Watching Spotify and listening to Netflix in 2023

which is a relatively straightforward proxy for the Content Decryption Module API. The port provides a native FreeBSD CDM implementation (a shared library) that in background transparently launches one or more Linux processes loading Widevine. They communicate through a pair of Unix sockets.

How do you even know where to start with developing stuff like this?

I need to come to terms with my lack of patience for deep technical problem-solving and general lack of intelligence.

It should be, but somebody would have to patch Firefox to enable Widevine. Neither me nor arrowd (who worked on the ports) are going to do it.

Why you don't want to do it ? what's the problem that you aren't able to fix ?

Has this bug been fixed or my system is misconfigured ?

Just install via package

that would be too easy

I don't understand what you mean. Your sentence is very short.

 

[NapoleonWils0n]

normally you try to install from ports, then using git
file a bug report somewhere

find a old website and copy files to a random directory

just saying that you tend not to use the easy solution

Are you getting the same error ?

 

[NapoleonWils0n]

no because i installed the foreign-cdm package

i just use packages on my system
and poudriere to build linux-widevine-cdm from ports

I had this working at the end of last year and Q1 this year.
For other reasons I had to switch back to quarterly packages instead of latest.
Yesterday I had a lot of packages upgraded due to the Q2 transition.
I installed chromium and foreign-cdm as packages and /www/linux-widevine-cdm from /usr/ports with 'make and make install' as before, but DRM content could not be showed.
Do I need to be on 'latest' again?

I switched to latest again today (finished a long period of informal care which prevented me from tinkering).

Reinstalled some nvidia/nvidia-drm-kmod drivers as packages and compiled /usr/ports/www/linux-widevine-cdm (doas make deinstall, doas make clean, doas make and doas make install).

I am able to watch DRM content again.
