Hi there,
Can anyone please tell me if you need to run the Gefen HDMI detective out of the HDMI output from the clux 11sa mod to keep the multi channel audio stream going?

Also, exactly what cable is used to connect the clux with a G68,G61,or 568.2mm. I have read something about a cat 5 or 6 twisted something, and also the "breakout to VGA connector" which are not the same thing. I know the 568.2mm has the multichannel input module (MHR), while the G68 and G61 have the MHR and possibly discrete 3xspdif inputs as well.

Since I already have a clux, and the mod kit, and someone to do the mod, my thoughts are to take my HDMI sources, such as a PS3, and HD-DVR to probably a generic, or octava (smart sync) HDMI switcher, then on to the clux mod, into a 568.2mm, and on to my newly upgraded 24/96 DSP 6000's left and right, my 24/96 dsp5000c that I just received and upgraded the firmware at home from 4.04 to 5.11. Finally the rears are good old m60's.

My non-HDMI sources (Wii, xbox) can just be sent on directly to the video (Samsung HL-67A750) directly, and the audio 568.2mm (or G68, G61) directly. The children are the only ones that do the gaming anyways, and they are pretty good with a little bit of switching.

When you have a moment, can you tell me if this makes sense to any of you, and what other available options would be? I know about the edge, but believe that a generic HDMI switching for under $200 would be better for me since I already have the clux. I do realize that any switcher must be HDMI 1.3 or else you will lose the lossless audio stream. For example, DVDO has many B-stock switchers for $500 to $600 dollars that retailed for up to $3000, however only the edge and the pro-50 are HDMI 1.3 compliant.

Thank you in advance for any advice you may offer.
