Videos with DRM protected content can be viewed only when the browser has an extension for that, for example Googles Widevine extension. With Ubuntu I was not able to simply install the extension within the brave browser and could not see the content.

Following this instruction helped me:

  • Create a Symlink: sudo ln -s /opt/google/chrome/WidevineCdm /opt/brave.com/brave/WidevineCdm
  • Enable the extension under brave://settings/extensions
  • Restart the browser
