If it's an option in the BIOS to enable then that means it actually has SGX as long as the CPU supports it which mine does as it's a 7700K, I just can't use PDVD to play back UHD as I only have the GTX 1060 available
well adbear has no way of confirming that to be the case, since PDVD won't even try to start playback unless it detects a compatible gpu
Hi, forum ASRock confirmation mainboard Fatal1ty Z270 support HDCP 2.2 via MegaChips MCDP2800BC:I went through three of the on-line manuals from ASRock for their Z270 boards and it clearly states that they are SGX capable. (bottom of page 58)
I also sent them a message asking them what version of HDMI is on the board and if it's HDCP 2.2 enabled.
Note that it does say that the HDMI on the board is 4K@60Hz. so it probably is HDMI 2.0, but I would still like to confirm it with ASRock.
Here's an example.

With all this, with out any actual video cards being able to play UHD Blu-rays, I'm not interested at all really.
I was hoping that AMD's Smooth Motion could be implemented for some FI, but at this point that isn't happening, maybe in April or May...

It's one of the few boards that supports all the requirements for UHD Blu-ray, unfortunately it to small (Mini ITX with only one PCI slot).Hi, forum ASRock confirmation mainboard Fatal1ty Z270 support HDCP 2.2 via MegaChips MCDP2800BC:

No I can't. My laptop has no way to enable the iGPU nor does it have anything attached to the iGPU to give output. My laptop uses a GTX 1060 and only has access to that.Adbear has the hardware: he just has to enable iGPU on BIOS, I did it last year it's easy. You can output from both GPUs at the same time.Then run an HDMI cable from the Intel GPU to a screen and he's ready to go
From what I can see that's the only Z270 board that Asrock make that has HDMI 2.0 or above. All the others appear to have 1.4 as they only do UHD up to 30fpsHi, forum ASRock confirmation mainboard Fatal1ty Z270 support HDCP 2.2 via MegaChips MCDP2800BC:

What I find disconcerting is that a lot of the new Z270 chipset boards only have HDMI 1.4 on them so even if you have a new CPU and motherboard, chances are you still can't use PDVD 17 to get an output unless you pay for a higher end board
Where did you get the information that Polaris supports PlayReady 3.0 ?Regarding the GPUs it seems to be the same farce as with Netflix 4k as both Pascal and Polaris support PlayReady 3.0
That's the first write up I've come across where it even mentions PlayReady 3.0 and Polaris all in the same paragraph _ thanks for the link.https://m.heise.de/newsticker/meldu...rce-1000-und-Radeon-RX-400-nicht-3505452.html
...but didn't do much research to be honest.
Afair AMD will hand it in later with a driver update.
