Re: Widevine Content Decryption Module plugin

2018-09-04 Thread Jonathan Wilson
I am not 100% sure but I suspect the issue has to do with the fact that the 
Widevine CDM will only load if the binaries that are loading it haven't 
been tampered with (since a binary that isn't recognized as "authorized" 
could have been modified to steal whatever content the Widevine CDM is 
being used to protect). My guess is that SeaMonkey doesn't include the code 
to download and use the Widevine CDM because the way the infrastructure 
currently works means that whatever deal allows appropriately signed 
Firefox bits to be trusted by the Widevine CDM doesn't allow SeaMonkey bits 
to be signed and trusted the same way.

Widevine Content Decryption Module plugin


SeaMonkey is not included in the supported browsers for HTML5 at 
https://help.netflix.com/en/node/23742


My guess is that you don't have the Silverlight plugin installed.

Widevine Content Decryption Module plugin comes pre-installed in 
Firefox, and is used to decrypt content controlled with Digital Rights 
Management (DRM).

More info: <https://support.mozilla.org/kb/enable-drm>
It is not included with SeaMonkey.

Not a very helpful solution. 'Go to the movies' may not be the lest
hassle way, for instance for me going to the movies is nearly a 100 mile
trip.

To OP, looks like the issue is SeaMonkey does not support Encrypted
Media Extensions and therefore cannot load the Widevine Content
Decryption Module. Firefox Quantum does support Encrypted Media
Extensions so I think that is your most feasible option.

Widevine Content Decryption Module plugin



I just added user.js preference

user_pref("general.useragent.override.netflix.com", "Mozilla/5.0
(Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0");

Works just fine...lousy useragent sniffing.





It didn't help.



Well I don't have any "Widevine Content Decryption Module plugin' in my

Interesting. I can play netflix movies on Firefox.

/do not hassle with netflix/ go to the movies


Strange since Seamonkey is built on the same platform as Firefox.


It won't play if Seamonkey is in the useragent string.

First of all the latest SeaMonkey UA string is:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0

I have the 32-bit version but the important thing here is the latest
SeaMonkey is based on the ESR version of Firefox not the Quantum version
so your modified UA should have been:

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0

That said, although SeaMonkey supports HTML5 I think the issue is
Silverlight. In Windows it works if you have Silverlight installed. I
confirmed this; if I disable Silverlight plugin Netflix no longer works
in Windows with SeaMonkey using the modified UA. Only works when
Silverlight is enabled AND I remove the "SeaMonkey" part of the UA.

Netflix will not work on my Ubuntu laptop with SeaMonkey. Now in the
past I had installed Silverlight back with the Pipelight hack that uses
Wine to load the Silverlight plugin. It worked but was a bit of a kludge.

Now Netflix works no problem on Linux with Firefox. So to be honest I
would just use Firefox when using Netflix.

Just tested and Chrome also works. That's Chrome, not Chromium. I don't
know if Chromium works. I have Chrome because Chromium did not work to
cast to my Chromecast whereas the Google Chrome version did on Linux.
