Apple Products and HDCP in new rooms (5-7-2014)
For those of you with Macs moving into the new building or using rooms with HDMI built in, you need an HDMI adapter to get copyrighted digital media (anything purchased or downloaded via itunes or any other digital distribution store, i.e. Amazon, Google Play, etc.) working in the room with your Macbook or iPad.
Here are my findings regarding HDCP on Macs (there is no difference from each model of Mac computers):
| Warning | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
| DVD player does not play through Air Media! Please use the VGA or HDMI connection in order to play your dvd. |
