Error S7336 trying watching Netflix on Safari after Big Sur upgrade

Hey there!

I just found out that my monitor is Dell P2719H has DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 1.4 which only support HDCP on HDMI port.

After a few weeks struggled with this same issue I have switched from the DisplayPort to HDMI and it worked well.

So check which ports your monitor is HDCP supported.

I know it sound kinda stupid at first but I hope this will meet your situation. ;)

Thanks~

I am also using Dell monitor, but mine is P2314H. It is connected to my MBP via VGA, so yes, it most likely does not support HDCP.

But, the funny thing is that the issue I have is happening only when using Safari. When the Netflix page is loaded on Chrome, it does not matter on which screen I want to watch the content - it works! But with Safari, it works only if I disconnect the secondary screen. So it is either not related to HDCP, or Chrome somehow manages to override the problem.

I upgraded to Big Sur and had no issue with Netflix. However, after uninstalling Adobe Flash (rightly or wrongly), I have a problem watching Netflix. After a few seconds of watching a film/series, I get a Netflix Error S7336 message.

I have also experienced this after a while watching Netflix fullscreen on Safari. However, this problem isn't just constrained to using external displays. Safari has been updated several times in the past 6 months. Since then, I've had issues with watching Youtube, Netflix, and fullscreen videos through Safari. Ive experienced Screen flickering on Safari when fullscreen as well. Seems like Safari isn't optimized for older macs right now.

I have the very same problem after I installed macOS Big Sur update on my MacBook – Netflix stopped playing on my Mac (error S7336) connected to the projector via HDMI cable (all worked fine before though). All works fine with Chrome (despite I am not using it much). I think we all should wait reaction of Apple developers?

So it means if you have a Mac mini then forget about watching Netflix on Safari. Is that correct or there is a solution for mac mini users where you have no built-in screen?! I do not prefer to use Chrome, however, I need to.

I met this problem too. Although I disconnected every external screen, closed and opened Safari again, and I even restarted my Mac, it still hasn't worked. Netflix works when I use many other browsers but not Safari. Please help me to solve this. Thank you

Don't blame APPLE, blame NETFLIX. Maybe Netflix wants us to cancel our subscription, and instead spend it on additional APPLETV+ content? @NETFLIX?

I'm on my MacBook Air and not using an external screen but getting the same error message. 🙃

Same, I have this issue and still not sure how to fix it because I prefer to use Friendly Streaming for Netflix

exactly same experience here 😒

Thank you kind internet guy, that worked for me too. :)

Me too!

I`m having the same problem right now. I have just upgraded the last version of big sure and I got the same error.
