[QUOTE="Craig Hauber, post: 89599, member: 272"] Re: Switching for video I've had that too using a monoprice 4X4 HDMI matrix switcher. Except it was really pink almost purple and there was no other color on the screen -like B&W TV except only pink instead of white. I had to power everything down (physically disconnect power as Sat boxes, TV's and monoprice switch never actually turn "off" 100%) to get it all to return top normal. After a few switchings it would re-occur. I ended up putting an EDID manager box (Audio Authority 1322d) on every source. still doesn't work as smoothly as analog used to. Lately I try to do as much "switching" in software using Keynote or Q-Lab and then connecting to the projectors with VGA (sad but true) Component video works good too as you can get HD resolutions and older blu-ray and sat boxes have it also -this of course will only work as long as they don't start restricting the output resolutions on analog connections. All of my clients don't notice any analog picture-quality issues but are very happy with instant switching and no handshake issues. It helps with good cableing and keeping mind of native resolutions.
