Actually, the problem is that it *isn't* loaded with DRM-ification, but
anything you likely want to capture over HDMI (aka commercially produced
content) most assuredly is DRM-ified.

"The HDMI standard can include copy protected encryption, such as DVD
players. The Intensity card therefore will NOT capture from copy protected
HDMI sources. Always confirm copyright ownership before capture or
distribution of content."

This product is for editing your own home movies over HDMI interface.
