Movies (protected contents) no more visible with v22.0.4.0

Post by pigeonskiller »

Movies (protected contents) no more visible on https://it.chili.com/ with 22.0.4.0 version... but working fine with 21.08.0 version...
The same on https://www.raiplay.it with some kind of 'protected content' flashing error. Same error with Chromium from which Slimjet derives...

If you are on Linux, you have to update the ffmpeg each time you update Slimjet:

For Chromium, install "chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra".

@sleeper10

Thanks sleeper10 but it doesn't work because the problem is not ffmpeg codec. Usually I use libffmpeg.so found in https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg- ... t/releases and YouTube works fine. The problem is with movies with protected contents, I mean Digital Rights Managements. Probably something has changed from the last version 21.0.8.0 which by the way worked well! Same problem in Chromium from which Slimjet derives. Not in Chrome which works flowlessly. So almost sure that the problem is something changed in the source code. I hope developers read this post.

Ok, it may be. I've been having sound problems myself.

If you go to Settings, Advanced, Content Settings, Protected Content, is 'Allow sites to play protected content' turned on?

I have a same problem with commercial tv-channels that use DRM-protected content. With Firefox and Chrome everything works ok. Slimjet, Chromium and Opera all refuse to work. So there's definetely something wrong with the latest chromium base.

I made a bug report. Until the problem is solved I installed the previous version of Slimjet which works. But it's just a temporary solution. I feel little bit uncomfortable using browsers which are not updated to the latest version.
