As many of you know the next gen gaming consoles are here. One in particular the PlayStation 4 by Sony has an issue with people recording gameplay for YouTube and other gaming sites. HDCP is the issue, HDCP is copyright protection that is transferred over HDMI. This is a major problem for people making a living creating gaming videos. HDCP is also an issue with cable boxes and DVD players. I have found an HDMI splitter that removes HDCP from the signal. I made a video explaining how this works. Here is the Splitter (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007NKOC2W?tag=radar0bf-20) I show in the video.

Greg,

This will really come in handy when recording some TV shows on my cable box.

Thanks.

I use this one, it's 16.50 on Amazon, has prime and it does the trick! :) I have a friend that works at TWiT, and they asked me what I use. I use this one!

Forgot to mention, I just put this "in-line" with my console or what I need to bypass HDMI with. I don't even use the second segment.

I have a question. Would this work with my cable box? I sometimes want to use my Montior as my TV
