Luckily, I called Focus Enhancements before purchasing the CenterStage CS-1 and learned that it CANNOT be upgraded with HDCP despite the user's manual stating that it "features optional HDCP compatability" (online User's Manual v2.0 page 13 & 28).
I had called to determine the CS-1 HDCP option retail price before buying the processor. The Focus technical suppport person said that the option does not / will not exist.
I hope other AVS forum members have not purchased the CS-1 based on the featured HDCP upgradeability option. Focus technical support said the CS-1 online manual was incorrect but showed no urgency in correcting the mis-information (they would not provide a timeframe for the corrections).
Now, I will consider the CS-2 (with HDCP) or a competitor's product.
