I tried adding module pycryptodomex, but I get this:

sudo pip3 install pycryptodomex
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed

I am on Raspian rpi and actually I am on the latest Kodi 21

Ok, I have got a little further. I upgraded everything, now I get the plugin wanting the authentification key, as It won't accept email/password anymore. I read the readme on this site, but have issues installing the pip packages, i.e:

pip install pycryptodomex (or pip3)
pip install websocket-client (or pip3)

I get the following error and none of the suggestions work:

pip3 install websocket-client
error: externally-managed-environment

× This environment is externally managed
╰─> To install Python packages system-wide, try brew install
    xyz, where xyz is the package you are trying to
    install.

    If you wish to install a Python library that isn't in Homebrew,
    use a virtual environment:

    python3 -m venv path/to/venv
    source path/to/venv/bin/activate
    python3 -m pip install xyz

    If you wish to install a Python application that isn't in Homebrew,
    it may be easiest to use 'pipx install xyz', which will manage a
    virtual environment for you. You can install pipx with

    brew install pipx

    You may restore the old behavior of pip by passing
    the '--break-system-packages' flag to pip, or by adding
    'break-system-packages = true' to your pip.conf file. The latter
    will permanently disable this error.

    If you disable this error, we STRONGLY recommend that you additionally
    pass the '--user' flag to pip, or set 'user = true' in your pip.conf
    file. Failure to do this can result in a broken Homebrew installation.

    Read more about this behavior here: <https://peps.python.org/pep-0668/>

SO I found away to install the required files, See here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/75608323/how-do-i-solve-error-externally-managed-environment-every-time-i-use-pip-3

Ok, after logging in 3 times, it finally produced the key file and a pin. Plugging that into netflix plugin got me a working system ....

I hope this helps someone else.
