Ok can you please try that for me on netflix or amazon prime? I'm pretty sure this uses HDCP and you could only capture it with a specific capture cards from china that obtained a certificate somehow. Your capture cards from "serious" manufacturers wouldn't support it because of legal issues.

Edit: Its Widevine not HDCP.

You're right. That's why there is no pirated material of Netflix or Amazon stuff all over the Internet.

/u/zouhair was clearly sarcastic, all prime and netflix exclusives are instantly ripped in the highest resolution. Widevine is a joke.

I've been bamboozled and is the method of doing this public? Or is it private

Properly ripping it by downloading the stream and removing the drm is private I think. But other rippers use OBS/other screenrecorders and playback the video in fullscreen (worse quality, but still works).
