Video settings
HDCP Enable
Disable:
The connected source will detect that
the matrix is not HDCP-compliant and turn off
authentication if the content allows it.
Allow HDCP 1.4 only:
The connected source will
detect that the matrix is compliant with HDCP
1.4 but not compliant with HDCP 2.2.
Allow HDCP 2.2 and HDCP 1.4:
The connected
source will detect that the matrix is compliant
with HDCP 2.2.
High Value mode (limit switching to HDCP 2.2 sinks)
:
Any version of HDCP is allowed on the input
but the incoming signal is always internally
upconverted to HDCP 2.2 content and thus
cannot be switched to HDCP 1.4 sinks.
Factory defaults Resetting the default values:
HDCP
= "
HDCP 2.2 or
HDCP 1.4
".
