My Linux stock browser (Version: 76.0.1) fails to play DRM videos, such as Netflix and HBOGO. Is there any fix for this?

Do you have the Widevine plugin installed (Add-ons -> Plugins) that is required for playing DRM protected content ?

Try to toggle DRM off/on to see if that makes Firefox (re)load DRM components.

You can try the Firefox version from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution.
