So, There's this website called pw.live and I use it for study purposes. And I've recently switched to linux and installed firefox. But that website loads but any videos or live streams don't. Even though it works perfectly fine on Windows version of firefox.

I tried to search about this and it may be because the content is DRM protected. I'm just speculating though it may be broken for some very different reason. I also looked into solutions to fix DRM related issues. And found some solutions but the plugin Widevine Content Decryption Module provided by Google Inc. just doesn't exist in the plugins tab. There is only "OpenH264 Video Codec" there. And I think that might be the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Congrats on the switch, but remember to always show the issue. No one can help you if they cannot see the issue. What OS? What Desktop? X11 or Wayland? Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla, run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Make sure you have FFmpeg installed. For example on Youtube you may still be able to play older videos but not recently uploaded or live streams without the FFmpeg package installed.

Thank you for your response. And yes what you said it true now that I looked into it. I can't watch livestreams on youtube too. Even though my browser is Up to Date. I apologize if it's a dumb question. Do I need to install FFmpeg thing in my browser or is it meant to be installed into the system. The file I downloaded for it is "tar.xz" and I'm not familiar with this file type. It was a archive type of file and I extracted it. Now I don't know what to do with this. I did try to search tutorials but IDK what to search TBH. If you know about any tutorial or guide. Please do tell. Thank you again.
