Hi, is it possible to ignore the content-length header or activate some option for it? as is done with Curl with --ignore-content-length or --http-continuous in VLC, because I think Kodi uses Curl.

My server sends a false Content-Length header: 2624204796, when it reaches that download the stream stops, this happens on the PC if I don't add the headers I think that on Kodi it cuts me off for that too

I have requested it in IPTV Simple Client, but I think it does not depend on the plugin

Thank you

I believe you are looking for a change in ffmpeg logic not curl.  It does analysis up front based on the original duration.  If you test with ffplay you would see the same thing. 

The issue is not just streaming files, growing files on the file system can stop too.
