Hi

No, there are no options in curl to cut off headers like this.

When an HTTP server is given a request such as the one you showed above, it
should *not* reply with this kind of multipart mime stuff (with boundaries
and all) since the reply is one single part. This is the kind of reply you
should expect if you ask for more than one non-overlapping range.

Curl does not provide any options or functions to filter or alter this
downloaded content.

You do best to pipe this output into a clever program/script that knows how
to strip off this protocol violation.
