Does anyone know if the HDMI inputs on this set are both HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compatible? Thanks!

It depends on the manufacture date. Best thing to do woild be to call up sony to find out. I know a lot of the 65s shipped as 1.8 and sony sent techs out to people that called in to upgrade the boards

@ JonThe Oppo 980 has several video outputs. There is the HDMI, Component Video, S-Video and the Composite Video.I believe that HDCP is an issue when playing back on HDMI but it should not be an issue for Component Video, S-Video and Composite Video. I would like to suggest that you check directly with Oppo at www.oppodigital.com. The tech support guys there have been very helpful on past queries.Please let us know what Oppo's response is so it will be of help to other similar inquiries in the future.

No the device will not provide HDCP so any output applicaiton that requires it is not going to work. I HAVE used this on an Apple TV but I have not tried watching rentals with it, I only used it for the slideshow use, and it didnt adapt to the geometry of my screen very well and so I moved on pretty quickly.

Your cable might not be HDCP compatible. HDCP is the copyright protection protocol used by certain devices, and some HDMI cables that arent HDCP compliant will not work with those devices. Your cable will probably work with xbox 360, PS3, and upconvert dvd players but probably won't work with blu-ray, hd-dvd, and STBs if it isnt HDCP compliant. I've had this problem before.

A high definition source coming through any of the four HDMI inputs will be upscaled to 4K. As it happens, Amazon's description saying that there is only one HDMI 2.0 input is wrong: all of the inputs are marked as "HDMI(4K@60Hz)/DVI IN", meaning that they all use HDMI 2.0. (There is only one HDCP 2.2 input, but that's something else entirely.) HDMI 2.0 doesn't really matter at the moment, since there are no current sources that output 4K@60Hz, with the best current sources being at 4K@30Hz, which even HDMI 1.4 can handle. However, there will be 4K@60Hz sources, probably within the next year, and those will require an HDMI 2.0 input, so having HDMI 2.0 inputs is important for the future. On this TV, all of the inputs are HDMI 2.0, but each one is slightly different. HDMI 1 has HDCP 2.2, which is a copy protection scheme that will be required when 4K Blu-ray players come out; HDMI 2 contains the ARC (Audio Return Control) feature, allowing you to plug in a receiver and send the receiver's video signal into the TV while simultaneously sending the TV's audio back to the receiver without using a separate audio cable; HDMI 3 allows a Deep Color (10 bit) source to be plugged in; while HDMI 4 is designed for MHL (Mobile High-definition Link), allowing you to plug in a mobile phone. Frankly, I would like to see HDCP 2.2, ARC, and Deep Color all available on the same input, but with the 2014 LG TVs, you have to choose which feature you want. At least they have HDCP 2.2 available on one of their inputs, which is good since the TV industry is really pushing to make it mandatory. But again, all of this stuff has nothing to do with upscaling. All of the inputs will upscale to 4K.

No, There are currently no Sony recievers on the market that support HDCP 2.2. There is an Onkyo, but even it only has 1 port dedicated to it. The STR-ZA1000ES will support HDCP 2.2 but it is not available yet. Luckly right now there isn't very much content that supports HDCP 2.2. but it will become a problem later if you trying to future proof your system. They will be able to update the HDMI firmware but the hdcp is not backwards compatible due that the current hardware was not designed for it yet. Honestly, I would wait. They starting to roll out HDCP 2.2 Receivers soon, beats worrying about it later. Hope that helps.

Ken, did you find a cable that supports HDCP Handshaking? I've not gotten this cable to work with AppleTV, looking for alternative. Anyone?

What is exactly the question? Or what is the exact thing you like to do. Do you want find out if it takes the HDCP off the HDMI or of it keeps it on so that you can not copy the HDMI signals?Best Reinhard

Beware.. zone 2 doesn't support all inputs, including those of the HDMI variety. See the cautionary review (one of the first displayed) for more details.

Hi Emanuele, yes it supports HDMI 2.0 which increases bandwidth from 10.2 Gbps to 18 Gbps.

I used the device to go from HDMI to YPbPr. It works great. Picture clarity and colors are both good. The TV (26" Panasonic) was 1080p ready, but did not have HDMI inputs, so going with component inputs was the only real option.

Do other inputs to the receiver work? No idea why yours does not. I have our receiver (monitor) connected to HDMI 1 and as the receiver switches inputs the TV displays well. Sorry I cannot help any more.

I get an annoying HDCP compatability issue on occasion with my Apple TV since I started using the pigtail switch. I have to occasionaly reseat the HDMI cable to clear it up.
