Has anyone RECENTLY seen issues with Spectrum boxes not passing a picture? We've gotten multiple calls over the last few days from clients with existing systems where all of the other video components work except the Spectrum box. These are all systems that have been working for the last 6-12 months.

I'm waiting for more feedback but I think these are all systems with HDCP set to Auto (this was with new AV receivers before we figured out that you need to set HDCP for each video component and that Auto sucks).

Thanks

Ask them to unplug and replug the HDMI cable, if this resolves the problem (often does) the what you have is a Hot Plug/EDID issue.
Usually this will happen when the display is turned off for several hours, many displays will turn off EDID management but not the Hot Plug return. There is a solution if the unplug/replug works. It is our HDM-AIO2 which will allow for Hot Plug control.

This is where wattbox is your friend. Reboot tv & cable box will fix the issue.
Knowing that Gold went up a few K makes me think "well now I have to do a better job on selling more equipment".
