NOTE: A power supply cannot be added to the HDfury Gamer Edition cable due to the all-in-one sealed design.

We recommend that the new HDfury Gamer2, HDFury III or IV with power supply be used for all other setups.
More info:
- What is HDfury ?
HDfury is a tiny external add-on card/adapter that you can hook up on any RGB display through its SUB-D HD15 Female Input.
Once screwed, it becomes a "part of the display" itself and will permanently perform an outstanding HDCP modification. Therefore, you can connect any HDMI source in Full HD 1080p to your now "enhanced" display hooked up with the HDfury module !
- Why do I need HD(720p) or Full HD(1080p) ?
Well, you dont need it. But you may want it ! (Read our Introduction to HD)
HD-DVD&Blu-Ray players, HDMI graphic card, PS3 and X360 Elite, SAT receiver and HDTV channels set-top-box, all of them are able to unleash their true potential (720p/1080p mode) only through HDMI output.
If you want a valid ticket for the Full HD world you either need a compatible display(with HDMI input) or a solution for your existing display. (Read our HDMI/HDCP definition)
- Why do I need a HDCP compliant display ?
HDMI is a new standard that comes with hardware protection called HDCP.
If your display doesnt have a HDMI input you wont be able to display 720p/1080p signal on it (from HDMI sources).
Prior to exchange Data Video, HDMI source is exchanging keys with HDMI display.
Both have a special HDCP chip embedded. If your display doesnt have it, even if its technically able to display 720p or 1080p signal, it will display a BLACK SCREEN.
On Playstation3 for example: 1080p mode is only available through HDMI output
Read about the HDCP displays nightmare and find out if your display is affected.
- What can I do if my display is not HDCP compliant ?
You can buy a new display with HDMI input or use a HDCP stripper/converter box
They will extend video link to a "man-in-the-middle" device which will remove HDCP protection and output Analog RGB.
Some issues with those HDCP stripper/converter box are the following:
- They need extra wires, such as Power Supply, extra analog cable.
- Most of the time, switches or settings need to be tweaked.
- Quality is limited and restricted because of longer analog link (need of VGA analog cable)
- They are not compliant to HDCP rules as they allow easy access to decrypted analog video.
