Record/image capture on sony bravia android tv, possible ?

by billybibbersen

Firstly I like to say I dont watch TY so I am not planing to record tv shows.

I am using my TV as monitor for nearly everything and I like to take screenshot or even record small videos of gameplay from Nintendo classic mini or PS2.

I have done some research and I can only find app that records show or external hardware like elgato, but I dont have the economy for that kind of hardware. I also did some research on if it was possible to make a raspberry pi a video capture device with a hdmi input but that option is also fair expensive because of a special hdmi to csi-2 bridge chip I would need to import.

I also learn that I could plug a usb stick for extra storage into the tv but it would be unreadable on other devices so I quickly skip that option.

I hope someone have a answer. It is just for a home project to keep my mind sane during these lockdown times. Thanks for your time.

PS. my tv is a KD-55xf9005 running android version 8.0

You can use teamviewer to record from your phone

You are not allowed to record TV Input due to copyright issues, but you can record everything else either with
adb shell screenrecord /sdcard/file.mp4
or with
scrcpy --record file.mp4
