Pipelight the new silverlight solution for linux :D
« on: August 21, 2013, 10:13:02 am »
Hello EZ,

Today I came across this new project called pipelight which will give silvershite + DRM support through a browser plugin.
There was the moonlight project which lost the battle after DRM was introduced.
Companies such a neflix use this microsoft crap which ruled out linux/unix aswell as causing a lot of trouble on mac.
As for my own country there are various services that I couldnt use due to this.
Have not tested it yet but I will when im back from the hollidays.
Finally a solution , Really hope works out for us.

As far as I understand it allows for windows plugins to run inside the browser , thus letting it believe its running native, sorta the wine idea I guess.


Thanks Michael Muller for this project :D
