DRM streaming playback issues with NVIDIA-OPEN-DKMS drivers

I have a shared skyshowtime plan with my partner and I wanted to watch it on my laptop (NVIDIA RTX 3050 ONLY, no iGPU) but every time i load the website it gets stuck at a "something went wrong" error page.
I've put nvidia-drm.modeset=1 in my cmdline but it didn't change anything.
Any ideas ?
I've also tried to play it back using chromium but it gives me the same result.

Re: DRM streaming playback issues with NVIDIA-OPEN-DKMS drivers

nvidia-drm.modeset=1 is default and hardly the problem (I assume youtube works?) and neither is probably nvidia
"load the website" - which url? Is that before or after login? The video playback or even just the library?
("something went wrong" is really the most idiotic and pointless error message any service could ever issue…)
