just so I understand the steps correctly I should:

run efistudio
add device graphics (for me 9800 GTX+)
then add ethernet
take the combined hex code and add it to my com.apple.boot.plist in /Extra

exactly


with this method did you edit your dsdt for LAN0?


no i didn't edit m dsdt for the reason my ethernet was built-in and was en0 to begin with but i still was getting that drm error

Hi Airwalk,
I had a similar situation, where my two LAN ports were recognized as en1 and en2 (no en0), so I was having trouble getting things to work also. However, I don't have a wireless card... so I'm not sure if this will help you, but...

In order to get one of my LAN ports recognized as en0, I backed up and deleted these files:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist

Then I rebooted with an ethernet cable plugged in to the port I wanted to use... and it was recognized as en0!
Finally, I added ethernet to my EFI string, following the directions above, rebooted again, and
Netflix works!
Thanks everyone.

thanks for the idea.

you guys are the best!!!!

I got it to work. So this is what was done to correct the issue.

Like you instructed I deleted the files :

/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist


I also removed the wireless card to remove and differences.

I was then able to get my ethernet ports so show as en0 and en1
I added the strings using efi studio as mentioned above.

and netflix watch now works without any DRM errors.

Then I shutdown and installed my airport card again and it assumed the name en2 and netflix still works

thanks all for the help

Thanks for posting your steps! However, I followed the instructions and still can't get Netflix to work. Could you post your com.apple.boot.plist so that I can see where I went wrong?

I used EFI Studio 1.1.

Thanks,

Bruno

Nevermind, it does work; I had been booting off the wrong disk. Thanks again for the fix,

Netflix Snow Leopard DRM Error Work Around
 
I have an Acer Aspire One D-250 with Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and I was also getting the DRM 8152 error. I think the main cause was that I have no working ethernet on board and there is no fix for it, so there was no way to set en0 to a built in ethernet setting. The way I got around this was to trick Netflix into thinking I was visiting with a regular PC instead of a hackintosh. I did this by simply changing my browser's User Agent. If your using Safari go here http://www.onedigitallife.com/2005/0...is-user-agent/
follow the instructions and under the develop menu item chose Firefox 3.53 window's version. If your using firefox mac version go here http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/
follow the instructions and install a User Agent xml file so you can access a list of User Agents and then they will be come available to chose from under the Tools menu item. Once you are able to mask your browser's true identity you should be able to fool Netflix into thinking your just regular PC and it will play movies instantly now. Don't forget to install Silverlight first and foremost.
