I wonder how it will work. The article sounds like it just overrides the print screen button. But what about screen recording apps like OBS? Seems like Teams would need to inject some code deep into the os to block that.
- hu3 1y agoit's probably going to be some DRM codec protection similar to Netflix where video goes black for screenshots.
- Gabrys1 1y agoOn Android, the OS exposes an API allowing the app to control whether it's visible on the screenshot and screen capturing tools (like screen mirroring to your TV). If the app disallowes screenshots (it's called FLAG_SECURE) your screenshot/stream will have a black rectangle instead of the app image. This is usually requested by bank apps and paid content apps like Netflix. I assume there are provisions for the same thing in all the other supported systems. Everyone without such support will get no video on the affected meetings.
- no_time 1y agoWindows does have an API for this that is not tied to the DRM protected video path I think. My guess comes from the fact that KeepassXC turns black/totally transparent when viewed through a VNC server on windows. Edit: here it is https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-setwindowdisplayaffinity https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/...
