanks

Ok. Is this causing some type of problem, or are you just asking out of curiosity?

Yes, it is causing us some issues with response times. So trying to figure out how this gets set and if there is anything that can done to remove this header?

Thanks

Hi,

Could you also let me know when this header gets added? Is it based on the payload size? We are not seeing this header being added for every requests, only for certain requests.

Thanks

As far as I can tell, this header is only added by the Roku when communicating with certain Netflix servers. Can you share a code sample that causes the header to be added?

Hi Mark

Here is the code that we use
ut = CreateObject("roURLTransfer")
ut.SetPort(m..port)
ut.RetainBodyOnError(true)
ut.AddHeader("content-type", "application/json")
if urlString.InStr(0, "https") = 0
ut.SetCertificatesFile("common:/certs/ca-bundle.crt")
ut.InitClientCertificates()
end if
ut.SetURL(urlString)
ut.AsyncPostFromString('datatobeposted')

Thanks

Any update on this?

Can you send me some URLs to test against via the private message message facility of this forum?

Thanks,
