_at the moment_ you are correct....

Watch this space :-)

Keith, what is the current action list? I'm guessing that:

1 - IR "back-transmission"

2 - Switcher

3 - Digital stream transmission

in distributing AC-3.
Presumably at the moment, the only solution is to distribute the
decoded 5.1 audio channels via a couple of audio only tx'ers?

cheers &amp; hi all,

Tony
