Home audio & video forum: HARMAN KARDON HDMI COPY PROTECTION MESSAGE

is the receivers HDMI HDCP compliant???

for now just run the HDMI from the PS3 to the TV & a toslink to the receiver for audio. Email or call HK about the reciever HDMI port.


a model # of the reciever would help us too.

I've heard of problems with Harmon Kardon AVRs and HDMI with HDCP sources (like the PS3). I think the problem is limited to just a couple of their AVR models, but it certainly does suck.

HK might have a firmware update for you to make your AVR HDCP compliant though.

They should be able to fix this. If not, that's BS. However, they might have you send it in. Or they might even charge you. Different companies work in different ways. They shouldnt charge for the service in this case.

Its obviously HDCP issues. And its obviously the receiver's fault.

To repeat what others have already said, contact HK.

Curiously, how long have you had it, was it new, where did you get it?

have them swap it out for a new one. Maybe they'll agree, maybe they won't. You'll have the receiver to show them. Who knows.

If not, well, you better contact HK. Actually I would contact them first. After all, BB is prolly going to tell you to do the same.
