.To enable *widevine* plugin

Fedora's _chromium_ package is built to support the *widevine* plugin (but does not include it). 

. Copy `libwidevinecdm.so` and `libwidevinecdmadapter.so` from the Google Chrome package into `/usr/lib64/chromium-plugins`.

. Restart Chromium. You can see *Widevine Content Decryption Module* in *chrome://flags*.

.Using the *Pepper Plugin Application Programming Interface (PPAPI)* flash plugin

. Click the following link to download the flash plugin: link:https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/[get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions].

. Select *Linux 64-bit* and then *FP 22.0* (or later) for *Linux 64-bit(.tar.gz)-PPAPI*. You will then have `flash_player_ppapi_linux.x86_64.tar.gz`.

. Unpack the tar into `/usr/lib64/chromium-browser/PepperFlash/`.

. Restart chromium. You can see *Adobe Flash Player* in *chrome://plugins*.

NOTE: To enable speech synthesis support, pass the `--enable-speech-dispatcher` flag to `chromium-browser`.
