Great Article! What is DVI, HDCP, DTCP, HDMI

[BuddTX]

Being no stranger to forums, I know better than to post before reading.

However, after reading hundreds of posts and FAQ, I still did not have a clear understanding of what these terms did.

THIS ARTICLE explained it all. Now I understand all the connections.

Thought I would share this with everyone, in case there are others like me lurking about out there!

We're working up a nice article on the different audio and video connections associated with home theater, but thanks for the link. There's a lot to be confued about - especially when you throw all of the copy protection and compatibility issues in with the mix.

Just imagine: daisy-chaining all your A/V equipment using one lossless standard. I'm assuming that the group behind HDMI is forward-thinking enough to make that happen? I suppose we're still 10 years away from that...
