- dzhiurgis 1y agoAFAIK HDMI protects from direct ripping so how do they actually do it?
- lucb1e 1y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection#Master_key_release https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content... You mean this? Doesn't sound that hard to bypass
- dzhiurgis 1y agoLooks like old version. 1080p max perhaps?
- Forgeties79 1y agoEh sort of sometimes maybe. Lots of hardware/cables out there that don’t care what you’re doing. I can use an ATEM mini to grab basically anything I want so long as I’m down to capture in real time.
- nitwit005 1y agoI assume HDCP is the reason a lot of ripped content is not in 4K (or because needs a more expensive Netflix subscription). It sounds like people just bypass it by using an HDMI splitter however.
- veegee 1y agoVery easy to remove it with an HDCP remover like HDFury, or even an HDCP downconverter and then using the known master keys to decrypt that.
- pta2002 1y agoRipping the HDMI stream (which is usually still breaking DRM!) is going to force you to reencode the video which will inevitably lose quality. You might also end up with UI elements on the screen and won’t be able to get subtitles out.
