I confirm that there is backend browser sniffing intended to redirect mobile browsers to tuteve.tv's mobile site. This detection fails to recognise Firefox OS devices as smartphones. The result is that Firefox Android is redirected to http://m.tuteve.tv, Firefox OS is not redirected - these HTTP headers from the request analysis shows that it gets the desktop webpage:

Response for: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Mobile; rv:18.1) Gecko/18.1 Firefox/18.1'
Response Status: 200
content-length: 23573
content-type: text/html
