Bug Description
I get an error playing DRM-restricted content with the Firefox 56.0 that comes with Ubuntu 16.04, but not with the Firefox 56.0 that I download from Mozilla.
Specifically, if I go to https:/
In both cases Firefox is configured with:
* about:preferenc
* about:addons > "Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc." v1.4.8.1008 installed and set to "Always Activate"
affects: | apparmor (Ubuntu) → firefox (Ubuntu) |
I'm still getting a "MediaKeys" error at https:/ /bitmovin. com/mpeg- dash-hls- drm-test- player/ as of the Ubuntu-provided Firefox 58.0.
Please note that the purpose of this bug is to say that DRM playback is entirely broken for me, not just that I'm having trouble with one particular site. The Bitmovin URL is just a convenient place to test because it doesn't require a login.
