You will need to install `widevine` and set `qt.args` to point to it.
QT5.9 currently only supports widevine up to Chrome version 61.
+
On Arch, simply install `qt5-webengine-widevine` from the AUR and run:
+
----
:set qt.args '["ppapi-widevine-path=/usr/lib/qt/plugins/ppapi/libwidevinecdmadapter.so"]'
:restart
----
+
For other distributions, download the chromium tarball and widevine-cdm zip from
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qt5-webengine-widevine/[the AUR page],
extract `libwidevinecdmadapter.so` and `libwidevinecdm.so` files, respectively,
and move them to the `ppapi` plugin directory in your QT library directory (create it if it does not exist).
+
Lastly, set your `qt.args` to point to that directory and restart qutebrowser:
+
----
:set qt.args '["ppapi-widevine-path=/usr/lib64/qt5/plugins/ppapi/libwidevinecdmadapter.so"]'
