How Do I Know if My Monitor Is HDCP Compliant?

• Answer:

  High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection is the standard method used for protecting digital signals transmitted over digital video cables. The Digital Visual Interface and High Definition Multimedia Interface connections are compatible with HDCP. If your monitor supports DVI, HDMI or both, it is most likely that it supports HDCP. However, there are a few ways to find out for sure. Difficulty: Moderately Easy Instructions Take out the specifications booklet or user manual that came with your monitor’s documentation packet. If you don’t have it, visit your monitor manufacturer’s website and look up the model number. Many manufacturers provide online versions of their manuals. Locate the Connections, Inputs, Video Options or other similarly named section of the booklet or manual. Use the table of contents or index to find this, whichever you prefer. Look at each of the listed connection types in that section of the booklet or manual. If your monitor is HDCP compliant, it will say so next to each of the connections that support it.
