Yep, I already covered workarounds that would be possible with preplanning.

If you already do it regularly, then the preplanning is not a big barrier. You already know that you keep getting into situations where something is worth capturing.

HDMI capture with passthrough is $20.

Are you genuinely not reading the comments that you’re replying to?

OP did mot solicit or show that there would be any value in people listing ways that one could circumvent this with preparation.

We all know. You aren’t adding anything to the discussion. Nerds love ignoring the cost of human effort if it gives them an opportunity to show that they know something.

I'm definitely reading the comments. I'm replying to a very specific comment that made a very specific argument.

There are lots of arguments I find convincing for this being effective. But not OP's. OP is saying they already do these recordings regularly, but "preplanning" would stop them? No way. They already did all the necessary preplanning by the time they finished typing their comment.

Preplanning could be meaningful for other people, but not for them and people like them.

I only mentioned price to make it clear that the level of effort to make the purchase falls within the level of effort they have already established.
