HDCP Compliant?

[richardh]

Hi all,

Has anyone ever coded a routine to determine if system is HDCP compliant?
I couldn't find a WMI call to determine HDCP status.

Thanks,

You might be able to use dotNet support in WinBatch to determine whether a connector can engage the High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection:

Sorry it appears the link I previously posted is only available for Silverlight. The only other method I could find would be to make a series of DllCalls to the Output Protection Manager:

This appears to be no easy feat.

Thanks D

Another fun quest... trying to figuring out something I assumed would be fairly simple... lol

Maybe check this out...

This automated test runs Certified Output Protection Protocol (COPP) commands to test display drivers for COPP compatibility.

There are three assertions for this test. The display driver must support:
ââ,¬Â¢ COPP driver interfaces.
ââ,¬Â¢ Content Generation Management System Analog (CGMS-A) and analog protection support (APS)
ââ,¬Â¢ High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP).
