[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1065809, member: 24160"] It's not a matter of a patch. It can't be patched. Any device that recognizes HDCP playing content protected by HDCP will not play that content on an attached device that does not have HDCP. If you purchase a movie in HD that has HDCP protection and play it back from a device - say a B-R player that recognizes HDCP and connect it to a TV that does not have HDCP, it will refuse to play. If iTunes has any of their HD content now protected by HDCP, can assure you it was not their choice, it was the studio the material comes from. I would guess this is one of the reasons, along with the smaller resolution iPods, they're providing the SD versions along with the HD. My guess (have not read this yet anywhere else), is that the iPad is HDCP compliant and your TV is not. The TV in this case would be the item that needs a "patch". When no devices in the chain even recognize the HDCP flag the content contains, typically it will play, but not all the time. I've even kept an HDTV tuner card from a few years ago that does not recognize the flag in case it's implemented in over-the-air broadcast TV to prevent recording. [/QUOTE]
