I'm still getting a "MediaKeys" error at https://bitmovin.com/mpeg-dash- hls-drm-test-player/ as of the Ubuntu-provided Firefox 58.0.
Please note that the purpose of this bug is to say that DRM playback is entirely broken for me, not just that I'm having trouble with one particular site. The Bitmovin URL is just a convenient place to test because it doesn't require a login. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1724705 Title: Firefox error: "DRM: Failed to create and initialize a MediaKeys object" Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I get an error playing DRM-restricted content with the Firefox 56.0 that comes with Ubuntu 16.04, but not with the Firefox 56.0 that I download from Mozilla. Specifically, if I go to https://bitmovin.com/mpeg-dash-hls-drm-test- player/ with the Firefox 56.0 included with Ubuntu 16.04, the video box in the middle of the page displays static with the error message "DRM: Failed to create and initialize a MediaKeys object". If I instead download Firefox 56.0 from https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/56.0/linux-x86_64/en- US/firefox-56.0.tar.bz2 and extract and run that Firefox, the video will correctly start after I click play. In both cases Firefox is configured with: * about:preferences > "Play DRM-controlled content" checked * about:addons > "Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc." v1.4.8.1008 installed and set to "Always Activate" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1724705/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
