Incorrect duration of some streamed audio files.

The client in my case is the one integrated in the native android player.
What I can see so far:
- not all files are affected.
- the file is not corrupted because readable with the link:
- curiously, the meta data duration which are contained in the first bytes of the audio file, is not correct when I partially download the file (usually the first 1000 KB) while the other meta datas are ok (title, album, art etc.).

 

Response headers for a file where the duration is correctly returned:

 

 

 

accept-ranges: bytes
    cache-control: max-age=60

In both cases I don't have a "content-length" header?.

I noticed  content-type: application/json  and not audio/mpeg why?
To get this headers in response I used okhttp client.

In fact, this problem appeared recently.

 

same result if I force the protocol with HTTP/2 with:

 

 

public static OkHttpClient getHttp2Client(){
        ConnectionPool connectionPool = new ConnectionPool();
        return new OkHttpClient.Builder()
                .followRedirects(true)
                .protocols(Arrays.asList(Protocol.HTTP_2,Protocol.HTTP_1_1))
                .retryOnConnectionFailure(true)
                .connectionPool(connectionPool)
                .build();
    }

 

 

 

 

 

"you should update your client/code to support "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" 

 

 

 Does this mean that I have to add "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" as a header to my request?
