Starting at the source, the HD or BR reader, seems to present more sense: 1) the reader get a protected content 2) the reader call the OS for an HDCP hardware, more exactly here would start the handshake, the OS just joints the parts.
In other words, the HDCP reader get or doesn't get its HDCP counterpart, that doesn't involve necessarly the monitor. Unless the HDCP license is so paranoid that each componment of the chain, including the monitor, should comply to it. _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
