Can you leave the gun and take the cannolis?
Put in the C4 you know, with the matrix he has and add local Rokus?
Not sure how much of your quote is video distribution vs control.
Then when the DirecTV or Matrix etc need to go, you're half way there and established with the system. Maybe he later cuts the cord and it all goes away.
That's the crappy thing, all the URC works, at the moment. My idea on the quote was 10k for video and 5k for control, plus a lot of fluff for misc parts, programming and labor. But hey, he would save $20 bucks a months if he ditched 2 of the 4 DTV boxes! He is a boomer guy, so I don't see him cutting the cord.
To add sources locally could work, but I would have the problem of sending audio back to the rack for the main 2 video zones. I don't know if there's extra catX wiring.
Thanks for all the input, guys!
