 |
|
Hello,
Pipelight used to work just fine for me (for watching Netflix) but has recently stopped working. I remove .wine-pipelight and pluginreg.dat but still no go (I have enabled silverlight, versions 4, 5.0 and 5.1). When I go to about:plugins I get messages saying it's installing all three versions of silverlight, but they don't appear in the list of plugins and Netflix asks me to install silverlight. Any ideas?? |

| I'm fairly certain that you can just use HTML5 to watch Netflix now. Isn't that better than using a silverlight workaround? |

Hi grin_,
Thanks for the response! Can I use html5 to watch Netflix in firefox? I can do it chrome, but it pops up a status bar every minute or so and I haven't been able to get that to go away. I tried unmaksing a later version of firefox to use html5 but didn't have any luck with using it for netflix.
