Force http to (slimproto/esphome) clients

[cociweb]

Hello,

I'm using MASS through reverse proxy with ssl, so the urls get https proto prefix. The streamed content also get these, so the player also inherit this. In the basic concept it would have been ok.

Unfortunatelly, some slimproto clients (based on ESPHOME with sufficient psram is not able to play https media.... - unfortunatelly, there are several PRs and much more FRs for years, but those are not handled (transparently?).

I don't know, is there other use case, but maybe we can introduce a checkbox, to (force as primarily or tried secondarily) fallback to unsecured version.

Could it be a feasible workaround?

Thank's in advance

Sorry as per the docs

Running behind VPNs, across subnets or VLANs, behind firewalls, local SSL, using reverse proxies or inside containers is not supported

OK I understand. Actuallly, I don't use it, but I think it is a valid usecase and it could be an annoying leftover from esphome side.

Thanks for the headsup. Let's close this topic.
