[QUOTE="WelshTom, post: 37436, member: 12799"] Hi there, I am in a bit of a dilema and was hop0ing someone could throw some light on my problem. Basically I am about to buy a new LCD TV, which is quite a bit investment so I want to buy the right one. I have been looking and have found a 30" screen with a resolution of 1280 x 768 and a DVI input, but no HDCP. No problem I thought as I will be runing everything through my HTPC anyway. But then I started thinking about when Blue-Ray and HD-DVD drives start arriving for the PC, will they only be able to display films onto a TV with HDCP? I know they are planning this with stand alone players, but will it be needed for HTPC's too? Will we also need new graphics cards? Not sure if anyone out there can help, but any suggestions will be welcomed! Thanks [/QUOTE]
