HDMI is designed to carry audio/video from an output device (DVR, DVD/HD/Blu player, PC) to a display with the possibility of an intermediary stop along the way for audio processing (AV Processor or Receiver).  It is specifically meant to NOT allow decryption of the signal by any device that may record/copy/mass-distribute the signal stream.  That is why there are no HDMI inputs on DVRs and Disc-Recorders and also why you won't see an HDMI input on any SlingBox product for quite awhile (especially not as long as Clip+Sling is around).  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[SHopkins]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 4th 2008 9:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox PRO HD, BlackBerry SlingPlayer hands-ons]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/04/slingbox-pro-hd-blackberry-slingplayer-hands-ons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/04/slingbox-pro-hd-blackberry-slingplayer-hands-ons/</guid><description><![CDATA[The HDMI spec itself has nothing to do with encryption or DRM. Technically, it would be just as easy to add an HDMI input to a DVR or Disc-Recorder as it is to add an HDMI input to a HDTV.<br><br>The real reason they don't is because of the legal pressure put on the manufacturers by the Motion Picture Association. It's all just plain, old-fashioned thug politics.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ohmaar]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 4th 2008 9:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox PRO HD, BlackBerry SlingPlayer hands-ons]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/04/slingbox-pro-hd-blackberry-slingplayer-hands-ons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/04/slingbox-pro-hd-blackberry-slingplayer-hands-ons/</guid><description><![CDATA[HDCP is part of the HDMI spec, so DRM and Encryption are actually part of the HDMI spec.  The MPAA no doubt had some influence on this, but it is there and part of the HDMI spec.  To get the advantages of an all-digital signal path you sometimes have to concede some of the freedoms you had in the analog world.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[SHopkins]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 4th 2008 10:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Slingbox PRO HD, BlackBerry SlingPlayer hands-ons]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/04/slingbox-pro-hd-blackberry-slingplayer-hands-ons/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/04/slingbox-pro-hd-blackberry-slingplayer-hands-ons/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, here I come, with the "S1ing5h0t"!
