About FOD Premium, FOD's all-you-can-watch service and monthly plan

FOD Premium is a video delivery service operated by Fuji Television Network, Inc.

Once you subscribe to FOD Premium, you can watch as much as you want of the more than 70,000 eligible titles, including free delivery of missed programs on TV, original dramas to past dramas, variety shows, animations, and domestic and international movies. The price of this paid plan is 976 yen (tax included).

About FOD Rental Movies

FOD rental movies are movies that can be purchased using coins purchased each time or points granted as a membership benefit.

There is a fee for renting movies. A separate subscription is required to use the all-you-can-watch service.

Can I record FOD contents?

As it turns out, FOD content cannot be recorded.

You cannot record FOD contents such as FOD Live TV, and even if you use a recorder or other device, the screen will go black.

The recording screen went black! Why?

HDCP is the cause.

HDCP stands for " High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection," which in Japanese is a copyright protection technology that aims to "prevent unauthorized copying of digital content.

In short, it is a technology that prevents the copying of digital audio and video content that is connected to an HDCP connection. Connection types include DisplayPort (DP), Digital Visual Interface (DVI), High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), Gigabit Video Interface (GVIF), and Unified Display Interface (UDI), and other less popular or now obsolete protocols.

To put it more simply:

HDCP-enabled services such as FOD can only be played on HDCP-enabled terminals; HDCP-connected video cannot be recorded."

This means: "HDCP-enabled services such as FOD can only be played back on HDCP-enabled terminals.
