Fix HDCP errors with the HDfury Integral 2

Typical symptom: your TV, AVR or projector shows “HDCP error”, a black screen, or picture that drops out when switching HDMI sources.

Steps to fix it

  1. Confirm the HDCP slide switch on the unit is in the correct position for your setup. The middle position (HDCP Auto / GUI) lets the Integral 2 dynamically pick whatever HDCP revision makes the signal work on both outputs, and is the recommended starting point.
  2. If your sink is older and does not support HDCP 2.2, move the slide switch to HDCP 1.4 so both outputs always encrypt at 1.4.
  3. If you need to force HDCP 2.2 wherever supported, use the HDCP 2.2 position; if the incoming signal is only 1.4, the output stays 1.4 too.
  4. Issue a Hot Plug Detection event: short-press the RESET button on the unit (or send it from the USB GUI, RS232, IR or the app). This forces the source to re-negotiate the HDMI/HDCP handshake.
  5. If the display still fails, power-cycle the Integral 2 by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB power cable.
  6. If you see a custom text message in the top-left corner of the OSD after a firmware update, hold RST and press INP twice, then release. The OSD will prompt for a power cycle; after restarting, the message will be gone.

Why this happens

The Integral 2’s HDCP Doctor provides six independent HDCP 1.4/2.2 decrypt/encrypt engines. Each input is decrypted first, whatever revision it is (1.x or 2.x), and each output can then be independently re-encrypted to 1.4 on both ports, 2.2 on the top port, or left unencrypted if the source signal was not encrypted. This is what lets you connect any HDCP1.x or HDCP2.x source to any HDCP1.x or HDCP2.x sink — but the slide switch (or GUI equivalent) has to be set to match what your specific chain needs.

Is the Integral 2 the right fix for you?

Yes, if: you have a mismatched HDCP chain — for example an HDCP 2.2 source (a 4K streaming box or UHD Blu-ray player) feeding an older AVR or projector that only supports HDCP 1.4, or the reverse. The HDCP Doctor is built specifically to solve this.

No, if: your problem is a bad or underrated HDMI cable, a source set to the wrong output resolution, or a TV that needs its own UHD Color / HDMI input labelling enabled — none of those are HDCP problems and the Integral 2 will not fix them by itself. Check the cable and TV settings first.
