Hi Andreas,
since the summer months are approaching quickly and thus lots of time
to thouroughly drive tests for the next term, I'd like to ask: what
is the schedule for the next release (hopefully containing both the
fixes for resolution changes and for CA stability; thanks for the
great work/efforts done here).
There will be no fixes for the epiphan device regarding resolution
changes in 1.3.1 that are not in 1.3.0 already. And the API for the
epiphan devices has some bugs that we can not catch every resolution
change. So you will need the scaler.
BTW, to those using scalers + VGA2USB LR: do you also notice that the
Epiphan devices heat up, because they now *always* get a signal and
thus *always* need to work? Or do the StarTech scalers offer an option
to loop thru the "no signal", so that the devices get a rest?
As I have mostly old VGA2USB LR devices with separate power supply, they
always heat up with scaler or without. This gives the devices a very bad
lifetime (4 out of 10 broken after 3 years). The StarTech scaler works
quite well for us and we will use it in all rooms in the future...
