[gentoo-user] Netflix Error Code O7355 with Opera

[gentoo-user] Netflix Error Code O7355 with Opera

[Walter Dnes]

  I'm getting bored, so I decided to try out Netflix... no go.  I get
"Netflix Error Code O7355".  I'm using Opera 68, which easily beats the
Opera (55 or later) linux system requirements at
https://help.netflix.com/en/node/23742  The Netflix website says they
don't offer linux support, although Netflix is supposed to run on Linux.
I don't give up easily.  I launched Opera from a console and got a bunch
of errors.  The following appear to be relavant...

[30107:108:0610/121713.922079:ERROR:batching_media_log.cc(38)] MediaEvent: {"error":"FFmpegDemuxer: no supported streams"}
[30107:108:0610/121713.922439:ERROR:batching_media_log.cc(38)] MediaEvent: {"error":"FFmpegDemuxer: no supported streams"}

[30107:66:0610/121714.098624:ERROR:batching_media_log.cc(35)] MediaEvent: {"pipeline_error":14}

  A wild guess is that ffmpeg is missing a codec or two.  If anybody has
Netflix in HTML5 running on Linux, please post the output of...

emerge -pv ffmpeg

  Hopefully that fixes my problem.

Walter,
   Sorry if this doesn't help much. You asked for Linux but requested
Gentoo. (i,e, - the emerge request)

   On all of my Kubuntu machines I have no problem with Netflix in Chrome.
The closest ffmpeg info I can give you with their package manager follows.

Good luck,
Mark

I've nevert gotten Netflix to work in anything except Chrome.  [Though
I don't remember trying Opera.]

I use Chrome all the time so that's all I previously had experience with.

1) No problem with Firefox. Video played fine.

2) Tried Opera. (which is a 'snap') Did not work.

  I've got the sinking feeling that it's c copyright management thingy
that only works on Chrome.  I dread building it; wish me luck...

google-chrome is the binary package, it shouldn't be a problem.

That's the trouble with binary packages, you can't turn off dependencies
with USE flags, but most of that stuff is fairly small, much of it is
perl modules.

You don't actually build Chrome.  You install the binary package.

You can build Chromium, but Netflix won't work with it.

I don't watch Netflix on my laptop, but I've just tried it in Chromium
and it seems to be working fine. I suspect it's either the widevone or
proprietary-codecs USE flag.

I would expect "widevine" as that is mentioned in the help about the DRM

  I have Chrome installed. I looked at Chromium.  It wants even more

Unless you're using it as your main browser, it's not worth even
considering the extended build times. I do use it as my main browser, so
I use chromium and firefox-bin.

Incidentally, I found an a reliable way of killing Firefox on this
laptop, run a chromium build in the background :)

TBH the way Chromium has been bloating it would kill pretty much anything 
alive on a PC.  With 16G RAM I had to add swap, reduce number of jobs, move /
var/tmp/portage to a disk and various other resource gymnastics to stop users 
cursing at me for "doing things on their workstation and slowing it down"!

I figured since qtwebengine uses the same rendering engine and I spend enough 
time compiling that package anyway, because KDE won't do without it, I might 
as well ditch Chromium.  I haven't looked back.  ;-)

Mind you I don't play/watch/pay Netflix anyway.

It's worse with 8GB, but manageable with package.env. It does cause
slowdowns and pauses from time to time, but they were short-lived...
except with Firefox. Once Firefox got hit by a lack of resources, it
wouldn't recover and stayed unresponsive until I shut t down and
restarted it.

I recently started using distcc, specifically for Chromium but I now use
it for a few other packages too. This laptop is now happily building
Chromium and it was only this discussion that reminded me that it was
doing so :)

Life would be easier if the rendering engine was separated from the
browser so it only had to be built once.

Since you already have qtwebengine built, you could always try falkon as
well.

Besides the dependencies, Chromium itself is a very long build.  2.5
days on my oldish laptop, 1.5 days on all my other machines.

Chromium used to have a USE="jumbo-build" which combined source files and sped 
up the build process noticeably.  Since it disappeared the build times grew 
ridiculously longer, although I can't recall anything longer than 19 hours or 
so on quad core CPUs.  However, I made sure to set job counts down to 2 or 3 
depending on the CPU and available RAM.  With each job reaching over 3G at 
busy times, an old twin core laptop with 4G RAM would start swapping like mad 
at some point and taking longer in total than setting --jobs=1.

You may want to experiment by setting env variables for Chromium to restrict 
--jobs and --load-average so as to keep broadly within the constraints of the 
available RAM.

If it's only once or twice a month, it's not worth fussing with.  I
swear there have been a couple times in the past few months when it
got updated multiple times within a week...

So it's not once or twice a month ;-)

Oftentimes, it's a rebuild rather than an update, triggered by one of its
dependencies. Adding two lines to /etc/portage to sets -j2 for this one
ebuild is hardly a fuss and well worth the effort. The problem is not so
much the CPU usage as using up all the RAM with several jobs and ending
up running on swap. Using distcc hasn't massively reduced build times but
it has substantially reduced the impact of the build on using the
machine.

The fuss is the experimentation to find out if -j2 is faster than -j1
or not.

In my situation is is not so much about speed but not bringing the system
to its knees. I found the -j3 was generally acceptable with 8GB, -j2 may
have been better, but as long as it worked I was happy.

I run testing on this laptop so updates were more frequent, although I
now use Chromium from stable to reduce that.

Ahh!  Yes, running Chromium ~amd64 must introduce a whole new world of pain!

Have you also tried 'echo bfq > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler' to see if it 
makes a difference?  It seems to have made a positive difference on my systems 
here, especially if they are on spinning disks, with limited RAM.

It's an SSD, but I now use distcc for Chromium and a few other large
packages and the problems have gone away.

I run testing on this workstation [1], and today I emerged chromium to replace 
google-chrome. It took 4 hours on 12 threads and 32 GB RAM. I'm going back to 
google-chrome. I rarely use either of them, so it's not worth spending all 
those cycles on chromium.

1.  I prefer stable, but Zoom requires a lot of testing packages: too many for 
a mixed stable and testing system in my opinion.

Yea, after looking at what was required to install Zoom, I decided to
stick with the Kindle Fire for that.  It will only show 4 video
windows in gallery mode (or whatever it's called), but other than that
it works perfectly.

I do not have those enabled and can watch full-screen on 3440x1440.

Currently using 68.8.0, but don't expect any issue with newer versions.

To make this work, in "about:preferences", the option "Play DRM-controlled 
content" needs to be enabled.
