MConfig 621 hint

Scenario:

Primary connection = HDMI from source to HD621.
Secondary connection (for CD phantom source) = coax from source to processor D7.
SmartLink connection from HD621 to G68 MD1.

Problem:

MConfig selects the D7 physical (coax) connection and does not allow you to select the multi-channel input (MD1).

Reason:

MConfig latches on to a direct input from the source in preference to an indirect (i.e. via HD621) input.

Solution:

For any source connected to the HD621, don't make a secondary connection from source to processor. Fool MConfig by making the secondary connection to a "dummy" intermediary. I use my "Radiance" component that I've built into MConfig:

Secondary connection = coax from source to "Radiance".
Coax connection from "Radiance" to G68 D7.

You can now select either MD1 or D7 for the physical source.
