Do their newer 8x16 models down-mix audio as well or just pass along the extracted hdmi-audio?

Our 4K boxes have been installed for much longer, before the IP-driver was stable. I’ve just started messing around with viewing our camera feeds, which requires accessing the HomeKit interface for the first time. Might need to give it a go. Thanks

Thx @msgreenf What about the newest official IP driver? Thinking ahead for adds that may not have easy access to an emitter.

Does the default IR-driver have access to the new'ish TV-button (mostly long press) from the Apple Remote? The Menu button brings you back to home, similarly to it, but cannot access the HomeKit submenu.

Thanks to some surprisingly quick delivery via USPS, a replacement power supply has resurrected my old matrix. If the $90 part gets me another 7-8 years or service, will be very happy. The biggest pain was keeping track of and maintaining clean wiring when taking it out of the rack.

Thanks for all the feedback. One quick question regarding the Triad matrix's...did they EOL the 24x24 and replace it with the 16x16?

As the topic states, my audio matrix decided to take a dirt-nap yesterday. As a first step, I'm going to give an attempt at replacing its power supply. If that doesn't work, have folks had decent luck with used ones or should I just step up to the newer Triad AMS16? Is the sound quality and additional feature set worth the purchase? Thanks for the feedback.

That pic unfortunately isn't accurate for the newest 2022 generation. Its directly above the green dot, the emitter is almost flush with the top when turned sideways.

@Cyknight - Thanks for the suggestion of leveraging the status light to track down the sensor. For anyone else dealing with the similar exercise, the ir-reciever moved to just below the top edge of the case, basically directly above where it used to be on the left side.

I had an AppleTV die and purchased the most recent version (128gig w/ ethernet) as a replacement. Did Apple change the location of the IR receiver on the front? I cannot get it to respond to any commands from the IR flasher and have tried many locations. My installer insisted on using IR to get around prior IP-control issues. The system is still running fine otherwise on an HC800 (most recent possible sw version), would it even support to new native IP control? Thanks for the help.

Did your 4Sight subscription expire?

To complete the circle here, I ended up getting a really good price on https://atlona.com/product/at-hdr-m2c/ and swapped it in for the Amazon sourced converter. Beyond the obvious build quality improvements, being able to adjust 2-channel sound levels via the web interface is nice feature.

Not sure how Apple implemented, but I was able to successful test out directly launching apps on the atv 4K via the Shortcuts app in iOS.

Has there been any investigation into implementing shortcut behavior now that iOS added "Open App on Apple TV" as an action? This has routinely been a key feature in the preference in using Roku boxes.

Had time over the weekend to test out https://amzn.to/2q64FYj The good news is that it does correctly pass through the digital signal via HDMI and convert the signal to stereo via the headphone jack. The sound level via the headphone jack is very low though. Output level from the built-in rca jacks is better, but isn't usable if the source signal has voice dedicated to the center channel. All the TV's in rooms with distributed audio throughout the house have their audio out wired back to the c4 audio matrix and volumes are normal when routed this way. Initially our vendor tried using this method instead of extractors, but we kept running into issues with the hdmi matrix locking video sources to certain rooms. This also wouldn't work for our outdoor setup that was installed later on. A bit back to the drawing board now.
