High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)

If your monitor supports HDCP, it can receive high-definition content. High-definition content is available
in many sources, such as Blu-ray Disc devices or HDTV air or cable broadcasts. If you do not have an
HDCP-enabled monitor, you will see a blank screen or a lower resolution picture when playing high-
definition protected content. Your computer graphics card and monitor must both support HDCP to
display protected content.
