I still wonder if the Fire TV HDMI would recognize an AVR or pre/pro as a display device, without the need for the actual display to be powered on. For example, when I connect my laptops HDMI to my pre/pro, the laptop indicates the pre/pros model number as the connected display, because it is receiving the HDMI signal. If I get a Fire TV, Ill test this. Anyone with the Fire TVs HDMI connected to an AVR or pre/pro could also test this.
I would be using the Fire TV with a front projector, so would not want to fire up the projector just to start the Fire TV. However, if I only need to turn on the pre/pro no big deal. My library is 100% 16/44.1 flac files, so I could set the SB Player output accordingly and hope that the Fire TVs optical outputs an unmolested 16/44.1 PCM signal. My DAC displays sample rate, so I would at least be able to verify the 44.1 kHz sample rate. Hopefully, the Fire TV doesnt resample to a set sample rate, like the ATV does at 48 kHz. As a side note, I would assume that the Fire TVs optical is capable of outputting 48 kHz, since that is the standard for audio soundtracks from video content. How does the SB Player handle replaygain? A 24 bit or 32 bit volume control within the Fire TV? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adam2434's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17301 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98049
