Widevinecdm plugin has crashed. Learn more...and when I click on Learn more, there's nothing there that helps.

Can anyone help? Thank you.

Ok, I downgraded and everything was working fine. My settings are as you see in the screenshot, but Firefox updated without me prompting it. This is confusing...
