Does mixed reality headsets support hdcp?

I'm a developer of an est/vod movie store frontend and would like to develop a vr interface for our customers to watch movies. Our current development stack is html5, with playready and smooth streaming for encoding and DRM on Windows. Do the hmd, for example the Acer support hdcp through the HDMI cable?

Thanks,
Hugo.

    The Mixed reality headsets are entirely driven by the Mixed reality portal DRM cannot be implanted in the headset. HDMI cable only reads signal into headset firmware. The USB 3.0 port does the streaming, with out users names or codes or rights decode.
    SteamVR bridge only supports locking of the app not the VR content.
    The way most display app work is to watermark the display until the full version is purchased and the gives a feature of running DRM 4K Films. Unlocked from the 4k Blue Ray player

    Xbox one X does not lock media only by referring to the Windows Store who recently removed all Zune DRM films and music by January 2018.

    Unless even if you purchased film you downloaded the DRM free version by 2018. You have lost your digital purchased media

    All Zune DRM code has been removed from Windows SDK in 2017. Zune DRM source code, previously compiling will fail errors not implementation in VS2017

    No hardware support exists for DRM in Mixed reality.
    Mirroring in the MR Portal simulator can use the video camera to record anything as the port is built in software
