I downloaded a TV episode in HD but when I tried to play it on my (brand new) Samsung Monitor, it told me that the TV doesn't have HDCP. The Samsung monitor I have does have HDCP so what's the problem? In addition, The HDMI I bought to connect from my Macbook pro to my monitor was from the Apple store I assume that isn't the reason.
Info:
MacBook Pro
Where do we stand on that whole issue, Mac OSX is still not HDCP compatible, software and hardware wise?
I have add a pc for HTPC for more than 2 years, and I have always been able to play bluray on it... I am thinking of switching to mac to do that... either putting the mac pro close enough to the TV or buying a mac mini to do the job...
I already own a bluray player... thinking of buying an external USB case 5.25" or maybe e-stata and to use it that way to play blurays... (hollywood blurays...)
I have a relatively new 1.7 GHz Intel Core i5 MacBook Air, purchased in August of last year. Just recently it started giving me the HDCP error when I tried to play HD TV shows downloaded from iTunes. Given the capability of the display (1440 x 900) this shouldn't be a problem and like I said, I've never had this issue until very recently. I have tried downloading both 720p and 1080p versions of the videos and neither will play for more than a few seconds before the warning appears.
I am not plugging my MacBook Air into an external display. In fact, when I play the videos on my Apple TV v2 (both streaming from my machine and via iCloud directly) they play just fine. I have the lastest EFI firmware installed on my machine as well as all other software updates. I have checked to make sure there are not any partial downloads that could be causing a problem. The error also appears if I try to open the content with Quicktime.
Info:
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.4), iTunes
I have a unibody macbook connect to Apple LED cinema display, and using VIsta to play Blu-Ray disc using FastMac external Slim drive and PowerDVD, but cannot play content due to HDCP non-compliant display. I have heard so many people said LED can support HDCP through DisplayPort, but appear to be not the case. Using AnyDVD HD can by-pass this, but that is really not the ideal solution for me. Anyone can get Blu-ray to play on Vista on a LED display?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am aware that Sony (PS3) encodes their signal with "HDCP" and the older cinema displays are not able to read that as a direct signal into the monitor (the new ones are, but thats not what I have. I bought mine with my PowerMac G5 days before they switched to the Intel based Mac Pro's). My question to all of you is is there any kind of converter box or unit I can purchase that would let my 20" ACD display a picture encoded with Sony's "HDCP" signal?
View 1 Replies View Relatedwith the new Mac Book Pro Retina (latest software updates) I can't play within iTunes any videos / previews. "Missing HCDP support of the display" stated, but no external monitor attached. ReInstalled everything, still the same issue. I can hear the sound, but can't see any picture and the computer freezes for a couple of minutes.

I have a iMac 27" i7 8GB Ram. I installed Windows 7 64 bit. Everything seems to work just fine, except Blu Ray playback.
I have a LG BDRW drive in a 5.25" external caddy. When I try to play a Blu Ray using the bundled CyberLink PowerDVD HD software it says I dont have a HDCP display so it asks me to run a 'BD advisor' tool for more info.
That tells me that both the ATI 4850 card AND the display are not HDCP compliant. I know they must be so whats going on!?
I just got an external monitor for my macbook pro, whenever I try to play movies on it says that they are HDCP protected and my monitor does not support it. It's an Acer P186H, is there any way to authorize it, or get around it?

But whenever I open Mail in 10.6.6 it say's it is not compatible with my operating system. I will most likely bump it back to 10.6.4 but I was wondering if their is any download from apple that could fix this. The app store is alright I can definitely live without it but no with out my Mail.

My question is, is there an external HD that you can read/write on a Mac AND a PC? I know formatting to FAT32 is one way of doing it, but I was just wondering if there are any HDs out there that doesn't need formatting for you to be able to read/write on a Mac and a PC.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently got myself a 22" screen, and having used it for a while feel that it is of a good size to double as a casual TV, so I thought I would look into buying a TV tuner for my Mac. Doing a little research I find the following solutions which are marked as working with the Mac (supporting ATSC):
- EyeTV Hybrid ($149.95) [url=http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/products/hybrid09/product1.en.html[/url]
- VisionTek TV Wonder 650 Combo USB ($99.99) link
- Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950 link
- TubeStick ($99.95) link
I have also come across some receivers which are marked as supporting either only Windows, or Windows and Linux, at a lower price on eBay (see here, such as the
- AnyTV ($59.98) link
In this case I am curious whether anyone has found any software solutions on the Mac that allow these tuners to be used. If you have which "Windows only" tuners were you able to use and what software did you use?
