Connect EA5 to component matrix


niall

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I've got to connect my EA5 to a leaf component matrix switch.

I've got a HDFury to do the physical conversion, but wondered if there was a dummy driver I could use to connect the output from the HDMI on the EA5 to the component input on the matrix.

Think I remember reading about a dummy driver, but can't for the life of me find it.

thanks,

Thanks so much for the quick reply.

I just found this http://www.houselogix.com/shop/universal-control4-adapter-driver

Would it be a better option?

I use this one all the time and name it whatever conversion it is doing. Works well, and don’t have to create “adapter” drivers all the time or remember what I named it when I created it.

Sorry to resurrect this old thread. I'm having a similar situation. EA-5 and have a component matrix. Have an HDFury to make the physical connection work. 

If you were to use the houselogix driver as suggested above - how would go about linking things so you are able to select the EA-5 as the On Screen Device?

Nial - how did you end up solving the problem?
 

Any help would be much appreciated.

I ended up using the Path Setter driver to represents the HDFury.

So I put the input to it as the component and the output as the HDMI, just like you have physically with the HDFury.

No other config was needed.
