You may not know the answer to this but looking at some of the info for EDID, I am confused what the static EDID in tthe HDS-42AVR buys you.

All the video processing is between the source components and the switch and the switch and the TV. The only video flow between the 975 and the TV is it OSD.

Is this more to do with audio capabilities between the source devices and the switch that are passed off to the 975?

Just curious if you know.

It is exactly to do with the audio connection to the 975 from the HDS-42.

Thanks, I've seen that and even corresponded with Sean at Transformative. Just trying to figure out why the "generic" unit goes for $449 or so but the Outlaw version is $179. Is someone taking a bath on this unit or is it way overpriced for non-Outlaw usage?

It appears the Outlaw version will only work with the 975 vice the Transformative version works with all sorts of devices.

That's my understanding as well. Still doesn't quite explain a price difference of around 150% more (off the top of my head) for the non-Outlaw unit, unless there is some magic in the way more expensive unit that I'm missing.

The product page description could use a little tweaking to specifically say that the device does not work with non-Outlaw processors. The way it reads it can be misconstrued that while it is specifically geared towards the 975 it isn't exclusive.

Transformative Engineering has introduced an HDMI switcher that allows older processors to integrate into a 4K/UHD system. Transformative and Outlaw paired up to release an Outlaw edition of the HDS-42AVR that works with the Model 975 only to allow four 4K/UHD inputs!

Because the Outlaw version is limited in scope. It ONLY works with the 975 so it costs less as it has less functionality in the larger marketplace.

Respectfully, still not buying into that as an explanation for such a HUGE price difference. Not looking for an argument, just my opinion. Just for fun, here's a "switch" I can get for $449 that does one or two other things as well (yes, I know it's a refurb, but still...).

I think I may have been wrong once or twice in my life, so I'll go ahead and assume this might be the third time. ;-)
