Question about Roline HDMI (Typ A) — HDMI (Typ A)

I bought the cable to connect the beamer to the Apple box. The video transmission works fine with Apple TV. But with Netflix, I always get the message that it probably doesn't support the HDCP video type and the picture stays out. Can anyone help me? Have I bought the wrong cable? p.s. I tried it with an HDMI splitter and also a direct connection.

HDCP stands for "High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection" and ensures that the data is transmitted in encrypted form. Netflix only works with HDCP, unfortunately I don't know about the Apple TV. The aspect relevant to you is the following: HDCP only depends on the end devices, i.e. the devices at both ends need a DHCP chip.
-> DHCP is *completely independent* of the cable.

Do you know if your projector supports DHCP?

If not, then unfortunately no cable can change this and you cannot watch Netflix with your projector.

If yes, then there must be another error, and Netflix shows you the "DHCP" error message because it doesn't know where the problem actually lies. Have you tried a different cable? Are there any HMDI settings on your projector?
