Amazon Prime on Powerbook Pro
06-11-2020, 11:26 AM
I am running Debian on a Micro SD card.
I used the pinebookpro-debian-desktop-mrfixit191226.img.xz installer.
I have run the /usr/bin/update_widevine.sh script.
If I log in as the 'rock' user I am able to view Amazon Prime Video using the Chromium browser.
If I create a new user (using 'sudo adduser') that user gets a 'this browser is not supported' error message when trying to view Amazon Prime Video.
I have tried re-running /usr/bin/update_widevine.sh script when logged in as the new user but this does not make any difference.
For the moment I will log in as the user 'rock' if I want to watch Amazon Prime Video.
But if anyone has any thoughts on what else I might need to do in order for the new user to be able to do this I would be gratful for any advice.
