	What is HDCP? - A Word Definition From the Webopedia Computer Dictionary
		HDCP encrypts the transmission of digital content between the video source, or transmitter -- such as a computer, DVD player or set-top box -- and the digital display, or receiver -- such as a monitor, television or projector.
		HDCP is not designed to prevent copying or recording of digital content but to protect the integrity of content as it is being transmitted.
		Implementation of HDCP requires a license obtainable from the Digital Content Protection, LLC, which then issues a set of unique secret device keys to all authorized devices.

	Upcoming HDCP Issues - Beyond3D Forum
		HDCP (High Definition Content Protection) has been a somewhat thorny issue all-round and the Firing Squad’s article touches on who is to blame for these issues arising, but like it or loathe it, it is an inevitability right now.
		To access HDCP protected content on the PC users are going to require an HD-HVD or Blu-Ray player, an HDCP capable graphics board, an HDCP enabled OS (most likely Windows Vista for many users) and an HDCP enabled display device.
		Well since hdcp has already been broken we are shown once again the length that the movie industry will go to harm their own consumers while doing little to harm pirates.

		Nobody seems to know why the cards are shipping with the chip disabled and if they are to remain permanently disabled, but there is question as to whether the HDCP chip is disabled because of the BIOS or because drivers don’t support it yet.
		The next batch of cards is scheduled to ship late July or early August and reports suggest that they will have the HDCP chip enabled for full HDCP compliance, but it's not yet clear what exactly NVIDIA's plans are.
		HDCP does allow you to view the full rez content, but it isnt responsible for rendering the content, it's responsible for making sure you dont pirate the content.

	HDCP "Handshake" A Big Problem For Many Legacy DVI-Based HDTVs
		High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection (HDCP) is the protection that Hollywood movie studios are demanding that all new HDTV sources and displays have in order to broadcast the highest resolution HD images.
		This means that HDTV sources that output HDCP content could and very likely will be forced to down-convert to the lower resolution 480p video that is found on upscaled DVDs.
		Consumers with a $25,000, two year old top-of-the-line plasma might say ‘yes.’ Worldwide there are over 400,000,000 installed TVs thus the number of sets currently in the marketplace that can’t meet today’s standards are relatively small when you consider the impact of scaring away Hollywood from releasing their movies in 1080p on Blu-ray or HD-DVD.

	Sapphire Forums - x1600pro AGP and HDMI/HDCP?
		Sapphire point out that they have had support from ATI with respect to how the HDCP licensing is held for the X1000 boards, which have HDCP capabilities integrated into the chip.
		The HDCP license for these boards is held in a Secure ROM element of the graphics board BIOS, and with this element being a secure ROM its not updateable by software later - a board sold without an HDCP license without it in the secure ROM at manufacture time cannot be updated later.
		Sapphire alluded to other issues with securing the licenses, pointing out that the bodies that are processing the licenses can be somewhat slow to respond given they are currently swamped with requests from all the consumer manufacturers that are requesting keys, let alone all the PC manufacturers that will begin to request licenses as well.

		Other manuals I read are more vague: "this receiver is compatible with HDCP and HDCP contents can be viewed if you connect an HDCP-compatible TV to this receiver." But it says nothing about HDMI inputs.
		HDCP is optional in DVI devices, but most new ones include it.
		If the Oppo doesn't implement HDCP on its DVI output then whether or not any of the following devices are HDCP compliant should be irrelevant as long as they are just passing that audio/video through.
