Only since installing Yosemite have I begun having HDCP issues on my '11 MBA.

The issue raises it's head with HD content via Amazon, Netflix, Vudu, Flixster, and iTunes streaming and/or using Airplay to an AppleTV 3 / Panasonic plasma and even playing downloaded iTunes content on the MBA monitor.

It's working sometimes and not others - playback is failing 1/3 of the time with the reason being no detected HDCP compatible device.

Have not done any further testing, nor booted back into 10.9 to see if it goes away at this time.
Wondering if others have experienced the same?

yes and you have a faulty hdmi cable you need a high speed hdmi cable and they are not cheap around 40.00 to 80.00 for 4 of them but you need a high speed cable because if the cable cannot keep up the single strength on the data line of the cable you will receive a hdcp error every time
