So Chrome on MacOS is more secure than Edge or Firefox on the same OS and gets 1080p while the other two don't. But it is not as secure as Chrome on Linux? I don't get it. What is Chrome on MacOS doing differently from Chrome on Linux? What is possible on Linux that wouldn't also be possible on MacOS?
- charcircuit 3y agoIt looks like 1.5 years ago desktop Chrome got a new CDM designed to support L1 DRM on platforms (I'm not sure why Opera wouldn't have it though and a couple years ago chrome was 720p too). There doesn't seem to be much information about it, but it may not support general hardware on Linux yet. With all sorts of hardware and driver configurations it can be hard to support especially since the desktop Linux community hasn't invested too much into building protected content paths that could be easily used by a CDM.
- vlz 3y agoThank you for explaining! I guess that is plausible (and much less maddening than the matter-of-fact FAQ page).
