HDMI <> HDCP You don't _have_ to have encryption to be HDMI certified, so the existing framer is OK. But you still need to be certified and pay a royalty if you want to use the HDMI logo. At my day job we ship several products with non-encrypted HDMI, all of which are certified and use the official HDMI logo (and yes, we pay royalties to the HDMI folks).
If you want to support encryption, in addition to being HDMI certified, you also have to license and go through the certification process for HDCP. That is *MUCH* harder than the process for HDMI certification, and would likely be virtually impossible for an open-source platform like the BeagleBone. Even if you switched out to the HDMI chip that supports encryption, the raw video signals are available on the expansion header, which is a *BIG* problem for HDCP certification!
