Basilisk take 2 does not play Amazon Video

Disappointing. Basilisk take 2 does not play Amazon Video. Presumably because it does not support DRM like the earlier Basilisk?

Basilisk still supports DRM provided you have it enabled in the preferences.

Netflix is working fine, ruling out a general DRM issue.

I have DRM enabled in preferences but Amazon Video no longer plays for me. Try watching a trailer.

Code: Select all

A later version of Mozilla Firefox is required for Prime Video. To update, click the menu button (three horizontal stripes) on the web browser toolbar, click About Firefox, and then click Restart to update Firefox.

Amazon Video does not seem to like Basilisk's user agent.

I also have a problem at trailers.apple.com . The trailer page constantly refreshes and does not play the video.

Have you tried changing the user agent to spoof a higher version number?

[Terryphi]

Trava, I set the useragent override to this which allows Amazon Video to play:

Code: Select all

general.useragent.override.amazon.co.uk;Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:59.02) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.02

Note I am in the UK. Users using amazon.com would need to amend accordingly.
The constant refresh issue at trailers.apple.com was a cookie issue I have now resolved. Cookie settings may not have copied over correctly from earlier Basilisk.

Apple trailers also play fine here, default UA: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:52.9) Gecko/20100101 Goanna/4.1 Firefox/52.9 Basilisk/20180424 no manual overrides.
