About 15 days netflix does not work on my firefox 53.0. It is likely that some update made it stop working but I can not know if it is.
Recently updated the system to the gentoo testing branch but before updating it netflix did not work.

This is the log that is displayed in the terminal.

Thanks for helping the beginners! :lol:

As far as I understand it it used to work before the upgrade? Just downgrade it for now?

I will describe it graphically to be clearer:

gentoo stable - firefox 52.0.2 (I had to update firefox to work netflix)..............................................- It worked
gentoo stable - firefox 53 (An update appeared for the browser)......................................................- It worked
gentoo stable - firefox 53 (At some point stopped working. I think some system update did it).........- It didn't work
gentoo testing - firefox 53 (Update the entire system. I thought that might solve the problem)........- It didn't work
gentoo testing - firefox 52.0.2 (Downgrade firefox to test if it solved the problem)............................- It didn't work
gentoo testing - firefox 53 (now)....................................................................................................- Still not working

An update today solved the problem.


Code:
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U  ] dev-libs/libtasn1-4.10-r2 [4.10-r1]
[ebuild     U  ] sys-apps/portage-2.3.6 [2.3.5]
[ebuild     U  ] sys-fs/xfsprogs-4.11.0 [4.10.0]
[ebuild     U  ] net-libs/libssh-0.7.5 [0.7.4]
[ebuild     U  ] sys-fs/udisks-2.6.5 [2.6.4]
[ebuild     U  ] www-client/firefox-bin-53.0.2 [53.0-r2]
[ebuild     U  ] www-client/firefox-53.0-r1 [53.0]

Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]


I leave them so that those who know will see it. That could serve you
Thanks!

No. It was part of the tests to try to detect the problem. But when they did not work, none of the 2 worked. And when they ran again, (both worked) I deleted firefox-bin
