Graphics, sound and multimedia • Re: How To Install WideVine In FireFox ? (64 bit RPi OS)

I use TubiTV videos as ' test cases ' ....

For a non DRM protected video go look at ' Babylon 5 ' (one of my favorite science-fiction TV shows of years past)

For a DRM protected video try-out ' The Fifth Element ' (the movie starring Bruce Willis)

------------------------------------------------

I have an old installation of Windows 7 on my dual-boot HP z600 Computer with a much out-of-date FireFox (~1.15) :

It plays ' Babylon 5 ' just fine

If I select ' The Fifth Element ' I see a " CONTENT NOT AVAILABLE " error message ( without even clicking 'Play' )

------------------------------------------------

If I boot the HP z600 PC into UBUNTU 24.04 ........ with a up-to-date version of FireFox (~137) :

It plays ' The Fifth Element ' without any problem (as well as everything else on TubiTV that I've tried)
