If I hook up something like a wd box via hdmi...will it still be hdcp?

In other words, can I view HD and output over 5bnc?

I understand that a Blu-ray player in through hdmi would only let you output over hdmi...but I'm wondering about other options.

Also, if I can do that...is there some sort of a hdcp stripper that simply strips it? THen I could ouptut from Bluray player to stripper, then to lumagen without hdcp...then vga into the projector.

Is this logical?

Nash,

does that mean what I was asking above is true...it will work? If the hdmi goes in with no hdcp, I can hook up via vga?

This device seems to do the trick, but it's 290...200 bucks more than the lumagen Smile

Is there a cheap bastard version??

I found someone selling a HDFury version 1...which will do the trick...but it would be after the lumagen. WHich is not ideal...but doable.

You can pu the HD fury before the lumagen, the DVI connectors can be configured I believe for RGBHV or some of the component and composite are combined to make a rgbhv input. I would do it that way, if the HD Fury will send 1080p@24 then have the lumagen output what ever you want. For scope use 800p@72 etc. then use the lumagen for Greyscale and gamma at 11 points.

Here is the best chepest solution.. Wink

Just strip HDCP, and then let the Lumagen do the DA converting in the end.

I tested it on 4 different VP.. worked perfect. For sure better than any HDfury solutions.

It looks like this doesn't strip hdcp...I was thinking I needed it to do that.

You need a moom Mux-HD. You can put that between the source device and the lumagen you can then run RGBVH out of the Lumagen to the projector at 1080p etc.

Sorry if its not clear, but the 25$ HDMI splitter do strip HDCP perfect, You need to read all the thread i linked to.

As i told i tested it with 1080P 24/60hz HDMI in and 1080P60hz RGBHV out of 4 different VP.

It is the cheepest solution i know off if you already have a VP with RGBHV out.

The moome is another solution, just depends your needs for inputs, and how much money you have to spende.
