I guess at that point we could do it the old fashioned way by pointing a camera at the screen. Or, I guess, a more professional approach based on external recording.

Wonder if you could train a neural net to take camera recordings and basically reconstitute the original. For a given setup, the distortions should be pretty consistent.
I might be recalling it wrong,but I remember reading that there was some old hardware that refused to record protected TV/Movies probably a VCR or a DVR.
Camera manufacturers can easily refuse to record a stream of they detect it is protected, may be via watermarks or other sidechannel.
Old VCRs looked for a hidden signal that rental videos put out so you couldn't record them. But it was easy to block with a cheap device that you put in the middle.
