I have emailed Westinghouse to see if they offer any firmware updates for the LVM-37w1. I have had trouble using the 1080P DVI input with devices with HDCP. The top of the line D-VHS had to be connected using the component inputs. I have also read articles and reviews that other people had problems connecting HDCP devices to Westinghouse 1080P monitors like HDTV cable boxes and PLAYSTATION 3.
I hope Westinghouse offers a firmware update to fix this problem or I will need to some day get a new monitor. Back in summer of 2005 it was the only monitor that had a 1080P HDCP input, but if you can not connect anything that uses HDCP the digital input is useless unless you want to connect a standard DVD player that does not use HDCP. In theory they could apply a firmware update at the factory by RS-232 connection to fix this problem if a update is available.
