Widevine deprecation M107

[Thomas Beverley]

Hi, I've noticed that Widevine is being deprecated in M107 in preparation for a switchover on Nov 17th. What steps do we need to take to ensure we can continue to play protected content? Should we still sign with our Widevine cert?

Widevine is not part of the open-source Chromium. For Widevine specific questions please contact them directly: www.widevine.com/contact

Where did you notice this? There have been some misinforming articles recently.

AFAIK, Widevine is not being deprecated. You should not need to do anything.

Thanks, here's one of the blogs https://chromeunboxed.com/chrome-107-arrives-with-full-hvec-support-and-widevine-deprecation/ .

It does look like there's nothing to do, sorry for the noise!
