## General infomration

### Prerequisites

* [x] Are you running the latest version?

### Description

When an update for widevine is available I'm informed about this when I'm about to watch Netflix. Because of the large download (and eager family members) I choose to ignore the update. Unfortunately the update is not triggered again until approximately 24hrs later, when I'm just about to watch with the family again... Rinse, repeat.

Is there a way to manually trigger the widevine update?
