Also, Monster makes an HDMI switch that can learn the IR commands sent from B&amp;O. The Monster switch takes a little programming, but it could be a cheaper alternative. The Monster switch can also be used for seamless switching, controlled by a BeoSystem 1, when someone wants to make an HDMI video connection to a tv when using a BeoSystem 1.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>Re: XtremeMAC HDMI expander to BV10https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/276454.aspxThu, 20 May 2010 15:44:51 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:276454Hiort0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/276454.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=276454<p>Thanks,</p> <p>Its good to know that any switch can be used.</p> <p>Does anyone know if the XtremeMAC is a good quality expander?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>Re: XtremeMAC HDMI expander to BV10https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/276438.aspxThu, 20 May 2010 14:28:27 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:276438KingOfSnake0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/276438.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=276438<p>My experience has been with the Gefen that the Gefen PUC in the STB-List must be selected to allow additional PUC controllers - the BV10 does care if it is a Gefen switch!!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>XtremeMAC HDMI expander to BV10https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/276400.aspxThu, 20 May 2010 09:06:26 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:276400Hiort0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/276400.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=276400<p>Anyone that have used the &quot;XtremeMac XtremeHD HDMI Switcher&quot; to a BV10?</p> <p>Gefen HDMI expander is quite expensive.... so I &nbsp;thought of searching for alternatives.</p> <p>I assume the BV10 does not care if its a Gefen Switch or not.
