NETFLIX ON LINUX<br />

Netflix<br />

under Linux<br />

on the ODROID-C1<br />

CHILL OUT WITH A MOVIE<br />

by @daemon32<br />

Netflix runs well under Android on the ODROID-C1 simply by installing the<br />

mobile app from the Google Play Store, but the technique for getting it to<br />

work under Linux requires more steps. This article describes how to enjoy<br />

Netflix movies while running Arch Linux or Ubuntu.<br />

Installation<br />

Chromium v43.0.2357.134 or higher is needed to run Netflix, which is available<br />

for most ARM Linux distributions. You can check the version of Chromium<br />

by typing “chromium-browser --version” in a Terminal window. Make sure to<br />

upgrade Chromium if the version is lower than the requirement.<br />

1. Download the Chrome OS recovery package at http://bit.ly/1JUOQQw, then extract<br />

the .zip file.<br />

2. Install the qemu-nbd package via the package installer available for the operating<br />

system that you’re using. For example, here is the Ubuntu command for installing<br />

qemu-nbd:<br />

$ sudo apt-get install qemu-nbd<br />

3. Register the NBD protocol:<br />

$ sudo modprobe nbd max_part=16<br />

4. Mount the recovery image using qemu-nbd:<br />

$ sudo qemu-nbd -r -c /dev/nbd0 /path/to/chromeos_6946.86.0_daisy-skate_\<br />

recovery_stable-channel_skate-mp.bin<br />

$ sudo mount -o ro /dev/nbd0p3 /mnt/an/empty/folder<br />

5. Copy the libwidevine files into the Chromium library directory:<br />
