You may get an error while trying to watch some videos using streaming apps, as shown below.
This message shows when you try to play a DRM video. DRM videos are created to prevent unauthorized redistribution of digital media by embedding a code within the video file that lets it be viewed only on authorized phones, tablets and other devices that are locked down by the manufacturer.
Since BlueStacks is not a physical Android phone but a virtual device, streaming apps do not allow users to watch DRM videos on BlueStacks 5.
You may contact the support team of the streaming app for further assistance on this matter.
Thank you for choosing BlueStacks 5. We hope you enjoy using it. Happy Gaming!
