Quick question, I have 2 monitors, 1 HDCP compliant (Samsung 225BW) And 1 not (Viewsonic VP930b). Now if I play protected content at full resolution (1080p or whatever) assuming I have an HDCP compliant video card, what happens with the content?
Does it play at full resolution on the Samsung but if I drag it over to the Viewsonic does it get downgraded? Anyone had any experience in this area?

Thanks,

BTW, the tinfoil hat wearing, Vista DRM and microsoft is evil naysayers need not reply.
