How the tables have turned.

Sony won the case against Universal that allowed people to record TV shows with their VCR. I wonder how they'd feel if I pointed OBS at their streams.

Does OBS even work with all the DRM they've put on things? I thought that's the whole point why it's there, to keep people from screen capturing or restreaming videos

Probably not without some tinkering, but DRM can always be defeated.

It may not work directly, but there's always a way to misdirect it, like a vm!

Android smart TV can use some foss screen capture apps while being undetected by PlayStation, of course there's trouble with sound capture, but since tv is yours, it can be bypassed
