The guys having trouble are using a compliant pre-pro in the 8802A and have tried it with any number of full-bandwidth cables. The problem occurs when they switch HDR on. Of course there is a workaround, but not being able to switch your video sources with the pre-pro is both limiting and a major PITA.

Likely all of this will be settled over the next year (if not the next few months via firmware), and by that time there may even be HDR content worth speaking about. In the interim it looks like a good opportunity for me to enjoy the system I have.

Thanks for that info, I curiously looked into it and found the 8802a has a big issue with HDR though it's supposed to be compliant. Marantz definitely knows but I didn't find anyone who has had a fix yet. Several people were able to get their display to play HDR by bypassing the 8802a, so it has been isolated to that unit. So before I go changing processors for the sake of modernizing research will be required to be sure no issues are out there.
