<![CDATA[How to play Netfix movies on Opera In Ubuntu 16.04]]>Is there an official guide of how to play Netflix on Linux using the Opera browser.

I read an announcement that said the new Opera has built in support for Netflix under Linux.

Environment is:

Ubuntu 16.04
Opera version 44.0.2510.857

Thanks in advance for anyone who can provide steps that work or a link to steps that works.

Also, if there isn't support for Netflix yet, that information would be helpful also. I can stop looking for now and check back in some months.

See threads about H.264 as far as the codecs.
