Hello everyone, my family might buy the 4k oled tv to finally get rid of our ancient TV and they told me to read the specs for them (I'm the "tech guy" if you will) and I have a question about HDCP 2.2

I know what is, but according to the specs in LG site all the HDMI inputs are HDCP 2.2.
what I want is that will it block my content (no matter what they are or their source) if mirrored from my laptop or plugged from an htpc knowing that the content will played through any media player (VLC for an example), will my content be blocked?? Knowing that it will be used as a dump TV

I tried to search but I never get a straight answer

HDCP on the tv side is what it will decode. If you send a non HDCP input or a lower revision you should be fine as there is backwards compatability.

Soo, you're saying I can watch 4k movies without any problems?!

Sorry i miss rememberd the new 2.2 spec you will be down graded to 1080p if there is no hdcp 2.2 hand shake. It will still pass video to the tv it just wont be 4k.

Even if I played it through VLC?! If that is the case, does the 900 gpu series support HDCP 2.2 ?

Here is a link to a forum discussion about what 900 cards support 2.2. https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/845270/geforce-900-series/gpus-with-hdcp-2-2-support/
