    Looking for new HDMI Switch

    Just take note, optical outputs/inputs do not have the bandwith to carry the newer audio codecs. It can carry DD+ 5.1. John does have a point but I haven't found a good avr with pre outputs, lots of HDMI that now need to be HDMI v2.0 (or even HDMI 2.0a) & HDCP 2.2 so you can use it with 4K for...

    ULTRA HD PREMIUM Logo Specs

    The peak brightness of 1000 nits and black level less than 0.05 or peak brightness of more than 540 nits and black level less than 0.0005 ! That HDR spec is way out there. Not sure if the top of the line Samsung (JS9500 ?) with the curved screen , can meet those specs. But not having/paying...

    Well, they got the specs now for displays to earn the "stamp/logo" : ULTRA HD PREMIUM This doesn't mean that our SUHD monitors are "junk" that we just bought......just don't meet all the specs. Here's a link to the specs: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/2 ... Experience

    Auro 3D vs DTS X and Dolby Atmos

    Remember when soundhound told us that 98% of the info for DD was thrown out. I'm pretty happy with my little 5.1 system at home.

    Slingtv

    ^^ Haywood, the 3.7mbs is what is the best in their SlingTV settings. The best bandwith for Roku 4 in its settings is 3.5mbps down to 0.3mbps. Here's the "secret menu" for setting/checking your bit rate for the Roku : Home 5x, Rewind 3x, FF 2x My TWC internet speed is 100mbps and in my boom-boom...

    Roku 4

    Yeah, the HDR is still all up in the air right now. They say the Roku 4 will feed HDR with a firmware update and I think Samsung SUHD's can be updated with firmware, but who knows. I'm just waiting on 2016 when they have switches/splitters because I don't want to buy another receiver right now (...

    Slingtv

    Update: SlingTV freezes/buffers alot (about every 15 to 30 minutes during the bowl games) on the Roku 4. I found out from a forum member at avs that all channels freeze when using Roku 4/SlingTV. I will join the group that has a issue with SlingTV tech support. Might be dropping it after the...

    Roku 4

    Just chatted with monoprice. They don't have a HDMI v2.0 that is HDCP2.2 compliant at this time. Guess maybe next year when the UHD 4K bluray players are out there may be more options.

    Roku 4

    Scott, I think they all agreed on the HDR codec in the last couple of months so now all the manufacturers are designing their 4K disc players which may start showing up early spring. I'm not in a hurry to get a 4K HDMI splitter & not going to spend $200 to get one because there isn't a ton of...

    Roku 4

    Got an email from Tech support from Panlong, "unfortunately, they don't offer any splitters that support 4K and HDCP 2.2 right now" Still waiting on monoprice to answer my email.

    Haywood's Updated Main System

    While I'm checking for a HDMI splitter, I saw where they have yet decided what HDR will be universal for all manufacturers including the new disc players which have been said might come out mid year 2016. Pray your set lasts like you want.

    Roku 4

    Thanks Pauly ! I have an email to monoprice about their products and also to Panlong. That other splitter, Revesun, is made & shipped from China, so I'll wait and see what monoprice or Panlong suggests.
