|
|
Okay, first off, if anybody cares, I'm not trying to bootleg anything or do anything illegal with this. I just want to be able to watch Blu-Rays on my CRT TV. I use a Crystalio II for D to A conversion and scaling. Even without scaling, it looks better than any other D to A adapters I've used. I always had some degree of artifacts from using an HD Fury or a DeLock.
Unfortunately the Crystalio II blanks any HDCP signal being converted to analog. It's a pretty frustrating decision from a product that otherwise does almost everything I need from a video processor. So, I need to find a device to remove the HDCP from the signal before going into the Crystalio II.
I tried a cheap 4k splitter from Amazon, and I got a working video signal from it but it looked very bad. It was very jaggedly distorted, so I returned it.
Now I'm looking for one that works without issue. It only needs to support up to 1080p as I will never have a source higher than that. Extra bonus if this is possible with a passive device, but I don't get the impression that it is. I've seen a lot of EDID emulators that are passive but I've read that they can't defeat HDCP.
Thank you!

I'm actually using a direct-view presentation monitor. No possibility of HDMI in. Also, I want to be able to use the Crystalio II to correct issues with scaling, aspect ratio, etc.

Was it the black and blue Orei splitter, by any chance?
BTW what presentation monitor do you have? I have the one from this article:
https://mikejmoffitt.com/articles/0051-nettv-rgb.html
I did the mod he wrote about, as well! The speakers/subwoofer(s? it may have dual subs) on this monitor are insane. 1/3 of max volume is too much!

Bitsquad, which version of Crystalio II you own (3100, 3300 or 3800) ?
