Why You Can’t Screen Record Netflix! | Secret Tech Behind the Scenes | DRM Explained

[@motivation_hubPJ]

Even if your os provides all the apis to not allow recording the content you can always use a lightweight virtual VM and run the browser and keep screen - recording the same . The os never knows because its running on virtual box

Hi. Good query. But have you tried running Netflix inside a VM? I don’t think Netflix will allow the content to be played. Or even if does, it might restrict the video quality. However, need to give it a try to know how exactly it works. Good point 😇

[@AtithiKumarSingh]

As per I know by default also in non apple device Netflix restricts video quality when played in browser ​@@preetam.keshari

Can't i intercept the drm key using proxy ?? I might have to still to know the algorithm but I think we can get the drm decryption key

[@preetam.keshari]

Hi. You mean intercepting the DRM key while it’s in transit (via https protocol)?

[@rajatgupta08]

@@preetam.keshari yes

[@rajatgupta08]

@@preetam.keshari I mean it might not show up in network tab but can we do it using proxy interceptor or MITM

[@preetam.keshari]

@@rajatgupta08​​⁠Even if you intercept it.. it will be in encrypted form.. you will need the private key to decrypt it which is not possible to get. Please watch my video on how SSL works.. you will get a better understanding of how this entire encryption process works. Hope that helps😊. Let me know if you have any other questions. Let’s learn together 😊
