WidevineCdm crash on Ubuntu 22.04
I am using Ubuntu Firefox 110.0 (64-bit) on Ubuntu 22.04 x86_64. I am unable to play contents on Disney+, Amazon Prime Video Netflix and such. I was streaming fine until a few months ago. I have checked my settings and they are all properly set. At the time I am writing this report, the Widevine Content Decryption Module is at Version 4.10.2557.0, updated to its latest release. Obviously DRM content is enabled in settings. Changing the useragent did not solve the problem. I have seen this problem reported before for MacOs users but I could not find anything for linux users. Am I the only one having this problem? I hope someone can help. Thanks

Sounds like you may need to update ffmpegs. I have no issues on Prime. see screenshot

Thanks for your answer. All libs and dependencies re updated. Any idea on how to solve this even in the hard way? BTW, excellent choice of anime ;)
