mostly work (in combination with media.gmp-widevinecdm.enabled/media.gmp-widevinecdm.visible keys), but Firefox immediately deletes the files, then it can't find the cdm because it just deleted it. So that is the part that has to be located and patched.
The bug that I'm talking about is explained here :
For some reason Firefox could try to remove files in 1.4.8.885 directory. To prevent that you may remove write bit from directory permissions (chmod a-w 1.4.8.885), and also make the directory owned by root user.). So,it has never been fixed...

It should be, but somebody would have to patch Firefox to enable Widevine. Neither me nor arrowd (who worked on the ports) are going to do it.
Plus,can you give a look here ?
