Netflix not working in Firefox, how to fix? [duplicate]

Solution 1:

You can install Firefox 49, which should have Netflix support, but there have been reports of some pretty serious graphical issues in that version.

Chrome will work just fine for Netflix, so I recommend you install that. You'll have to get it from Google's website. If you are using 32-bit Ubuntu, you can't install Chrome, unfortunately, and will have to try FF 49.

Note: Installing the .deb file from Google will fail unless you install a dependency first:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libappindicator1

Chromium is not a good option. It is similar to Chrome, but it doesn't have a lot of the proprietary stuff Chrome does, like Netflix compatibility.
