Can I detect whether the video display on a windows PC is HDCP enabled in c#

Question

I am developing a WPF application which will play a protected video in a windows media player instance. I have to ensure that the display device is HDCP enabled before playing the video. If the device isn't HDCP enabled, video playing is not allowed.

How can i do this in c# in WPF application?

Answer 1

Silverlight has VideoOutputConnector.CanEnableHdcp but AFAIK in WPF you have to use interop.

Here's an MSDN article on using Output Protection Manager.
