if you have legitimate reason and legal rights to remove HDCP, then the link below will have a product that will work 100% of the time with any device you can find.

Another solution that I came across by accident was using an HDMI extender with loop out.

I have a cam that go into the extender, then there are 2 HDMI outs, one which goes into a 7in monitor and then other back to the ATEM switcher. If I remember correctly, if you use the #2 out, whatever reason it eliminates the HDCP.

Dont ask why. I'm not sure. I just know it does it.

It is because the monitor is an endpoint and HDCP compliant, so it handshakes with the source device and says okay to transmit data. The 2nd output going to the ATEM is just a copy.

If you power it all down, unplug the monitor from the destination of the extender, and then power it back up without the monitor, the ATEM shouldn't get a signal. If it does, then the extender is "not compliant".

HDCP should not just be bypassed - we all make our livings in the digital media world, and whereas some source devices are a little over zealous with what they protect (like home movies burned to DVDs), but quite often bypassing HDCP is done without permission of the copyright holder. This shouldn't really be acceptable to any of us. If circumventing HDCP, you should have the legal rights to the material.

The problem is that there are many fair use situations where HDCP inhibits our ability to legally use content - pretty much any time you plug a disc player into an ATEM box, you're going to have problems with that.

Totally understand, but I think that problem comes when using consumer kit for what amounts to be PRO use. For example discs, there are proper professional DVD / Bluray players available. For example JVC have / had a disc player / recorder that solves your issue.

http://jvcpro.co.uk/product/242/sr-hd2500eu-blu-ray-and-dvd-combi-deck/

Much more expensive, but SDI enabled, and correctly read the discs and enables / disables HDCP or in fact the SDI output depending on the flags authored into the content.

All I am really saying is if you find yourself bypassing HDCP, think twice, and ensure you have legal permission to material. Fair use can be somewhat of a "grey area", and opinion based, hence why it's often settled in court, so I'm just saying to everyone here. BE CAREFUL!

Well then you have to look why they go in HDCP protect mode.. Because normally a macbook does not send HDCP if it is not needed.. :!: :!:

So there is something with the content that is not OK..

There is NO clean sollution to record HDCP protected content as this is forbidden by LAW!!

Offcourse HDCP will work with your tv.. Even without the HDFury.. Because the TV complies with the HDCP standard and the manufacturer follows the HDCP code and pays the fee's..

Really find out why those macbooks are playing out content with HDCP in the first place.!! Because they don't do that by default.. There is something that triggers them to do that..

There are hunderds of users out there using there macbooks as playout on the atem or capture devices without problems.. And without HDCP because normally HDCP is not enabled..

HDCP is only enabled if you play a movie.. (Content protection) or you use specific software that seems to turn on HDCP..

But again normally they don't output HDCP!! Are you sure the problem is HDCP? Is it not something like resolution / framerate error.. If you connect a camera or other source do you get picture then?

The analogue way gear has settings to turn HDCP on and off. If you really dont have any copy protected content playing on the computer then you just need to check the setting of the other gear in the path (like the PLS) and make sure you have HDCP turned off for all the inputs and the output.

Otherwise the only time that HDCP will turn on on a laptop is playing protected content. There are some boxes that strip the HDCP, of course they are breaking copyright and not technically legal. Otherwise check your signal chain.

The way that Apple chooses to implement HDCP is a pain in the arse, and it changes all the time, making it hard for infrastructure AV guys to keep current.

Typically what we see at my organization is flat out denial of any display from a Mac laptop connected via HDMI. Not only when playing copyrighted, protected movies, but bupkis even when displaying a desktop or wanting to display a two line PPT.

There are many variables in a room distribution chain as to why this would be, but suffice to say, it is a headache. Usually because a distro amp somewhere doesn't do the handshake properly. Room guys never see it as they are gonna have Win machines. They plug it up, see screen and move on. Trust me. There's like 200 rooms on this campus, and it is a continuing headache.

Few ways around this. Put a MD-HX in between the Mac HDMI and the rest of the chain. This will make the room happy and pass stuff through. You can then take the SDI output of this and send to your record.

Put an Extron 1606 between the mac and the room system. A bit of overkill, but also works. The 1606 has dual HDMI outs, so one can go to room, the other to you.

you confirm setup ?

your setup won't work.
Md hx only has hdmi and sdi input. no vga or dvi.

md hx even don't has any posibility to plug in a xlr cable. so you need a solution for sound. 4his could be a usb sound card if you can choose it as an input in wirecast.
for me steinber ur 22 mk ii works well.

yes, md hx can scale these resolutions

I’ve heard these HDMI splitters are able to do what HDFury can’t. I’m not sure if they work with Apple products, but they’ve been proven to work on PCs. Since they aren’t that expensive, it might be worth a small investment to see if they solve your problem. ;) :ugeek: 8-)

Since I was not able to record my own created content via HDMI, here is the solution which worked for me:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-1x2-HDMI-S ... 2749.l2649

It also sends audio thru.
Its only up to FullHD.

Für 4k material I tried with this one: 
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Blu-ray-HD-DVD ... Sw5cNYHjqM

But it works only sometimes, depending in which sequence you are connecting the devices.
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, AMD Threadripper 2990WX 32-Core, Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080Ti 11GB, 64 GB Ram.
