This is about Windows Vista compatible (HDCP capable) computer monitors and playing back Blu-Ray or HD-DVD on Windows Vista. I am talking about the graphics card driver for Linux. Mind you, LCD flat panel TV sets are mostly HDCP capable now (if you pay attention when you buy) so this is not an issue. The question is if anything in a DVB-S2 broadcasting requires / enforces the graphics card to HD ready TV set link (DVI or HDMI) to be HDCP encrypted. If you have a shrinkwrapped device (e.g. a Premiere set-top box) that requires a HDCP capable display you can't avoid having one. AFAIK the _device_ enforces HDCP not the broadcasting (this is different with HD-DVD or Blu-Ray but this is another story). If this is true, I can't see what the problem is... -- Love cannot be much younger than the lust for murder. -- Sigmund Freud
