I have had a MAG254 for a few years but I rarely use it because of choppy video and lack of Dolby Surround. I have a 4K TV and a surround system that all the HDMI cables from the various sources connect to.
Can I find answers to a few questions? All Video/Audio connections are HDMI.
1: Will the choppy video be eliminated? (Crawls on the bottom of the financial and cable news channels are especially noticeable)
2: Will the TV shows as well as the movies be in Dolby Digital surround? (If available) My MAG254 provides stereo only.
3: Will Netflix and YouTube 4K Videos play in true 4K? Also will Netflix have Dolby Digital audio?
4: How does it play with HDCP? My surround receiver is not HDCP compliant but will pass 4K.
5: And a touchy question......Dreamlink T2 or Formuler Z7+? Which will work better with 4K? The Formuler has twice the RAM.
I have researched the 2 boxes and both say they both will do Dolby Digital audio but does the content provider actually send the Dolby Digital audio on the program and movies? (Rocket for example) I know Netflix does send Dolby Digital as well as HDR content and I see the box has an app for that.
Thank you for reading and your input.
