Joe Bowser commented on CB-13840:
---------------------------------
It seems that I accepted this PR, although I don't remember why since I didn't
think it was going to work. That being said, the host application might have
to request a permission to play this media from Android, since the original
issue CB-9115 was left open since I thought Marshmallow was going to blow this
up.
It might make sense for a call to the plugins to be here and for the permission
to be added instead, and for the original approach to be followed. I really
don't like having a paper trail for this issue, and perhaps I had a mind lapse
corresponding Jira discussions to GitHub discussions (I hope this migrates to
GitHub issues soon), or there was something that happened on Slack (which of
course is lost due to it being a free plan).
> Support Widevine in Cordova webviews
> ------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-13840
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13840
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cordova-android
> Affects Versions: cordova-android-7.0.0
> Environment: I have tested with cordova-android 6.3 and 7.0 on
> Android 6.0.1.
> Reporter: Pierre Rudloff
> Assignee: Joe Bowser
> Priority: Major
>
> I'm developing an app that needs to play DRM media.
> On Android Chrome it uses Widevine, but it does not seem to be available in
> Cordova.
> According to [this Chromium
> ticket|https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=526058] there is
> a permission request that needs to be handled when creating the webview.
> (As a workaround we use Crosswalk, [which does support
> Widevine|https://github.com/crosswalk-project/crosswalk/pull/3147/commits/0124ee94107e3dc21c16f3748c2fee2315bbaca5],
> but it is not maintained anymore...)
