Movie downloaded cannot play

Can anyone help me? I messaged yesterday regarding the movie I just paid in Apple TV. It took a long Time for me to watch this as it is just black. Now, I am trying to watch this again and have less hours to watch this before the time is done for me to watch as I only rented this. There is another issue. I already watched this yesterday but now it is not playing. It says


The selected movie won't play on your display.


This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High bandwidth Digital Content Protection).


Can anyone help? Appreciate this.

Restart the notebook, as the error for lack of HDCP shouldn’t happen on the internal display.

Remove or disable any screen mirroring software, or remote access software, or screen recording software.

Temporarily remove any peripherals that may cause incompatibility.
