Request for Investigation and Performance Improvement of Supremium Browser on Windows XP #456

Open RaulKong898 opened 3 months ago

RaulKong898 commented 3 months ago

Dear Supremium browser developers,

I am experiencing a problem with using Netflix on the Supremium browser installed on a Windows XP operating system. When I try to access Netflix, I receive the "Error code M7702-1003". I am directed to enter the browser settings at "chrome://settings/content/protectedContent" and ensure that the option "Sites can play protected content" is selected. I have checked and this is set as required, but I still cannot access Netflix.

I would appreciate if you could investigate this issue. Also, please work on improving the performance of the Supremium browser, especially for Windows XP users, to provide a smoother browsing experience.

Thank you in advance for your attention!

Who is such developer-s ? And why they must do this ? There are no such developers : #299. [pulls] There are developers of Chromium. [pulls]

Also, please work on improving the performance of the Supremium browser, especially for Windows XP users, to provide a smoother browsing experience.

You can do this yourself for all of us. :)) And we will be happy. (#427, #442)

are you sure? Widevine CDM working?

It must be a very old authorized Widevine. The current binary needs Windows 7. And also Netflix requires VMP which means it doesn't normally work with Supermium, unless some regions (since the user seems to be from Georgia) don't require VMP at all.

And now that Google added SODA.dll (live captions) which needs Vista or 7, a binary patcher will be needed to make all of these binaries compatible. It's being tested now.

And I did plan on evaluating Supermium single-core performance but there is insufficient time to do so now. supermium-electron is in the same predicament, and could probably be replaced with binary patching of existing Electron applications using the same tool.
