Display port converter?

[Harlequin]

Hi all - im looking for a displayport 1.4 (or hdmi 2?) active converter that can change to a display port 1.2 (and yes hdcp 2.2 complient)

Hi,

Curious as to why this is needed - isn't DP backwards compatible?

DP1.2 isnt HDCP complient and thats all my 4k screen has. ALthough i have found a HDCP 2.2 > HDCP 1.4 HDMI converter but it only does 4k@30hz not the 60 thats DP does

what GPU (I take it you're not trying the Voodoo5 )?
How about an HDMI to DP converter like this (if I'm understanding the directional bit right!)?

i`ve found one - its an active converter - can convert HDCP 2.2 so it can be played on HDCP 1.4 screens , perfectly legal as well, as its not stripping the HDCP out of the signal.

Could you say it's description please so I can look it up?

I've got a 4k monitor. HDCP 2.2 only over hdmi, freesync only over DP. And it's a pain. A single cable solution would be brilliant.

Its HDMI based although the company are working on a DP version - it also works at 18G 4:2:0 as well so 60hz could well be doable;
