ITunes will only let me play the movie on the built-in screen on my (non-Retina) MacBook Pro, which is smaller and lower-resolution. Make sure the entire window is on the supported display. Try moving the iTunes window to a different display. This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). The selected movie won't play on one of your connected displays. (This refers to the High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection encryption scheme).
This is not a television set it is a peripheral computer monitor.įor the first time, I tried to play a movie purchased and downloaded from iTunes on the external monitor, and I got an error message in iTunes saying that this is not supported because the Mac cannot verify HDCP support for my configuration. I have a (non-Retina) MacBook Pro (mid-2012) and I have just purchased an Asus VN248H-P external monitor with HDMI input, connected to the MacBook Pro with a Monoprice Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI cable.
