MC on Rasperry Pi with Amazon Prime Video

<< < (2/3) > >>

Awesome Donkey:
On Linux distros Netflix will work in both Chrome (and Chromium if that's available and has the Widevine CDM plugin) and Firefox. Probably Opera and Vivaldi as well if they have the Widevine CDM plugin, since they're based on Chromium.

tyler69:
you guys are not talking about integration in mc, are you?

Awesome Donkey:
No, MC integration with Chromium (CEF) + the Widevine CDM isn't possible on Mac and Linux right now. It's not known whether or not this is something that can be done in the future or not as each OS would probably need its own CEF version + Widevine plugin.

In general with the actual web browsers, Netflix and Amazon Video should work fine in Chrome/Chromium/Opera/Vivaldi/Firefox (with the Widevine CDM).

tyler69:
Ok, thanks. But what I don't get: if it's not possible on Linux, how does it work then with MC on a raspberry pi?

It doesn't.

What the person above probably meant is it works in Firefox (the browser). MC doesn't use Firefox (or Gecko, its engine) at all - Chromium would be the only choice on non-Windows platforms, if it's ever supported on Linux and Mac. As mwillems said above, the web viewing stuff (which would require a browser engine integrated, e.g. Chromium) isn't in the Mac or Linux MC.
