Amazon Prime video DRE error
« on: May 04, 2018, 12:25:38 pm »
Hi All, I have just tried to watch a film from Amazon prime and got the attached Digital Rights Error. If I play it via my chrome desktop browser it is fine.
Not sure under MC where I can get to the components section it is suggesting. In the normal browser there is no update needed when I look in chrome://components.

Any ideas?

Don't think MC's embedded Chromium (CEF) ships with the Widevine CDM plugin needed for Amazon Video and Netflix playback. It used to, but things changed for CEF. I think you need to get permission from Google or something to distribute the plugin, can't recall.

Not quite sure why you would have an 'amazon prime' streaming section then...
