Guys - I get this isn’t necessarily the proper forum for this, but there are some really savvy people here, so I assume I’m going to get some advice.
I’m struggling with a nasty EDID issue that is plaguing my A/V setup. Thus seemingly started recently, but I can’t be 100% sure this wasn’t always an issue that hadn’t raised its ugly head.
Here’s my 2 Zone Setup: (All is current firmware)
AVR:
Denon X8500H
Sources:
2X TiVo Bolt
2X Roku Ultra
1 X Samsung M9700 BluRay
1 X Control4 EA-5 OSD
Cables:
Certified 4k 18gbps BJC with Ethernet
Extenders
AVPro Edge AC-EX100-444-KIT *Not gen2
Over CAT6a
100’ each
Outputs:
Monitor 1
Zone 2
Displays:
Samsung 75Q900R
Samsung 65Q9FN
Inputs:
HDMI 1 (Both Sets)
So per past posts, this problem started in early November. I had no idea, but seemingly Roku pushed out an update that caused things to do haywire. I have done as much troubleshooting as a human can do and I have reached out to all equip mfrs (each of course blames the other, but all agree it’s an EDID issue)
Roku replaced one of the Ultras and claims to have updated and tested my replacement piece. Did not solve.
AVPro sent me out new gen2 baluns - I have not installed them yet. Gen2 adds test patterns and EDID management switches.
TiVo always works, as dies the BluRay and the C4 OSD. Roku is very tricky. When I can get a pic, it’s fickle. Usually, lasts for a day or more, but always eventually fails.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Will the new AVPro gen2 EX100-444 baluns better negotiate a handshake?
This is so frustrating. I’m told that it’s the perfect storm of Denon/Roku/Samsung
