As I understand it Mozilla is very reluctant to implementing any DRM into HTML5 videos and thus Netflix cannot support them.
EDIT: They can't implement it because it would conflict with their license, thanks pyalot2 for the correction.
- pyalot2 13y agoMozilla isn't reluctant. They can't implement the DRM because the license to redistribute the proprietary DRM plugin is such that they couldn't offer their browser under the license they've been offering it.
- jiggy2011 13y agoMozilla doesn't have to license anything. All mozilla has to do is implement the relevant part of the standard. The DRM software itself is provided by a third party, the browser simply provides a mechanism for communication. https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/html-media/raw-file/tip/encrypted-media/encrypted-media.html https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/html-media/raw-file/tip/encrypted-med...
