Does this remove HDCP? I'm trying to record gamplay footage with the elgato but HDCP is preventing that.

No it does not. I just recieved mine today and does not strip HDCP. Total loss today...the war is not lost though!

I'm not sure, I record with dtv hddvr and haven't had any hdcp issues playing back with any tvs. Viz sharp Sam

I tried this one and used it 2 or 3 times and it died. I think its is a bad product. I ended up buying the Elgato Video Capture Device 10020840. It is more expensive, but I never had a problem with it. With something like this you can't depend on the cheap ones, you have to spend a little money to get one that works.

I have come to the conclusion after much research that our adversary in these usability concerns is indeed HDCP (Hi Definition Copy Protection). The answer in my case is to buy a new HDCP compliant display, which is not something I am willing to do. I have no intention of buying a new display until the one I already have fails. I am unable to ascertain from my manual which version of HDCP the Toshiba HD A3 supports. From my research the only function HDCP provides for me is the inability to watch every SD DVD I have tried in anything other than 480p. Since AACS has been cracked there is no need any more for HDCP, because the copy can now be done digitally 1:1 which more harmful for the industry than any analog threat. All HDCP is doing anymore is interfering with my fair use of my equipment.

Depends on if the HDMI signal is using HDCP. My guess is that it won't unless you strip the HDCP from the original source before going into the capture device.

No mention of it anywhere in the owner's manual. However, it does mention that HDCP is required to view pre-recorded Blu-ray disc which is copy protected. I'll have to upgrade my system to watch Blu-ray discs (I found this out the hard way).

You're original footage is perfectly safe and is only copied. The Recorder might be able to pause/play the source, but there is no way it can erase anything from the source.

Yes this splitter SPLITS hdcp so you can record your ps3 into a game recorder via hdmi. No video degradation.

Both consoles are HDMI only. So, unless you want to purchase a pass through device that allows RGB to HDMI Via Passthrough, then you will most likely have to get the Elgato Gaming recorder. The AverMedia Game Capture HD is RGB Composite Only

Using HDMI Cables for recording inputs and the Progressive setting turned on, I have found improvements in video quality. Can't say for sure it works on everything. Can't get a Rembrant from a snapshot. But I am very pleased with the units I have.

The HDMI on this board is not quaranteed to support HDCP although it seems to work most of the time. If it a problem I would recommend installing a video card designed for what you are doing. Also be sure the cable and screen you are using is complient. They can cause problems as well.

Really it's only used for game and video capture on your pc. I wouldn't capture cable or satellite do to copyright issues. I'm not even sure if it'll work

This is the wrong product for you. 99% chance it won't work. Check out the "HD Game Capture Device" from Elgato. It works on my Vista OS.

I assume you have another digital audio input for your hdcp input, yes? There should be no problem.

Yes, all it does is carry the protocol. So some video can't be recorded. This device doesn't filter that out

It does. You have to go to settings, then system set up. Go to storage file, and you can erase entire footage at once. I did the same thing you did at first.

Unfortunately I do not shoot stills or use HDMI output. I'm strictly high bit rate video using the San Disk extreme pro 64 gb 95 mbs card. (the only reliable card for a hacked GH2) Then off loaded straight to the computer. Sorry I can't be any help.
