Recording from Netflix, Amazon, etc
Posted: Fri Dec 01, 2023 2:24 pm
I found a method that works in Firefox, Edge and Chrome.
First, get a recording app. I like Fonelab (https://www.fonelab.com/screen-recorder/) but EaseUS RecExperts (https://recorder.easeus.com/) also works.
Now, go to settings (under the dropdown at upper right). Search for "accel" -- you should see a toggle for hardware acceleration; turn it off and restart your browser.
When you open Netflix (or whatever), start the video, and open the recorder app, you should be able to record and get screenshots.
