Introduction
The simplest way to test if an ATI R 5xx, RV5xx or M5x graphics card is HDCP ready is to play back protected content which has the Macrovision or CGMS-A flag set. This ca n be done in Windows or DOS. ATI has DOS diagnostics available to verify HDCP functionality on the production line.
Basic requirements
ATI desktop R5xx or RV5xx graphics controller or mobile M5x graphics controller
8.20 or later ATI graphics dr iver
ATI diagnostics containing the HDCP test (available from your Field Applications
Engineer or the Resource Center)
Windows XP Pro SP2
COPP source filter (COPPSrcFilter.dll part of COPP SDK v1.0 available from
Microsoft)
GraphEdit video testing application (part of DirectX 9.0c)
Macrovision or CGMS-A flagged content

DOS Testing
ATI has provided a DOS diagnostic so that customers can verif y HDCP functionality on their R5xx, RV5xx and M5x designs on the production line. This diagnostic i s available on the Resource Center or directly from your ATI Field Applications Engineer. It requires an HDCP ready display monitor or TV.
Please follow these steps to set up the ATI HDCP Diagnostic utility on your system.
1. Downloa d the HDCP Diagno sti c Suite ZIP Package to your system.
2. Unzip the Diagnostic Suite into a directory that can be accessed through DOS.
3. Restart the system and enter DOS mode.
4. Open the directory that contains the Diagnostic Suite.
5. Enter “menu” to run the Diagnostic Suite.
6. Once in the program, there are three (3) test options available for the user:
Automatic HDCP Test – checks HDCP compatibility without displaying test
signals
Visual HDCP Test – checks HDCP compatibility by sending HDCP protected
content to the display
Automatic & Visual HDCP Test – a combination of the aforementioned tests
7. If an error has occurred, please consult your Application Engineer to determine the cause of the error. A board will fail the HDCP diagnostic testing if ANY of the components of the system is NOT HDCP supported.

Windows Testing
ATI will only be supporting HDCP through the pre-defined Microsoft COPP API. Currently, only beta versions of a few DVD player applications have support for the COPP API. Since no HDCP ready content playback application has been released, the Windows testing can be done using a COPP filter, and a protected color bar video clip.

Computer #1 ­Target
OS: Win XP Pro SP2 SW: COPP Src Filter Video: R5xx,
RV5xx, M5x Driver: 8.20 or
later
TV Signal Scope (Optional)
HDCP ready TV
Monitor (Optional)
The basic test setup is to have the main display on VGA and extended desktop on the TV. However the test can be done with just the TV as the primary display
.
Setting up the target system
1. The target system should have the following pre-installed
WinXP Pro SP2
DirectX 9.0c
COPP SDK v1.0 (To install copy the sdk folder to target system)
2. Install ATI graphics driver version 8.20 or later
3. Extend the desktop onto the TV with either of the following methods:
If you have ATI control panel installed: Go in advanced view, then click the display manager aspect and drag the TV onto the second desktop and choose “Extend main onto HDTV”.
Alternatively, in Windows “Display Properties”: go in the Settings tab, click the “2” and check the “Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor” option by the bottom left.
