Sorry haven't been messing with it for a minute
It's working well for me now that I went through all of that. HW Acceleration is working, too

I want to use Chrome Capture for Channels to be able to record PBS News Hour. The browser window presents a blue background with a large white start button that needs to be clicked on. Is there a way to send a mouse click or keyboard to the browser? Or is there some other way to get past this? Sorry details are light - I was observing this - I didn't setup the channel.
There are multiple better ways to get PBS working . Check the forums. Also newshour usually posts on YouTube but yes it's possible if you look at my code and chat gpt can figure it out for you
PBS via container is currently broken. Probably will be fixed soon, but it's a moving target.
Thanks for responses. We decided to train the elderly user on the Apple TV PBS app - it has the previous day's News Hour with just a short commercial at the beginning. We're coming off 20 years on Tivo/Cablecard.
That's kind of surprising. Do they use DRM or what's the hangup?
They changed the API, the PBS container is fixed now.
What's the process for getting it to work can you link the post?

Anyone know how to set up Chrome Capture to record closed captions by default on some channels? Today I set up a recording on the Paramount Network and manually sat at my headless PC trying to trigger the CC button but couldn't figure it out. After futzing around and then plugging in a monitor directly, it turns out that the Spectrum UI was disabled somehow during the recording. I opened a new tab and the CC button appeared right away when I used the mouse. How can I make it where the menu is available for the recording or set it up to auto launch using the captions next time?
Use my code and chat gpt and make it mouse click like other sections for the watch.spectrum url for cc section
how can i install this???

I am trying to run this on a 2018 Mac mini with a quad core i3 running at 3.6ghz and I am getting a jittery picture like it's not at full 30 or 60 fps. Plus I am getting random pauses and then speed ups in the video.
Is this Mac just to weak to run chrome capture?
Also the picture does not fill the screen. Mini is set to 1080P.
chrome capture is 30fps, though it often appears to be 60 and it looks pretty decent for 30fps in most applications even sports. The stuttering/lag is due to low cores. you need 8 threads to really make it work well, though 6 threads might work in some cases. Modern i3 work well but 2018 is too old for i3. I bought an i7 dell 7th gen i7 on ebay for 40 bucks and it works well.
well that is too bad. Thought I had my NBC Universal issue solved. Not really worth me buying another computer. My only more powerful Mac is an M1 Mac mini, but I use that for work and don't feel comfortable having it running Chrome in the background.
Can u post the Dell info?? Also what I7 are u running as I have an I5-8500 in an HP G4 and was thinking of uping the CPU To maybe help the NBC stuff
