How do you disable HDCP on the PS3?

-

I have a capture card that I want to use to record some gameplay footage. I was able to find the option on the PS4 to disable HDCP and this allowed me to record gameplay, but I can’t seem to find the same option on the PS3. How do you disable HDCP on the Playstation 3?

when the PS4 was released it had HDCP enabled and it could not be turned off. There was a patch released to remove HDCP from the PS4 a long time ago now.

It is not possible to disable HDCP on the PlayStation 3 and likely never will be possible. If you want to be able to record gameplay on the PlayStation 3 you need to use component cables. If you use a capture card like the hauppague one for gaming it will give you all the cables you need to be able to record PS3 gameplay footage.
