I haven’t had that experience when the same mechanisms were used to prevent screen sharing streaming video.

I just fired up a linux vm, and hit play.

If this thing actually breaks machines that don’t have a properly configured hdcp chain, it’ll create insane “this meeting is broken” debugging scenarios.

Also, hdcp is trivially bypassed these days (if, for some reason a camera phone recording of the damning meeting isn’t enough, and a perfect digital copy is needed…)

Old versions of it.
