Why usage of proxy?

[djpirra]

I need to add video casting to a mobile app in flutter...
I have tried your approach and I cannot seem to make it work.

Also does it really need a local proxy? Can it not fetch the segments directly from online server of the streaming?

It does bot need a proxy to use dlna video casting . the proxy is used to fetch YouTube-related resource , as it is forbidden in my country.
