KB article on DVD copy-protected error
We have a new KB article that I alluded to yesterday.
Microsoft.com, “The DVD may be in use by another application or it is copy-protected” error message when you try to play a DVD in Windows XP Media Center:
This problem may occur if the following conditions are true:
- You are trying to play a DVD that has protected content.
- A high-definition television set is connected to your computer by using a component video cable.
- Your television is set to a resolution of 720p or 1080i.
My take on this is that you shouldn’t be using component :). For the best experience you should be using a DVI connection.
