HDCP question

Does anyone know if it is possible to connect your ps3 to a computer monitor that isn't HDCP ready? I'm not sure if mine is, but if anyone knows a way or if my monitor is HDCP ready (Hanns-G JW199D) please tell me.

It is fine and will work fine as long as the content doesn't require HDCP - the PS3 has no issue requiring HDCP, but the content may or may not

Think most games are fine since people are playing them with component

I believe the DVI-D is the only kind of DVI input that supports HDCP, and if that's the case all you will need is a HDMI->DVI-D adapter. I'm not sure if that monitor has DVI-D, but if it doesn't you can use a transcoder like the X2VGA. I've read some reviews of the X2VGA transcoder and it works well for people who want HD at a discount price.

edit: I just looked at your monitor's specs and it indicates that your monitor does indeed have a DVI-D input, so try the HDMI->DVI-D adapter.

HDMI in NOT always HDCP, it depends if your monitor Supports HDCP. like DVI alone doesn't suport HDCP but DVI-D does support HDCP. I know some Cheap TV sets not to name any *cough*visio*cough*olivea*cough* excuse me. they don't support HDCP on many of their models but they do have HDMI inputs.

Read my post again where did I talk about HDMI? He doesn't state that he is using the hdmi port etc - so I answered his post saying the ps3 doesn't require hdcp compliant monitors - the material may or may not. Since a lot of people are playing with component cables they obviously doesn't need hdcp compliance for those games....

So I suggest you read my post instead of me reading your link.....
