I'm not referring to the digital switch over on Feb 17th,2009.
HDCP means: High Defintion Content Protection.

A. HDCP is an inert technology : it’s up to the movie studios to deploy it (or not) as a copy-protection scheme.
HDCP notifies the player if there’s a non-HDCP device in the playback chain.
Software in the player then executes the rules (established by the media owner) that are encoded within the content.
What concerns you here within HDCP is the ICT (The Image Constraint Token) rule : a rule that gives content owners the power to make the software stop playing content or downsample video to a 960x540 resolution (a fraction of the image quality you should normally get) if HDCP is missing at any stage in the playback chain.
The Image Constraint Token is invoked on a per-disc basis.
The good news for you is that so far it seems no studio has activated the technology in their current releases (Blu-ray discs).
The fatidic date you mentioned is based on a rumor. It is now more commonly advanced that studios would have informally agreed not to implement it until at least 2012.
The good news is that Sony, Disney, Fox, Paramount, MGM and Universal have already stated that they have no intention of using this feature. The other studios, which have yet to announce their plans, will most likely follow suit to avoid getting bad publicity. If any of the studios still decide to use ICT they will have to state this on the cover of their movies, so you should have no problem avoiding these titles.

My RCA HDTV w/DVD when powering on has sound but no picture, what's the issue?
Q. My RCA TV when turned on has sound, shows via the TV screen that the HD-MI connection (to the cable box) is on but no picture; at least initially. If I then turn the TV on and off a few times, the picture will then appear and the TV works fine from that point on. The TV model is 22la45RQD, a 2012 RCA 22" HDTV with DVD player, manufactured by On Corp US. The TV and all connections are plugged into a power strip. I did unplug the TV (and all other TV related connections from the power strip), for abut 5-10 minutes, but that didn't make any difference. I did check all the connections and they are fine. Anyone know what the issues is and if there is anything I can do to fix it? Keep in mind the TV is just about 1 year old and cost less than $200.
A. Hi,
It sounds like a Issue with the LCD backlight, probably the inverter has packed up.
Here's an experiment! :) When the TV is on but there is no picture, shine a torch (flash-light) onto the screen. If you can vaguely see the picture you know its a backlight problem. If you cannot, I'd say its a problem with the cable box or the cable you are using to go between the box and TV.
