LCD Monitors with HDCP - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

hugh · 2005-12-02, 05:45 PM

Since its going to become an issue in the next year, I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread listing monitors that include HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) .

HDCP will be required when trying to play back Blu-Ray or HD DVD discs on your computer.

The first monitor I'm adding to the is one that I want to buy the Gateway FPD2185WH which is great looking 21" widescreen monitor.

I'm resurrecting this thread because I think it will be an issue in coming months.

The Samsung 215TW I have has HDCP support, so might as well add that one

Bagman · 2006-12-11, 02:16 PM

I believe this one can be added too: BenQ FP241W 24IN
I did not find HDCP stated in the reviews, but considering it is advertized as having "complete HD support", a bunch of inputs including HDMI, I guess it has to be HDCP compliant.... Just waiting for the firmware updated version of it later in January with 1:1 pixel mapping...

I haven't found any HDTVs/monitors that had HDMI, but were not HDCP compliant. DVI is a "worry" and must say or have HDCP.

Blintok · 2007-01-01, 12:26 PM

There is the new E228WFP from Dell

a 22inch widescreen LCD

"The new display also includes support for HDCP high definition content protection"

tipdrill407 · 2007-01-06, 07:56 PM

The Samsung 940Bw is HDCP compliant?? I have a 940 and i was totally unaware it supported HDCP!! :O can someone confirm this??

f1racer · 2007-01-07, 10:15 AM

Can I connect a Scientific Atlanta 3250HD (Rogers) cable box to Dell's E228WFP monitor? I've tried and it looks like the signal from the box is out of the monitor's range.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Cyclism · 2007-01-07, 10:21 AM

f1racer:

Yes you can connect the SA3250HD STB to the Dell E228WFP. How have you connected it? Via DVI or Component? What do you mean the signal is out of the monitor's range?
If you are using DVI, if you are not getting a picture the monitor may not be HDCP compliant via DVI even though it claims to be. Try using Component (Red, Green, Blue cable) and see if you get a picture.
