I use SkyGo to watch TV (Sky) in my office, and I have always known that it won't play anything when Hybrid is loaded as it reports that "software capable of capturing video is running"...
I accepted this one of those things.. And in truth, its frustrating as what I am doing with Hybrid has nothing to do with Sky.. I am only using it to compress some videos, but I can understand that Skys software could detect this and this as suspicious. So I just lived with it and encoded at times when I am not watching Sky.
I just had reason to use "Handbrake" and was surprised to see that Sky did not report an a problem when this was doing its thing, even thought it was doing almost exact the same thing that I use Hybrid for.. So I just thought it was worth posting here incase anyone has any thoughts as to possible solutions/workarounds to this?
I am not using Hybrid to do do anything relating to Sky or TV.. I am simply encoding some personal videos at the same time as I am watching TV..
Anyone aware of this limitation? And perhaps know of a way to fix it?
