How do you play Netflix in LXDE

Post by jacatone »

I've seen several posts saying you have to install Wine along with Silverlight to play Netflix in LXDE but haven't had much luck gettng it to work. Anyone have a better options? Thanks.

Tried all that and still couldn't get it to work. Didn't see Silverlight asking to enable DRM content. I'm using Linux Mint 12 LXDE, maybe it just won't work with that distro.
