Has the Digital Video copy protect problem now been resolved?
Yes – 1394 products such as televisions, AV hard drives, Digital VHS, and Cable set-top boxes are now available with a standard copy protection technology known as DTCP (Digital Transmission Content Protection), often known by its nickname 5C (for the five companies that defined it: Hitachi, Intel, Matsushita, Sony, and Toshiba), which provides a robust, secure transport mechanism that has never been cracked. Developers can license this technology from the DTLA (Digital Transmission Licensing Administrator) at http://www.dtcp.
