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?
