Known Issues

Key: [impact level][feature affected][affected version] Description

  • [cosmetic][webui][B2.1.2] RX video details doesn't update the TX IP address
  • [function][edid][B2.0.0] 4k24 EDIDs have values that report their native supported format as 4k30
  • [function][audio][B2.1.0] Source side HDMI changes from a resolution with audio to a different resolution without audio can cause a loss of Display side HDMI audio until the RX is rebooted (occurs when an AVR or matrix switch is used to feed a TX)
  • [function][flux] Workaround for Control4 Universal GC IR driver (TCP:4998)
    • Sending Sony IR strings in `Pronto` format works, but converting to Global Cache format by the driver does not set the repeat count of 3 that Sony needs
    • Modify Globabl Cache formatted codes received on TCP:4998 to update `repeat_count` to `3` (from Global Cache KB article)
  • [function][IGMP] `channel 0` command on Transmitter does not set channel to 0. Channels 1-9999 work as expected. This would affect Multicast systems being converted to VLAN, as AMP will not apply the command correctly
    • Solution: Send `astparam s ch_select 0000;astparam save;reboot` to each Transmitter
  • [function][AVP] VERSION_READ does not report the microcode version. It gives a line-break error, so it is not possible to check the microcode status.
