Hdcp Hack Mac

Now this is only for those who don't care if the resolution is 720P/1080i and also don't wanna play Splitter Roulette (Many Splitters say they are HDCP Strippers, but aren't and you get stuck with a Pile of Splitters before you find one that works, this is especially troublesome for people like me in Australia where costs can sky-rocket while trying to find one that works).
This is for PS3 (well also I spose PS2), you can get a PS2 to HDMI Adaptor, it plugs into the Analog Port of the PS3 and it is powered by USB to the PS3 (so no issues with Power Adaptors, a common issue I ran into with Splitters as most online retailers are in the US so US Power plugs requiring a US/AU adaptor which is also prone to fail and costs extra $$$).
I stream PS3 games now with AverMedia LGX2 via OBS to Mixer with no issues, I actually had the PS2 to HDMI for streaming PS2 games and wasted about $80 on HDCP Bypass Splitters, that didn't Bypass HDCP at all.
Hopefully this helps someone who is having issues with finding a Splitter.
Note:L as Author Said this is just for recording Gameplay/Screenshots... LEGAL STUFF ONLY!!!
some extra Notes: In PS3 settings set it to Component to get 720P/1080i, with OBS when changing Resolutions it can sometimes make OBS error and say 'Out of Signal Range' Just restart OBS and hopefully fixes it.

Apr 29, 2019  An HDCP 2.2 compliant 4K TV, if your Mac’s built-in display isn’t 4K or higher. Both the TV and HDMI cable have to be HDCP 2.2 compliant or nothing will work. You won’t see any benefits streaming 4K content on a 1080p TV or your Mac’s 1440p display since it’s. The sole purpose is to be able to use non-HDCP compliant equipment with HDCP video sources. This can be you old TV or projector, or trying to record game playing (PS3), making screenshots, or my little ambient light project. Bypassing HDCP with the intend to copy/pirate content is MOST CERTAINLY ILLEGAL in most countries! Nov 15, 2019  High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection is a security feature developed by Intel Corporation that requires the use of HDCP-certified products to receive an HDCP-encrypted digital signal. It works by encrypting a digital signal with a key that requires authentication from both the transmitting and receiving products.

It warms our hearts when the community gets together. [esar] needed to get a decrypted HDMI stream for his home theater system. A tip-off in the comments and a ton of good old-fashioned hacking resulted in a HDMI splitter converted into a full-featured HDMI decrypter. Here’s the story.

His amazing custom Ambilight clone got profiled here, and someone asked him in the comments if it worked when High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is on. [esar] lamented that it didn’t. Hackaday readers to the rescue. [Alan Hightower] and [RoyTheReaper] pointed [esar] to the fact that HDMI splitters need to decrypt and re-encrypt the signal to pass it on, and pointed him to a trick to knock out the on-board microcontroller. [esar] took off from there.

Unfortunately, taking the micro out of the picture messed with a lot of other HDMI functionality. So [esar] started digging in the datasheets for the HDMI splitter chip, looking for registers relevant to the re-encryption. If he could get in between the microcontroller and the splitter chip on the I2C bus and disable the re-encryption, he’d be set.

If you’re at all interested in I2C hacking or abusing HDMI splitters, you need to read his post because he details all of the tribulations and triumphs. He first tries just brute-forcing the I2C by overwriting a 1 bit with a 0. This (correctly) signals the micro that there’s been a conflict on the bus, so it re-sends the command again. Dead end.

He then found another signal that the receiver could use say that it wasn’t decrypting. He tried sending this continuously to the splitter so that it would stop encrypting. That worked, but only for one channel, some of the time. It turns out that his code was taking too long in his bit-banged I2C code. He fixes this up and all is well? Well, 90% of the way there.

To hammer down the last 10% of the functionality, [esar] buys a couple more splitters, experiments around with another splitter chipset that works with 3D, and solders some more wires to enable the Audio Return Channel. And after a ton of well-documented hard work, he wins in the end.
