Screen recording a rented movie is generally prohibited by digital rights management (DRM) and copyright laws. Renting a movie typically grants you temporary access for personal viewing only, and recording it might fail most of the time.

But it is possible if you still want to capture the rented movies for personal use. 

To capture rented videos from YouTube or other platforms successfully, you need to find a reliable screen recorder first. As a senior user, I used a lot of screen recorders and highly recommended EaseUS Screen Recorder to help you capture movies!

This professional screen recorder provides a special recording mode called Online Video, which can help you capture DRM-protected videos without a black screen effortlessly, including capturing some rented movies. With its aid, you don't need to bypass the protection or change other settings. Below are the detailed steps:

  • Download and launch this screen recorder on your computer
  • Choose the Online Video option on the left sidebar, then select the platform that you want to capture.
  • Next, play the rented video that you want to capture
  • Then, go back to the screen recorder and choose the recording area. Enable the audio recording option if needed
  • When you are ready, click REC to start recording your rented videos

As you can see, you can record the rented movies within a few steps by using EaseUS Screen Recorder. Apart from that, this multi-functional screen recorder also lets you capture live streams or other kinds of videos, and the quality is up to 8K. So, for capturing videos from streaming services, this screen recorder is worth trying.
