"We are now, today, able to release any new device with a pass in hdcp compliance and therefor able to help others to reach the same status", explains HD Fury's Ken Taurus.
The Integral HDMI scaler, convertor and matrix passed its compliance tests a little over a year ago, but with the company's current device the Vertex "currently at a 98% success rate in testing, full compliance will also be reached shortly", it decided to announce its compliance to the world.
The second reason being the launch of a new consulting service to help other comply with HDCP rules and requirements: "Any manufacturers wanting to reach full compliance with their splitters, matrix, switchers or scalers devices, can get in touch with us. We now offer consulting and adviser services in this field for a reasonable fee, the company said in a prepared statement.
Having passed compliance tests HDfury Integral is the first ever fully compliant device available on the Market says HDFury. Othe devices do not comply as they reprecent themselves as a Receiver and not a Repeater. An important distinction HDFury explains:
"To be compliant, a HDMI device located between Source and Sink in a setup would need to advertise itself as a "Repeater" under HDCP rules and definitions.
Yet, none of such devices actually does that, they all advertise themselves as "Receiver" under HDCP rules and definitions, which is not allowed for such devices by these same rulings.
Presenting a device as a "Repeater" also involve that such device pass numerous series of test to be compliant, which most of them would never be able to pass because they mostly all lack of enough processing power to do so.
It took us a long time and some serious effort in managing available processing resources in our designs to succeed in handling such requirements but we ultimately did it".
In 2016 Warner, Intel and DCP (Digital Content Protection LLC that manages the HDCP lincensing programme) sued HDFury a case settled out of court, with the terms still undisclosed except for the company stopping selling some of its older products. And now DCP's Authorised Test Center tested the Integral as fully compliant. However the testing document starts out by saying this does not imply a license is in place, that is a seperate matter, of course only sellers of compliant devices should receive the licence.
Successful completion of all tests for a given type of device does not earn or imply,
directly or indirectly, any certification, endorsement or other statement of fitness for
use by the DCP, LLC. Test results and reports are for the information of the
licensee and intended solely as an aid to help determine if their implementation
meets the requirements of the Compliance rules in the license agreement. <\q>
