Background downloader does not take HTTP configuration into account causing asset downloads to fail for certain HTTP configurations

[sdebruyn]

The bug

The user can configure certain HTTP-related features; in my case I came across this issue because I use client certificate validation (mutual TLS / mTLS).

Some features in Immich use the background_downloader package. E.g. when downloading an asset. The HTTP configuration is not passed to this background_downloader package, causing all HTTP requests to fail.

In my case this means I'm unable to download assets.

I have the exact same problem, didged always-on VPN and started using mTLS a while ago and now the wifey started complaining that she's constantly unable to download pictures out of my shared album.
Testing her claim I was also unable to download cloud-only pictures to my phone (now running 1.123.0, updated from 1.121.0 to see if that fixed the problem but it didnt)..
After switching the app the the local-lan adres downloads worked fine again, setting it back on mTLS settings downloads where unavaileble again with the error "Download failed" and absolutely zero logs about the faillure.

Edit:
Im running mTLS directly on my Fortigate firewall with my own private PKI.

Edit 2:
I know its not related to this issue but just to get it out there once more I'd also really love to see a "dowload selected" option within the app..
Downloading multiple images is a PITA atm..
