Thanks, @Pablo-J-Rogina for your reply.
Here I want to mention that I am not using Chromium,
And the below components are already installed in the environment.

Proprietary Codecs ..................... yes
nss .................................................... yes
ffmpeg ............................................ yes

I am using Qt WebEngine 5.12.4
I am running a simple browser example as shown below.
Below is the error I am getting.

Qt WebEngine is a "wrapper" for Chromium.

And @Pablo-J-Rogina's link is about Netflix support on Qt WebEngine.

You need the Widevine plugin, as described in @Pablo-J-Rogina's link.

I am running a simple browser example as shown below.

You must run chrome://components from Google Chrome, not from a Qt WebEngine browser.

Use Google Chrome to download the plugin and then transfer the plugin to Qt WebEngine.

(Tip: Google Chrome is not Chromium. Google Chrome adds a lot of things to Chromium).

Thank you @JKSH for you reply,
Below picture is from raspbian OS-based chromium browser,
In that, I am not able to find any component named Widevine CDM.

Any other way to figure out the issue?

You'll need to find a way to install the plugin on Raspbian.
