One caveat of these dummy plugs is that they don't do HDCP. They handle the typical use case of forcing a specific resolution output for headless machines rather well, but fail for the use case that you need to run something that expects HDCP.

This seems a good place to ask: does anyone know of a good solution like this HDMI dummy plug, but that negotiates HDCP? I need to test video streaming apps that require HDCP to play at full resolution, but it is inconvenient to have a full TV for every test.

The one solution I've found is an HDMI multiviewer, which seems to negotiate HDCP to each port individually.
