1. On my mac I've installed some apps like Rewind which constantly record the screen.
2. I go to Netflix to watch something, screen is black.
3. "Why don't you turn off Rewind?" I did. Still black.
4. "Why don't you restart control center?" I did.
5. "Why don't you turn off permissions for ALL apps to record your screen?" I did.
6. "Did you turn off and on the browser?" I did.
7."Did you try a different browser?" I did, still black.
8."Did you turn off hardware acceleration?" That works but the browser gets slow so I don't want to do that.
9. So literally my problem is: there's some apple bug where I CAN'T watch even though I'm NOT recording my screen.
10. So fuck it. How is it that no hacker on hackernews by now has figured out how to nuke this DRM shit at the root? (I'm talking system level) Anyone know of anything?
1. Open a tab in Safari and go to the Netflix site.
2. Go to the Safari menu and select Settings for this Website.
3. In the pop up window select Auto-Play and Allow All Auto Play.
Try again..
Btw, you won't find any drm remove/switch off switches that are publicly known. To be able to show content is a right granted to you by the content delivery, and they want to see if you can do it safely, seen from the perspective of delivery. So you need to adhere to the standards
