Title: NPAPI plugins don't work on Chrome version 42 and higher
Post by: pittnuma on July 15, 2015, 01:21:52 AM

Hi,

Is D-Link working on a resolution to this?

NPAPI plugins don't work on Chrome version 42 and higher, it is plastered all over Chrome that they are going to remove support. Will this mean all Dlink cameras will stop working with Chrome?

For the 320L NAS - DLink have already created a Universal Media Player that replaces Java

see my comment http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=62985.msg256522#msg256522 (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=62985.msg256522#msg256522)

and you can enable NPAPI in Chrome

Enabling NPAPI in Chrome Version 42 and later
As of Chrome Version 42, an additional configuration step is required to continue using NPAPI plugins.

In your URL bar, enter:
chrome://flags/#enable-npapi
Click the Enable link for the Enable NPAPI configuration option.
Click the Relaunch button that now appears at the bottom of the configuration page.

but if my memory serves me well Chrome will remove any NPAPI support on later version.

Chrome updated itself to the latest Version 45.0.2454.85
and now it no longer has NPAPI option to enable.
So without Java support or the option to turn on Npapi
how do we run D-Link cameras

Java is no longer supported on D-link cameras anymore. D-Link Universal Media Player plug-in needs to be installed:
