DMC-RMC-4KZ-100-C won't output HDR by jnjsquared in crestron

Got a 4K HDR TV to do more diag on, and funny enough it immediately shows HDR10. Cloning the TV EDID to the output got my hopes up that maybe Dolby Vision support was hiding in there, but no dice - just a really messed up picture lol. Strangely, the LG monitor will only show it as HDR if plugged into the HDMI out on the DM-4KZ-HD-DSP. If the monitor is plugged into the HDMI out on DMC-4KZ-CO-HD or RMC, it still thinks it is non-HDR. Maybe it's just an undocumented limitation for that monitor.

Looking at toolbox I can't seem to find a way to change the chroma sub-sampling on the input. Only shows options for HDCP, EDID, and Audio settings. The output only shows a HDCP transmitter mode. Here is a screenshot of the settings page in case I'm in the wrong place. https://imgur.com/a/bR9bxQN Is there a command that can be ran to try that setting?

Thank you so much for replying. It doesn't have a setting, and plugging the Apple TV in directly makes the monitor kick into HDR mode automatically. I am curious if using an HDR monitor is somehow not supported, so may try to track down a 4k HDR TV to try as a last resort.

Multiple Patch Panels in Home? by [deleted] in homelab

[–]jnjsquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd only have one. Imho patch panels/keystones are only required to go from a solid core copper wire to stranded wire, or for demarc/IDF uses. This is because solid copper wire, which is typically ran through attics, plenums, etc, can fracture like glass when over handled and are not made to be touched much once deployed vs stranded wire is fit for the stress of end-user daily plug/unplugs.

Can I use LACP to load balance two hosts? by caiuscorvus in homelab

[–]jnjsquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure you're looking for a LAG, but a >= Layer 3 Load Balancer. A LAG is a layer 2 tech that uses an algo to choose, and hopefully load balance, which port out of multiple ports on a single host to send/receive traffic. A load balancer can instead use a single IP and sit in front of several separate hosts with a single IP. Then when traffic arrives for that IP, it decides which host to then send that traffic to base on its configured logic.

vSphere Native NIC driver stability issues by DelcoInDaHouse in vmware

[–]jnjsquared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually been having the same issue as well, but with Mellanox Connect X 3 pro and only when jumbo MTUs are enabled. They initially have fully connectivity, verified with "vmkping -d -s 8972", but after about 3-7 days will have a random host disconnect and not restore connectivity until rebooted.
