![]() Also, video resolution is limited to 720p, and that’s not going to change for the desktop version. ![]() ![]() Occasionally, it might fail to record a program, in which case you’ll need to re-add it to your queue and start again. PlayOn’s desktop software still has some drawbacks. ![]() Even without Flash installed, I haven’t run into any major issues recording video from Netflix, CBS All Access, Peacock, and Disney+. Adobe discontinued Flash at the end of 2020, and PlayOn stopped bundling the software in a recent update. There was no way to prevent PlayOn from installing Flash, so using the software meant opening yourself to potential security vulnerabilities.įortunately, that’s no longer the case. Until last month, PlayOn came bundled with Adobe Flash, which some streaming services used to rely on for web playback. PlayOn’s Windows software lets you build a queue of recordings, then downloads them in the background. For any movie or TV show, you can press a record button to add the video to your DVR queue, and PlayOn will quietly run in the background, recording each video as an MP4 file on your hard drive. After installing the app, you enter the logins for all your streaming subscriptions, then use PlayOn’s menu to navigate their catalog. If you have a desktop PC that runs Windows, I’d suggest using PlayOn’s desktop software, which has a one-time cost of $70 (and is often on sale for less).
