To explain further, the bit you're missing is:

"The most important change in this release is obviously the
implementation of Flash DRM interface however, Pepper Flash that's
bundled with Google Chrome has the DRM-related code disabled on Linux so
to use this, you need to extract Pepper Flash from Chrome OS, and that's
a pretty tedious process (instructions available here).

Furthermore, to get the Flash DRM interface to work, you must add
"enable_3d = 1" to the freshwrapper.conf file or else you'll get a black
video, even on non-DRM content."
