Same problem, the version of thecrypt0 (v4) works fine for me, but it has blocked the RTSP Server (donation). (I have the CN).

[hkrob]

I've gone back to v4 actually, I paid for the license a while ago. I'd like to use v5, so I hope development on it continues

So if you say that paid RSTP works for you, I think I'll do it too, thanks :).

[hkrob]

Yes it works well for me.. but I've noticed people are having trouble obtaining licenses now.. so not sure if the developer is still working on pushing them out...

I am not sure if worth trying 0.3.6 but it would be easier for me if I had a Chinese version to test

[github-actions]

This issue has been stale for 30 days - it will be closed within the next 7 days if not updated

[alienatedsec]

@Mr-Mentor @hkrob please try 9.3.8e #263

[alienatedsec]

@hkrob there was a problem with proxychain in general. I got it fixed with this 0.4.0b release. Please, if you wish to try again, this would be great.

[hkrob]

Hi @alienatedsec you really don't give up do you? :)

I have installed 0.4.0b but still can't connect to the app (I re-paired etc)
Not sure if it's a problem with the proxychain config now? has the format changed?
What is the format you expect in proxychains.conf ?

[alienatedsec]

@hkrob

you really don't give up do you? :)

Not easily - true :)

The format is also embedded in the 0.4.0b through that code:

yi-hack-v5/src/www/httpd/cgi-bin/set_configs.sh

Lines 106 to 111 in a6453e4

	elif [ "$KEY" == "PROXYCHAINS_SERVERS" ] ; then
	VALUE=$(echo $VALUE | sed 's/^\"//g')
	VALUE=$(echo $VALUE | sed 's/\"$//g')
	VALUE=$(echo $VALUE | sed 's/;/\\n/g')
	cat $CONF_FILE.template > $CONF_FILE
	echo -e $VALUE >> $CONF_FILE

The output provided in the /?page=proxy is added at the end of the below template.

yi-hack-v5/src/proxychains-ng/proxychains.conf

Lines 1 to 8 in a6453e4

	random_chain
	chain_len = 1
	tcp_read_time_out 15000
	tcp_connect_time_out 8000
	[ProxyList]

[hkrob]

Cool - got it, now trying to find China proxies that work!!

[alienatedsec]

@hkrob

Try using this string on the proxy config page. Press save and then test or try either way.

socks4 61.171.50.169 6688;socks4 218.78.65.202 6688;socks5 1.180.0.242 7302;socks5 60.190.195.146 10800

[hkrob]

It looks like you've cracked the case!
I had to try a couple of times, but it eventually connected - I can now view via VLC and the App at the same time

Well done and thanks!

[alienatedsec]

Fixed in 0.4.0c onwards
