I try to play the movies, wcich were played before, but now I get a message: " This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)." Why?
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.4)
Do you have an external display connected to your MBA?
I have received the same message, not running an external screen just using mac book air running OS x Yosemite, which by the way after install the problems start.
4 months have been trying to solve the problem so if anyone can help please let me know.
Have reinstalled Yosemite etc no external screens connected and downloaded just the SD version on the movies, all which perviously worked just fine.
Same problem on the Mac Book Pro, yet works fine on apple tv and iphones and ipad.
Thoughts are welcomed.
