Since the Widevine support is available for Raspbian I'm able to watch Netflix and Amazon Prime Video on the Raspberry Pi just using the Chromium Browser.
I have, however, a strange behaviour when trying to browse the Amazon Prime Video Webpage when suddenly the whole system just freezes and only hard reboot (unplugging power) will reset the system. This happens every time. I can open the Page, see the Movies and then the whole system just freezes.
Netflix, youtube is working fine.
Has anyone else ever experienced this behaviour?
Raspbian is updated and upgraded.
I can confirm this issue. Opening Prime Video with Chromium causes the page to freeze. I am running Raspberry Pi OS 32 bit with RPi 4 (4 GB RAM). I did install minimal build and then added XFCE desktop.

My Node.js project utilizes CEC control and VLC where the app turns on the TV and chooses the HDMI port that the VLC video stream will be viewed on at a scheduled time.
Everything worked on Buster except that too many indeterminate crashes with segmentation faults occur with cec-client.
Since I am nearing a 'production' release, I thought it best to upgrade the OS to Bullseye and find a cec-client replacement. I found cec-ctl and made it asynchronous - ctl-cec works perfectly, everytime, no crashes. BUT, now VLC does not render anything, not even a black screen. Doing a 'ps' command during a time that a video should be playing, I can see that VLC is running.
What I tried: It turns out that changing the /boot/config.txt dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d (Buster) to dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d (Bullseye) causes the problem. The Buster version of dtoverlay seems to be required for VLC to run, and The Bullseye version of dtoverlay is required for a /dev/cec0 to be created and used by ctl-cec.
All I can see from my inexperienced view is mutual exclusivity, but this doesn't feel like this is the final answer. Using both dtoverlay version (Buster/Bullseye) will brick the pi (speaking from the very recent experience of one not well-versed in dtoverlays).
I also tried: I Googled this problem to the extent of my search skills and have not been able to resolve this problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Raspbian OS: Bullseye (Desktop)
Raspberry Pi 3 B+
App: Node.js based with ability to make config changes and set schedules via an external browser within the LAN.
The solution for my project, after days of Googling, turned out to be TOO simple (found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinuxarm/comments/lg4z5u/no_hdmi_audio_via_alsa_on_raspberry_pi_400/):
sudo apt install pulseaudio
along with:
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
VLC and cec-ctl now work together perfectly on Raspberry Pi 3B+/Bullseye
I installed "onboard" as a virtual keyboard on the system. It looked much nicer and more useful than matchbox. I went into the settings and chose the auto open option when I edit the post. after that i restarted my raspberry pi. As it didn't come on automatically, I couldn't run it from the terminal or the menu normally. The error I get when I try to run it from terminal
Hej blackmamba,
I had the same issue with the on screen keyboard florence. After I installed at-spi2-core, it didn't crash anymore, though i could not get it to open automatically.
So I tried installing onboard and everything worked quiet well. Might be a hint..
regards, jarvis

I am facing problem to flash android 6.1 or android 8.0 img file.
I follow orange pi user manual instruction but at last I download SMART PHONE FLASH TOOL and trying to flash .img file but when I click download button it stuck and nothing happen.
I also installed driver for win7 64 bit.
and also connect Laptop and Orange pi using USB Data Cable.
Please help me.
Orange Pi version - 4G IoT
SD Card - Class 10, A1, 16GB

SD card is not necessary, you can flash it to board internal storage.
To get it working you need to press and hold power button for 1-2 seconds, after board was connected to PC
I using AMD processor. I have installed everything related to eclipse perfectly. But I'm unable to start the emulator. program is hang and keep waiting for adb forever. The same issue in android studio also. Please give a solution.
I'm using a Android Studio on an HP x360, which is a nice little laptop but has a puny processor:). I spent ages getting the Intel Hax virtual machine thingy installed on my machine, as well as configuring bios (which I found AVAST blocked changes to, so had to uninstall it).
After probably hours this week (I'm new to Android) waiting for the emulator to do it's thing, start up, load program, and eat memory, I decided to plug in my phone (Moto-e).
This has made a massive improvement! Only takes a minute to compile and run now! You also have piece of mind that your app will run in the real world.
So as a newb to Android, I'd say don't bother with the emulator.... plug a real device in.
See here for setting up HAXM, if you have trouble installing, it may be antivirus etc blocking it....
Intel HAXM
All the best.

I have been trying to get pianobar working on my Raspberry Pi. I built version 2013.05.19-dev from Github and it works when I have /etc/libao.conf default_driver=alsa. The problem is that this gives horrible quality audio. I followed the instructions for installing PulseAudio and MPD on dbader's blog. Now when I set default_driver=pulse, pianobar tells me /!\ Cannot open audio device. I have been looking for a solution to this so any tips or help would be great!
