Cause: The software on Windows does not use the system proxy, resulting in slow video playback with emby and the need for global proxy configuration software. This led to the discovery of MaxProxy.

MaxProxy is a socks5 client designed for Windows users. It allows network programs that do not support working through proxy servers to access the internet through HTTPS or SOCKS proxies or proxy chains. MaxProxy can configure proxies for various applications in the Windows system, addressing the issue of applications not supporting system proxies and helping users quickly set up proxy usage for specific domain names, ports, IPs, and applications. One of its standout features is the ability to force proxy use for certain software that cannot normally set a proxy.
