Hi John,

Forget 421 or 422 - How about 424 or even 425 - better to have too many than too few!

It seems a little crazy to me that M, as with many high end manufacturers, have persisted with a single HDMI output on their players and newly introduced HDMAX. Ignoring the issue covered above regarding the output of music and video seperately how about addressing the needs of people with more than one screen to feed.

I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting both a projector and a flatscreen on the wall for more casual use. Then there's the smaller LCD screen to display the video feed from DVDA's to aid navigation without the need to fire up the main screen/s. Finally, how about the HiDef LCD in the toilet so I can quickly switch from the main screen when dying for the loo in the last 5 minutes of the FA cup final!

I may have taken this a bit far but you can see my point. M gear is expensive and I imagine a high proportion of their customers could and would exploit this and I cannot see this being an awfully expensive addition to the HDMAX. It would also be nice to see M introduce something that appears to be unique - although the new Chord Media engine has 2 outputs....

Presumably this would also aid the custom install market too?

Cheers

Simon
