Does this work on Arch's version of Chrome as well? Are additional package installations required?

It should work out-of-the-box in Chrome, but Chromium doesn't come with the PPAPI plugin for EME. I don't know how feasible it is to get that plugin working in Chromium. For the Pepper Flash plugin, it's as simple as dropping the shared object into the directory and adding 2 cli flags.
There would be little point in getting it to work with Chromium anyway. Why would you care if you're using an open source browser if you're gonna add a propietary DRM plugin onto it? Just pick Chrome and avoid the hastle. That is, after all, what Chrome is: Chromium + propietary addons (+ some rebranding). -- Hugo Osvaldo Barrera A: Because we read from top to bottom, left to right.
