Thank you so much bro. You have no idea how helpful this is. I needed this bad to get a recording for work, and I was about ready to give up when I came across your video. Not only is it super helpful, but its concise, and straight to the point. This is what YouTube needs man. You're the GOAT

Thank you for this! Such a relief to find someone who doesn't need to ramble for 15+ minutes for such a simple fix. :)

Thank you so much. This video needs to be on the top because I have tried everything, and this is literally the only thing that worked 🎉😁

You don't understand. I was searching for HOURS for an answer and almost gave up. I desperately needed this to work. Thank you so much kind

I just needed to record my elementary school choir performance that was on the news, and a blacked out screen was preventing me from sharing it with the parents! Simple home movie-library-type recordings that used to be easily done on a VCR now takes quite a bit of work around. Thank you for a relatively easy fix!

Yeah I know that his video is 1 year old but you're the first video I've found to solve my dilemma on this black screen. So simple but genius. Straight to the point in 1:30 minutes.

Oh Cool, it actually works! The same procedure of disabling hardware acceleration applies to the Microsoft Edge browser.. The user setting interface is not the same, but I figured it out. My recording app is OBS Studio. Thank you so much for the tip. A footnote here as many streaming services tried to block the recording. It's not illegal to record anything on the web or TV providers, it is to share and/or broadcast/webcast the copyrighted content without permission though. Any personal private use is perfectly legal. The same issues happened decades ago with the introduction of the VCR. BTW on Microsoft Edge, we can display 1080P from many streaming sources. (On Firefox most were not blocked, but like on Chrome, we can only see a max of 720P resolution)

Well done friend! Grateful for your guidance on how to screen-record in first-party websites. Your instructions were clear, straightforward, and to the point, which made the process as simple as finding the 'snooze' button on a Monday morning alarm. Thank you for taking the time to instruct us! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have a very personal and specific reason for wanting this. A documentary was made, and my husband was the feature of it. It ended up winning a few awards, so yeah, it has this block. While it was being filmed, he was in chemo, so the producers thought I was ck blocking his interviews. That wasn't at all true. He was so sick that he'd ask me, even plead with me to screen all of his calls and tell them no. They didn't even put him in the credits, but for some reason put me in, and I think that was just some weird smack, because they used historic footage. The step and repeat was weird for us. Fans line up for him alone. I just want to get some of the old footage they found of him from the 80's, that we could never get. Thanks, respect.

You are a lifesaver!!!! I've scoured the internet for everything and all I got was seedy results. All that time wasted searching for useless information when the answer was staring me in the face! Thank you so so much for this, I needed HD clips for my videos and you saved the day!

[ingridxoxo]

Omg thank you so much for this video I needed it so I could make edits. So many other videos want you to download all this sketchy stuff when it's so simple. I appreciate that you shared it with us!!!!

[ymoridi]

This is the only solution. Thanks a lot man, neither NVIDIA nor Reddit was able to solve the issue. Well done, thanks for sharing!

[gamejoker]

Thank you so much! I just need seconds long clips for my video talking about the show. I greatly appreciate this! Thank you!

[SofaandChill]

Dude, after all of the shit people say to do, you come along with the easiest way to do it! Absolute legend!

[kashu]

Thank you! Totally expected this to be one of those videos where you have to download something that just ends up being malware, but this was so easy to do in chrome, and it worked! I was so surprised! Thanks for this fix!

[FireBirdPhoenixProductions]

OMFG THANK PROTECT THIS VIDEO AND THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS!!!!

[RonnieBoyKids]

Genius!! I'm gonna be on a tv show next week and wanted to record from a site that was blocking screen records, and now it works! Thx bro!

[bwade]

Thank you so much! This is a game changer! Simple, concise and straight to the point. Thank you 1000x

[BIackstinG]

god bless you sir! I'm a vfx artist that has work on some mainstream films and shows for and for the last couple of years the company that I worked with didn't give me the samples of what I did to add to my demo, so the only option I had was take my work from the streaming service and they were all coming black. thank you for this!!

[bodyspeaksbetter]

Thank you so much for this. I need clips from some of the reality shows for Body Language Analysis for my Youtube and Instagram channel. This really helped me. I tried the same on Brave and it worked too.
