Hi all, I was hoping to get some help with an issue.
I am using the Web Browser Plugin in UE4 (4.27.2), however, when I go to use a site like Netflix or Hulu, it says that it is an unsupported browser.
Is there anything I can do to enable the browser to play videos from these sites?
Netflix requires a DRM protection feature in the browser to prevent screenshot and recordings (try to take a screenshot from chrome, it should be black) and I don’t think that the web browser plugin supports it (and probably doesn’t even support hardware acceleration, useful for high res videos).
You could try to check if they have any API to make an “alternative client”, but I’m really doubtful about that…
The web browser plugin is using Chromium Embedded Framework but AFAIK the library version has not been updated for years and no plans to update it.
Hello
is there a way to update the plugin ourselves?
