run a task at any time, even when my laptop is hibernatingĬapturing streaming video despite the overlay issue can be overcome by running the video inside Windows Sandbox.capture the correct window in the OBS recording session.play the video in full screen mode and maximize the Windows Sandbox window.run the Windows Sandbox from an AutoIt script.ensure the right channel is playing on the streaming service.

A video overlay is invisible to Windows capture programs because it is handled by a special video hardware streaming video running in the browser is not easy to capture – The problem is that often these players use video overlay for faster, smoother playback of the movie.I have a personal need for an easy way to make a recording of interesting programs and watch them at my convenience. My motivation: show that I can do this (using AutoIt, OBS, Windows Task Scheduler an Windows Sandbox) and create a way around the limitation of my current TV provider (Ziggo in The Netherlands) that does not support recording programs any longer and offers on demand viewing for only a limited number of channels. My objective: create a mechanism for recording streaming video on my Windows laptop on a preprogrammed timestamp and channel.
