The ABC seem to have updated their iview catch up TV site and now it

gets a "no playable sources found" error.
Do I need a plugin or something? And if so, where do I get it? (a check
of the network activity using the developer tools shows some JSON that
mentions some suspiciously MPEG-looking things but I have no clue how
that stuff works on SeaMonkey on Windows)
I am using SeaMonkey 2.49.3 (latest public version) on Windows 7.
You don't need the Flash plugin.
You probably do need the Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by
Google, Inc, and the OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems,
bundled in Firefox by Mozilla, but isn't found in SeaMonkey.
I don't think you can find them anywhere to install them.
"As announced in March 2018, the ABC iview development team have been
working hard to bring HTML5 (DRM) streaming onto the iview website which
removes the need for the Adobe Flash Player plugin."
