I have been watching netflix from my macbook air on firefox everyday and suddenly the video im watching abruptly stops and at the top of the page it says " WideVineCdm plug in crash" and at first refreshing the page would remedy the issue and i could resume my video but now refreshing doesn't do anything & I have spent literally all day trying to get back to what i was watching and it's so frustrating because all the tips on what to do are not helping at all and i am sure i am using the most updated version of firefox.. Help! Please!

There should be an update today or tomorrow. Some widevine issues should be fixed.

Firefox 78.10.1 has already been released, but that doesn't has a fix for OS X 10.9

The fix that 88.0.1 and 78.10.1 will get is about playing DRM protected content in HD when HDCPv1 is enforced. There is no fix possible for Mac OS X 10.9.5 users because Widevine no longer supports this OS.

See comment 14:

I've seen some folks discussing this bug in the context of Widevine no longer working on MacOS 10.9 due to the CDM not supporting that OS version. To avoid ambiguity, I want to highlight that the MacOS compat issue is a separate issue from this and is tracked in bug 1706393.

The DRM knowledge base article has been updated.

Note: The current version of Google Widevine is no longer compatible with older macOS versions such as OS X 10.9 and 10.10. Only macOS versions 10.11 and above are supported.
