Is a HDCP license needed for ConnectCore i.MX6?

Some of the Digi ConnectCore i.MX6 modules, e.g. using FreeScale i.MX6 QuadCore CPU, do have hardware support for High bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) e.g. for HDMI.

If you use this feature in your end product you need to get HDCP license from Intel.
If the feature is disabled or not used in firmware, no license is needed.
