If only there were some sort of Professional Association of Integrators..... who would pressure the HDMI consortium or at least put forth our voice......
You know, instead of the one that currently tells us how to "deal with it" via multiple adapters/best practices etc... to accommodate the moving target given us. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate the existence of those adapters and the manufacturers who support us, it just seems that there could be some sort of class action brought upon the consortium on behalf of the public (consumers) who are sold "capabilities" only to find out that there are many "incompatibilities". And now that 4k displays have reached the tock bottom price of a few hundred dollars, the need for several hundred in fixes/pars to make it work properly....
