I would like to know if the Screenshot Protection feature can manage the permissions for “Screen recording” within the title (see title, which refers to the behavior of recording images and generating videos for specific computer screen operation interfaces/software windows)

@xxxcys

Thanks for your feedback! At this time we can’t specifically detect screenshots or screen recording attempts, but maybe this will be possible in the future. I’ll discuss the concept with our team.

Unfortunately it may be impossible to detect/report screen recording due to how Windows works at this time, so instead we just block all of it.

所以不能阻止OBS这种软件对窗口进行捕获吗？（我试了一下，确实不能阻止）

If you turn on our “Screenshot Protection” you are saying OBS can still work OK? Are you sure this feature is turned on in our software? Right click our icon in the bottom right notification area in the Windows OS.

是的，我很确定我确实启用了屏幕截图保护。实际上，OBS里面，关于整个“显示屏捕获”确实失效了，效果是显示屏捕获的内容是黑屏，但“窗口捕获”依然可以工作，依然可以捕获到想要捕获的对应程序的窗口画面。

Thanks. So it sounds like the entire screen is black, however if you choose a specific window in OBS it’s not black (not protected). We will investigate and see if we can recreate/solve this issue. Thank you for taking the time to report this problem so we can improve.

Am I the only one who sees this as the Chinese language, what’s going on? 🙄

No, you are not the only person who sees Chinese. The person posted in their language. I then used a translator to translate and respond in English.

OK cool, thanks for me letting me know. I thought I was going crazy. 😂
