I did wonder if that zscale proxy was yours ;-)

Also if you only need the proxy to authenticate with the GeoIP, you can
connect directly to the servers once the client's been authenticated - use
the --partial-proxy switch to only route authentication traffic through the
proxy (will most likely dramatically improve your download speed).
Use --long-help for syntax details or see Christian Hewitt's posts from
earlier this month for more details:

For live viewing you need to proxy all traffic as the streaming server
performs geoip checks.
