Netflix quit and displayed error codes F7355-1204 and F7363-1260. It will go to the point where the movie is downloading but stops and displays the error codes. My os is Ubuntu 12.04 on a 32 bit machine. Netflix was working fine on the pipelight approach. Reinstalled firefox 52.0.2. Fixed libavcodec. Have yet to reinstall pipelight.
What are these error codes, and how do I fix them.
Clear your Firefox (version 52 or higher only) caches by going to Preferences, Advanced, Network tab, and click the Clear Now buttons, shown below...
You need to install codec (copy and paste in the terminal).
sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras
Also, a browser extension may be causing the problem, try disabling them.
Google chrome is not Chromium so this comment doesn't get you where you need to go. When I was faced with this problem I upgraded my OS to 64-bit and installed the latest 64-bit version of chrome.
It doesn't sound like that's an option for you though, so if your comfortable using the last 32-bit version of chrome, it's still available as pointed out by this comment by David. You can obtain the .deb package directly from the Internet Archive here.
Chrome plays Netflix videos flawlessly.
Note that there will be no further updates to this package (security or otherwise) so it would likely be prudent to restrict it's usage to Netflix only and not make it your default browser.
