OT - HDBaseT alternatives
Look into Kanexpro. They have a new modular switcher series. I use their other gadgets and they seem to work really good. No problems.

I love J.A.P. but would hesitate to call that "full HD distribution" as it re-encodes everything, only supports 1 form of 3D video and doesn't support high-resolution audio. The price is right, though.

Binary does not make a 16x16 to my knowledge. Can you link?

I just wanted to confirm how the Leaf handles multi-channel audio sources if say you have a LED TV on out 1 and a surround receiver on out 2? Will it present a stereo drain to the source?

The only product that I have seen do this is the DM card frame systems.

It only can be fully compressed HD. I love the system for ease of use, but have mixed feelings in regards to pq. Saludos, Regards, Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Bart J.

From what I am told, they use a visually lossless compression. Something
like one pixel per million is lost in the compression. This could be some salesman myth, but that is what they tell me. I have had some televisions try to enhance the picture when it didn't need to be enhanced. A TV setting fixed that no problems.

Why do you say alternative to HDBaseT? Then you say alternative to Crestron? Did you mean you want an HDBaseT solution that is not Crestron? While I do think that Crestron DM is the Rolls Royce of digital switchers, there are many others available with HDBaseT that will do the job minus a few features that DM offers. But if you don't need the features and price is a factor there are others to consider:

Zigen - they offer a wide range of switchers and many HDBaseT extenders. I have used these in projects and they worked great. They have a modular 8x8 switcher that is card based so you can buy the frame and populate as needed. Great if you need an odd configuration like 8x4 and don't want to spend the money for a full 8x8 when you don't need the extra outputs. Email me offline if you need pricing. Wyrestorm is great and has a wide range of products, but not the cheapest of HDBaseT manufacturers. Altona is good as well and fits a nice middle ground on price. Binary is very nice and also good on the price. I have a Binary 4x4 HDMI in my personal theater. RTCom (digital extender) makes a nice switcher that has a good price () Options are fewer once you go into the 16x16 and higher range. RTCom makes a cardframe based 18x18 that can hold a mix of HDMI, DVI, CAT6 and fiber cards. () Email me offline if you want pricing. Aurora Multimedia has cardframe based switchers in 8x8, 16x16 and 32x32 sizes that allow you to build based on the type of inputs/outputs you need.

That's correct. The Leaf product will strip stereo audio from an HDMI or Digital Source. But won't down mix the surround audio to stereo.
