video download aborts without error after upgrading from 8.1.4.0 to 8.2.0.23

Your question

I'm trying to downloads some videos from a user/pw protected site that worked nicely in the past. However, since upgrading from 8.1.4.0 to 8.2.0.23 (and also the latest beta) the download randomly stops, sits there for a second or two and then aborts without any error.

Browser Download works reliably, with the helper app it shows the above behavior. However, only when upgrading from 8.1.4.0 to the latest stable and keeps breaking with the current beta. After downgrading to 8.1.4.0 it works again ...

Any thoughts?

Can you confirm which version of the beta you've been using? I updated today.

Is the resulting file playable?
What's its format?

In the details of the video (in the submenu after you highlight the hit), there is a core_media section. Can you unfold it and tell me what the "builder" is ?

Hi Paul,
the beta is 8.2.0.23a1, and yes the video (mp4) is playable, just finishing early ... the builder is "HTTPMedia"

Best regards

What's your coapp version?

I've had 2.0.10 and upgraded to 2.0.17 (beta) earlier today to validate it was not related to the coapp version being outdated ... 8.1.4.0 works with both
