Will this 4x4 matrix work with 1920x1200 (16:10) displays and/or 2560x1440 (16:9 1440p) displays? The manual says it can "copy out A/B/C/D" with the last four EDID settings, but I want to be sure.

BEST ANSWER: I own 8 of these switches for my home studio. Each switch can uphold 4 4K monitors or piggy back to another switch to more monitors of other resolutions.. The problem is the video card on the pc. I strongly advise two good video cards to keep stable pictures on the screens. Once the video cards are correct the matrixes have no problem with the video stability. I use the switches for video production which does require rapid refresh rates like gaming does.

Yes. This is a Matrix device, not a switch. So you can route your source input to any --or all-- of the 4 output ports.
Said another way: you can direct your source input to 1, or 2 or 3 or 4 output ports (displays) all at once.

Can this 4 x 4 matrix switch be used in conjunction with a Blackbird 15376 4 x2 matrix HDMI switch without remote control problems? Specifically, are the remote controls different so that the remote control for one wouldn't inadvertently change a selection on the other?

BEST ANSWER: I bought the 4x4 matrix switch and found that its remote control and that of the 4x2 matrix switch do not interfere with each other. By the way, the 4x4 remote control is a higher quality remote and has separate buttons, not just bumps like the small remote for the 4x2.

BEST ANSWER: It comes with 2 small square metal pieces in a plastic bag. I assume they are for rack mounting, but I didn't use them.

I have four displays I would like to connect to this matrix - two of them are 4k/60 and the other two are 1080p/60. Will this device output 4k/60 to two outputs and 1080p/60 to the other two outputs simultaneously? Some literate in the manual leads me to believe it will not achieve my desired function "you should choose an EDID in which all the settings are supported by all the displays."
If anyone can confirm I would greatly appreciate it.

I have 3 video outputs 4k and one 1080. along with and 4 inputs in my motorhome. Will this pass through Dolby Atmos to my soundbar? If not any suggestions?

Does this 4x4 support 1080p at refresh rates higher than 60hz? E.g. 120hz or 144hz. As an HDMI 2.0 device it should, but wanted to confirm.

Excellent HDMI Matrix!
I've been very impressed with this 4x4 HDMI Matrix. I have only used it with 1080p sources, but everything was self-explanatory as far as setup out of the box and operation goes. There is no noticable lag for playing video games.
All in all, this is well worth the price!

Blackbird useful to get any audio/video to any device in my recording studio
I just purchased my 8th Monoprice Blackbird 4K 4x4 HDMI Matrix for my video studio. I integrated it today as the switch between the camera & the monitors and also the PCs with the recording software.
Fired right up and the picture off my 4K video camera was outstanding.
They also made the unit more compact which is great as it is placed next to my camera. They took off the manual on off switch and the remote is now required for power up & down.

Go for it
This unit actually works with 4K. The validation takes place flawlessly across any number of source devices to display devices. It handles all the variations of HDR accurately also.
This is my 3?rd HDMI switch over the past few years. This time, the technology ( affordable technology ) has come of age.
This is a great unit - go for it !

High Quality Matrix Switch
The 4x4 matrix switch works as expected. The remote control is much better than the small remote that comes with the 4x2 matrix switch.
The only issue I noticed was that half the pages in the printed users manual were blank! Among the missing pages was the one that explained the positions of the DIP switches. Of course this caused no actual problems since the user manual can be downloaded.
