Hi there all...

Can someone tell my why the sam440ep mini it has HDCP??
Is there a way to turn it off on the board?
I have an avermedia live gamer pro which I've connected DVI-HDMI and only see the pass thought due to HDCP warning..

I was hoping to do some HD AmigaOS4.1 in depths and stuff...
But didn't expect to hit the HDCP wall lol

Al.

There is no such thing implemented on any Amigas. You may be running into encrypted data on a device.

OK, just been reading about it on Wikipedia. The first thing I see is that:

...it must not transmit high definition protected video to non-HDCP receivers;

So that is probably your problem. Since the Amiga is not licenced as an authorised device (and never will be - the fees would be crippling), the sending device will not send any high-quality data to it.
