[jira] [Commented] (CB-13840) Support Widevine in Cordova webviews

["Pierre Rudloff (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13840?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16342781#comment-16342781 ] 

Pierre Rudloff commented on CB-13840:
-------------------------------------

I had a look at Cordova's Android source code and it seems the permission request is already granted every time: [https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/commit/eb70f05168dcf3a07d8716c772db3a3c3c3a59f8]
So I guess there must be something else preventing Widevine from working in Cordova.

> I'm developing an app that needs to play DRM media.
> On Android Chrome it uses Widevine, but it does not seem to be available in Cordova.
> According to [this Chromium ticket|https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=526058] there is a permission request that needs to be handled when creating the webview.
> (As a workaround we use Crosswalk, [which does support Widevine|https://github.com/crosswalk-project/crosswalk/pull/3147/commits/0124ee94107e3dc21c16f3748c2fee2315bbaca5], but it is not maintained anymore...)
