Impossible to Screen mirror Netflix

Open Matheo5 opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

Hey ! Since 5 or 6 months, when I play a movie on Netflix website, it shows a black screen... Does anyone know why ? Does Netflix now do not allow screen mirroring ? Thanks.

Hey, I guess this is something with DRM? The video content is protected.

This might not be a problem to be handled by this software. The video content is protected and will also not work when streaming in a videoconference system or discord etc. This problem has been around for some time now and my personal solution is to use a browser that I can configure to bypass these restrictions. Streaming should also work to this again then. For some streaming services like for e.g. most of the tv media libraries it works by just using firefox without hardware acceleration.

Should work just fine using the latest Firefox Browser 👍 @Matheo5
