Chromium has been recently patched to enable Widevine support as mentioned in the post
This lets you play widevine drm encrypted audio and video,
so you can watch things like Netflix, Channel4 and ITV in the UK or other video services that use widevine drm or listen to Spotify
I have written a how guide to install the www/linux-widevine-cdm port with Poudriere
and how to set up virtual_oss to create a loopback device for sndiod audio
so we can record the audio from chromium "which use sndiod audio and not pulse" with obs studio
Building the www/linux-widevine-cdm port with Poudriere
Freebsd root dotfiles
Chromium desktop entry for wayland
i have tested drm playback on channel 4 and itv in the uk and it works perfectly
also tested playing youtube movies which use drm using a vpn to connect to the us
