From what I've read, the group that OKs the DVI output has 6 months to "get back with your certification". Why they need 6 months is beyond me. Maybe they're retarded.Samsung put in their request very early for a DVI-HDCP port. When it came time to release the player, they had been given the OK. The HD931 is HDCP compliant.
V Inc (or maybe the OEM company) put in a request and was not given an answer within those 6 months. The rule is, if 6 months pass and there is no reply, you can implement the port -- but you don't get HDCP approval. Therefore, the Bravo D1 is DVI-enabled but doesn't transmit an HDCP signal.
For consumers, that's not a problem because "no HDCP" means that anything leaving the Bravo's DVI port can be accepted by the next DVI or DVI-HDCP enabled component in the chain (scaler, display, etc). If the Bravo was HDCP compliant, then components that weren't DVI-HDCP compliant couldn't accept the signal (real bummer for older scalers and displays that are only DVI capable -- but not DVI-HDCP compliant).
By the way, computers with a DVI port on the video card can send a digital video signal without HDCP (ie, it can be used with any scaler, display, etc).
