Snapshot 1.0.340.7 - Silent Tabs For Users, Netflix support and HTML5 notifications
-
Hi y'all, Today's snapshot introduces a new feature, something we internally call “Silent Tabs For Users”—an easy way to kill annoying sounds in the browser. We also added Netflix support, HTML5 notifications and of course fixed a bunch of bugs. https://vivaldi.net/en-US/teamblog/70-snapshot-1-0-340-7-silent-tabs-for-users-netflix-support-and-html5-notifications //Christian - Vivaldi Technologies

About the Netflix support, I'm getting the error M7355-1203 here. I already have the chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra, as it tells me in the change log.

Sorry Netflix totally doesn't work on ubuntu 14.04
Extreme annoyance ensues. :S

It does work.
After carefully read hidden description in Changelog of:You need a special patched version of ffmpeg from: https://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjNhuv2-f3JAhXCqQ4KHVmpBWIQFgglMAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Frepo.herecura.eu%2Fherecura%2Fx86_64%2F&usg=AFQjCNG6TJ_zMKnN0N8db_j-SgM40u0tYw
vivaldi-snapshot-ffmpeg-codecs-47.0.2526.59-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz (you need a different version for Beta)
Unpack and move with "install ffmpeg.so /opt/vivaldi-xz…" (install to make it executable)
Further you need a installation of Chrome, not Chromium, on you system for libdevinecmd.so.
There is a dead link in your vivaldi installation directory if Chrome is missing.You can download all files from my dropbox too:

May you have to change owner of the file.
Cheers, mib
EDIT: Try this on other system and copy files is not enough, you need a full Chrome installation.Opensuse 13.2/64
CPU Intel T4200
4 GB Ram
GPU Intel GN 965 -
Where do ypu place the *.so files on a linux system?
-
Hi, on my system they are in /opt/vivaldi-snapshot may different in other distros.
Search for vivaldi-bin and copy the .so files in the same directory.Cheers, mib

And are you guys using netflix without a problem?

Netflix is working fine here as well on Linux Mint 17.3, which is based on Ubuntu 14.04. So one should be able to get both to work.
Here's my story in Linux:
1. Installed Chromium.
2. I noticed Chromium can't play Netflix because it lacks the non-open source package Widevine Content Decryption Module (CDM), which is included with Chrome.
3. So I installed Chrome. Netflix started working.
4. I then installed Vivaldi. Netflix is working here as well.Edit: I now see mib2berlin's helpful replies above. As for me, I only took these steps, not doing anything with a patched ffmpeg. It also seems to be a more robust method for some, and simple enough to do. But sure, you do taint your system with Chrome.

Same here but on Arch and Vivaldi-snapshot always failes playing on netflix
-
Hi gbj1301, same here meant:
You have a patched ffmpeg lib installed?
You have a full Chrome installed?
Does Chrome work with Netflix?Cheers, mib
-
I have vivaldi-snapshot-ffmpeg-codecsvith vivaldi-snapshot. I have chromium installed and netflix works in chromium.
Thanks
-
Well you need Widevine Content Decryption Module plugin that chrome provides, as seen in vivaldi://plugins
About error code [Error Code: M7355-1203], I got that first when I installed the plugin because I forgot to shut down vivaldi while I installed google-chrome.Hope this helps
-
Also regarding [herecura] using http://repo.herecura.be/herecura/i686 I get no gpg errors on Arch if that is any help, everything from him is running smooth and seems legit.

Hi, I followed link and description from https://vivaldi.net/de/teamblog/70-snapshot-1-0-340-7-silent-tabs-for-users-netflix-support-and-html5-notifications
Link is in changlogs, a bit hidden.Cheers, mib

I copy/paste Vivaldi settings in /opt whenever a new version arrives. So you have Widevine and now also ffmpeg-snapshot installed and netflix syill wont play? Does it play in Chromium?
