Hello. Thank you for updating RAI. I pulled the update from GitHub, uninstalled previous version (2.00?) and installed update version. I did this about 8 hours ago. When I first started RAI, I was able to get Dirette TV streaming. When I check now I'm getting the block whitescreen "can only be viewed in Italy...." I didn't check everything but I can view Replay TV and On Demand. I use IPVanish for VPN.
It appears Replays and OnDemand are not geo-blocked as I can view without VPN so I suspected RAI is aware of some vpn IP addresses or detecting a proxy. Unfortunately I didn't document what server I connected to originally.
EDIT: Dirette TV Stream is functioning. It was a VPN issue. For those that use IP Vanish, most of the "Italian" VPN servers appear to have had their IP address on RAI's geo ip blacklist so you have to find a good one.

Anyway appreciate you updating the app. My wife is happy even if she can watch the Replays!
