Thanks for your response. I read the 976 manual and it appears, as you state, that both hdmi outs could support a video image but my responses from Outlaw support would not say this for sure. To take this issue further, could the 976 take any hdmi input and output through both hdmi outputs. At present both my TV and projector are not 4k and I would not be playing an image at the same time-either one or the other. I still have gotten no response from Marantz about the ability of the SR5015 to output images on both hdmi outs. Because of the covid they do not take take in person calls.

However, it may be a moot question because both the 976 and SR 5015 are "Out of Stock" with no date of availability.
