Actually, with version 125, when I run it unconstrained, it does get widewine. I haven't tried it yet, but the folder structure and the dll are there.

On Xp really ?

... As I and several others already wrote, that WidevineCDM dll requires Win7SP1+ functions to run; even on Win7SP1+, the CDM won't properly work on many "popular" DRM'ed services (Netflix, Spotify, hulu, etc.), because those sites demand its VMP (Verified Media Path) feature, but open-source (non-mainstream) implementations like Supermium aren't being sanctioned by Google :realmad: for that purpose...

I personally use WinXP because I love it and W7 sucks and my modern hardware is literally getting dust because it has no drivers support for XP 

I will just ignore the other stupid argument about --WHY NOT USE W11-- :thumbdown

 

Thanks, I too try to ignore that dude as much as possible, I think he's just trolling around to get attention. He perfectly knows why we are here and what systems we use. I too have some "modern" hardware (though not so modern anymore, 2017-2018). It never saw real usage due to the same absence of drivers. That said, I don't think Supermium and its usage on Windows 11 is off-topic (if we remove his usual dubious blabbery/slang/cursing). The other important question, why win32 simply didn't base Supermium on the ready-made Ungoogled builds in the first place

Don't even start :buehehe:, I can write poems about how win7 sucks, we can go a long off-topic way.

As for Supermium+Win7, win32 wrote it has "...widespread reports of freezing and instability on Windows 7".

<OT>

If I were to rate my three worst operating systems, the absolute worst would be Ubuntu Satanic Edition (yes, that's a real thing, lol), Win ME, and Vista.

7 wasn't for me either, but I did like it better than Vista.  But I also only ran Win 7 Enterprise on work computers, so that's not really the same as running an OS at home.

</OT>

 

I just fired up Supermium in my Win7 VirtualBox.  Seemed fine with no freezing.  At least no more than the slowness I saw while testing in XP.

But granted, that was a VM and not "real" hardware.  Still is generally a bit "telling" as far as testing software.

Better skip that one, and wait for another fix.

and by then the version 122 will likely break other things.

some tricks allow you to get extensions straight from the chrome webstore but there are far more people using google services than people wanting an ungoogle based web browser.

No freezing on Win7 in a VM is easily explainable due to the absence of hardware acceleration and GPU related rasterisation/compositing, which is the main cause of such Win7 hang-ups, when you run it in a VM - basically everything is done only on CPU, like on XP.

Thanks for reminding me why I'm skipping this one, and here only out of curiosity/testings.

He is "joking". It's his "jokes". Just try to ignore. The more you react, the more off-topic nonsense from him we'll see here. Thanks for understanding,

I wonder if there's any other flag besides --no-sandbox that would work-around the disappearing fonts that seems to happen in combination with Stylus.

No, as far I know, I remember I had that disappearing font issue evn with 360EE, the only way to get rid of it is to have a fully/properly functional sandbox or that flag.
