Adding support for Gefen ToolBox HDMI Matrix Switcher to RNET

We’re in the process of adding support for Gefen’s ToolBox line of HDMI Matrix Switchers. That includes their 4×2 and 4×4. It will be available as part of our HDMI Switcher Firmware.

RNET to Kaleidescape

We’re in process of adding support for Kaleidescape. That means you can control and get metadata to/from your Russound Whole House Audio system. Add another Myro:Bridge with HDMI switcher firmware and now you can distribute the Kaleidescape content as well.

We have confirmed that control and metadata can be sent to/from the Russound Sphere RFR-E5 RF Remote. Adding to the seamless control and integration of Myro:Bridge supported devices.

Adding Support for HDMI Switchers by Octava

PREVIEW: Myro:Bridge Firmware Update Tool

Here is a sneak peak at the Myro:Bridge firmware updater tool.  We’ve combined all the firmwares into one version so you can download and manage a single file.  Useful when you are on the job site.   Currently in beta testing and should be released in the coming week.

Adding Support For HDMI Matrix Switcher for Russound RNET Controllers

With component video becoming less available on video devices it’s time for a way to switch video via a Russound RNET based controller.  Solution — Myro:Bridge and a Wyrestorm MTA4T220 4×2 HDMI Matrix Switcher.  The firmware is being tested right now and should be available in the coming weeks.

This combination will allow you to setup which Russound zones you want to be mapped to which HDMI port.  Currently, you will be limited to selection/programming of 4 sources to 2 different zones as the most economical option is a 4×2, however, Wyrestorm offers 4×4, 4×8 and 8×8 models as well.
