Firefox was forced to block this content in 2014 . In a very brief way, DRM (digital rights management) is used to limit the use, reproduction and copying of copyrighted material; in short, it is an anti-piracy system. But with the new update, the playback of this content is allowed on Android phones .
In XDA Developers they report on the news and the existing compatibility with Google’s Widevine DRM is discussed. This aspect allows the playback of videos with a resolution of up to 720p from platforms such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video .
Once the latest version of Firefox is installed, when you start playing DRM-protected content, the tab will appear asking for permission to continue . This will always happen if the need for confirmation is not unlocked by default, something possible through the Site Permissions window that can be found in the browser Settings .
Before, there were users who looked for extensions to bypass this protection or found problems with some content. With the latest update, the existing limitations for playing series and movies are over, it can be done without the need to install the application for each platform .
This is good news given how the viewing of series on mobile phones is spreading and that not all users seem interested in installing the applications of the different platforms.
In case you don’t know if you already have this version, you can always download or update it through Google Play , here is the link to Firefox 85 .
