on GitHub

Release of electron 20.0.0-alpha.3 with support for Google Widevine.

⚠️ The v16+ series of Electron for Content Security, labeled wvcus, moves to using the Component Updater Service to handle installation of the Widevine CDM, and has incompatible API updates compared to the previous wvvmp releases.

Known Limitations

• No automatic migration of persisted licenses between CDM system id changes (usually major updates and/or releases fixing vulnerabilities), so any persisted licenses may need to be re-fetched on upgrade
• VMP, and thus persistent licenses, are not supported by the Linux Widevine CDM (requests have the VMP status PLATFORM_UNVERIFIED)
