Many HDMI video sources are encrypted with content protection
called “HDCP,” even if the content is not copyrighted. Complying
with laws, the HD Capture Box Ultimate does not disable or
override content protection.
** Therefore, if you simply plug in a content-protected HDMI
video source to the HD Capture Box Ultimate, it will not
detect a signal or allow you to record/stream.
This does NOT mean the device is defective. This simply means that
this device complies with federal law and does not record from
content protected video sources.
For gaming systems and cameras, you may be able to turn
off HDCP in your system/camera’s settings. **
FOR RECORDING 1080P/720P:
There are low-cost HDMI splitters available that disable “HDCP.”
Passing a 1080P/720P HDMI signal “through” either of these
splitters first, HDCP sources could be recorded or streamed.
(NOTE: This will only work for 4K devices if your video source is
“backwards compatible” and can output 1080P/720P instead.)
