In some implementations, a computing device can notify a media application when a screen recording may be in progress. For example, the computing device can be configured to send media content provided by the media application for presentation on the display of the computing device to a second destination (e.g., a file, a remote playback device, a remote recording device, etc.) that may result in a recording of the display screen of the computing device. To allow the media application an opportunity to protect the media content from unauthorized recording, the computing device can notify the media application that the media content being sent to the second destination may be recorded. In response to receiving the notification, the media application can modify the presentation of the media content to prevent or downgrade any recording that may be performed.
