IMPORTANT NOTE!

Because of limitations specific to HDMI video output, the HDMI-to-DVI conversion cable is not suitable for viewing DVDs containing copyrighted content. This includes most commercial DVDs.

You can use the HDMI-to-DVI conversion cable to configure a MAX-AVP, but not to view content played on the AVP.

To view content played on the AVP, connect the AVP to an actual HDMI display device. Refer to the MAX-AVP documentation for instructions on using the AVP to playback media.

If playback of copyrighted content is attempted (via the conversion cable), the AVP may need to be rebooted to re-initialize the HDMI signal.

Technical Explanation

HDCP ("High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection") is a form of digital rights management designed to control digital A/V content as it travels across DVI or HDMI connections.

Standard HDMI (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) specifications require that the target display device for an HDMI signal must provide HDCP protocol for copyrighted content. If the connected display device does not provide valid HDCP handshaking, the HDMI signal will not be displayed. Typically, HDMI-capable video monitors provide HDCP protocol, but most computer monitors do not. This is the case with the LCD monitor included with the MDL200 kit.
