As I stated recently, I was after a monitor with HDCP and a DVI-D socket, which meant I could plug it into any HDMI device, and now I've had it for a week I'd like to mention a new problem.
HDCP communication between the Blu-ray player and monitor are generally fine, unless I've had the monitor on for a while and it's been on VGA (D-Sub) all that time. Then I put on the Blu-ray player and press Source to change to DVI-D... and the picture is all flickery, fuzzy and generally unusable. Then I simply turn the monitor off and on again, and THEN it is fine.
Is this a fault, or bad handshaking between the devices? If so, why does the Blu-ray put on a big HDMI OK logo with a massive green tick, even though the confetti is everywhere?
Another thing is, every time I switch between VGA and HDMI, the Blu-ray player always shows the HDMI OK logo. Does this put a strain on the system at all?
