Got Netflix working again with Firefox 50. I had to adjust the User Agent (using "User-Agent Switcher" plug-in) to: Linux / Chrome 53: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/535.11 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.34 Safari/537.36
And I do not need the "export MOZ_DISABLE_GMP_SANDBOX=1" workaround anymore, which helped to avoid a crash with 49.0.2. when widevine was started (after Ubuntu 16.10 upgrade). I guess this issue was related to problem described here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1638719 Title: Widevine crashes on Firefox 49.0.2 and Ubuntu 16.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1638719/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
