Screenshot of protected app

[juzernejm]

Hi
I'm using an app that streams tv channels on my mac. When I tried to take a screenshot, it didn't work:
The app window doesn't appear on the screenshot. I didn't knew there was such a thing (protection).
I tried to google on how to fix this, but found nothing.
I also tried OBS to do a recording but the app just gives you an error and stops working until you close the screen-capture app.
Is there any way to bypass this restriction?

Thanks

It’s DRM protected. There are lots of tricks to bypass. YMMV.

I disabled Hardware Acceleration on Chrome on my M1 MacBook Air, and now I can take screencaps from video streaming sites on it again!

The problem is that these are not sreams that I see through a browser.. It's an app (called Sky Go).Thanks @ Bigwaff.. I'll take a look n let you know.
