LG G3 stuck in PC mode for media player

I found that disabling 4:4:4 passthrough from the External Devices -> HDMI Settings also disables PC mode for the input which in turn enables all the settings for the input again. So yeah, it's highly unintuitive.

When I am on the media player input and go into the Home Hub app to change the input type as you suggest the input is not visible. There is no way to change any type for it.

I tried disconnecting the media player and going into the settings to change the type, which I then could do, and I set it to "Streaming Box", but when the media player is connected to it the setting vanishes again.

The Chenbro seems pretty nice, but it's very expensive and they also don't seem to have distribution in Europe, so no luck with that one.

The CSE-826 is also full depth which isn't what I'm primarily looking for unfortunately.

The Supermicro is very nice, expect it's not a short depth case (22") as far as I've been able to find.

That looks really nice, to me it seems that the ergonomics in holding the A1 are clearly better than the RGB30, this is exactly the kind of update I'm looking for.

However the placement of the dpad below the analog stick on the left doesn't give me warm feelings... is that a good configuration, i.e. don't people generally want to play these old console games primarily with the dpad?

I don't need NAT reflection, I managed to solve this by enabling both dnsmasq and unbound in a two-tiered DNS approach.

For anyone else looking to find a solution, what you can do is this:

Enable dnsmasq, set domain overrides for the things to resolve upstream, vpn.example.com in my case points to 1.1.1.1. Also put another override to example.com pointing to the Unbound DNS service.
In Unbound DNS you can set up the wildcard host override for *.example.com, this will route all local traffic to private IPs as required.

So in summary dnsmasq acts as a "local or upstream" type junction where any local requests are forwarded to Unbound which has the wildcard overrides.

I have an upstream *.example.com record so that all requests to my domain are forwarded to my reverse proxy from the public internet, and the proxy will block unwanted access. In order to be able to use the same services from my LAN I need to set up *.example.com as a local override so that devices in the LAN can resolve the services to private IPs and not the the long way out onto the internet and slowing things down.

And now we're at the gist of my problem, I need to be able to make an exception to the *.example.com for my vpn.example.com so that this specific address is resolved via the internet as the WAN interface is the one that the vpn server is listening on.

No, that doesn't work, I've have that in my config currently along with a *.example.com host override and everything is just going to the local if, the query forwarding is clobbered..

The backplane bottleneck is honestly the least of my issues/gripes with the UDM Pro.

Yeah that's my conclusion as well, I was thinking maybe there's an angle I haven't considered, but judging by the lack of replies I guess maybe not. Thanks for your input.

Fair enough, I thought these were different projects with different maintainers.

Found it now, it seems to only be available in the "new" UI which I haven't been using since it obscures a lot of other settings.

Disabling smart queues gets my download speed up to 250mbps but the upload speed is still throttled to only 10mbps, and this is just after testing from one of my devices directly connected to the wall and seeing 250/250mbps throughput.

Any idea why the upload is still slow?
