    Release date: 2015-07-27
    New feature:
  • Added support for MX-HDMI-3D-STEREO-ADDON v20.
  • If the temperature of the TPS or TPS2 card increases above 80C, it is logged into the SD card.
  • Added support for MX-TPS2-IB/OB (and variants).
  • Added support for MX-3GSDI-IB v20.
    • Bugfix:
  • Some residual power from the output cards (from the connected sink devices) could keep the CPU alive in MX-FR80 and MX-FR65 frames even after removing the AC cords. This resulted false alarms on the LCD and in the log files. This condition is detected and handled now.
  • Emulated EDID is updated now if the source user EDID is changed.
  • The appropriate validity flag is set when a user EDID changes.
  • Improved error notifications on the 2 and 4 line LCD.
  • AVI Infoframes were set improperly on MX-3GSDI-IB. This caused random video drops with some displays.
  • MX-HDMI-3D-OB and MX-TPS-OB could not handle if one of the DDC lines was broken. It could cause VTASK RESET and SII9575 errors. Fixed.
  • MX-FR80 logged a false "MTRI setXpoint" error after crosspoint switching.
    • v3.4.5b1
    Release date: 2015-01-28
    New feature:
  • Factory default IP can be set with controlboard buttons.
  • MX-3GSDI-IB converts every video signal to RGB444.
    • Bugfix:
  • Alphanumeric charachters in the factory EDIDs (like display name field) were not padded properly.
  • Analog YUV support has been removed from the basic EDID structures of factory EDIDs.
  • From now on MX-DVII-HDCP-IB and MXD-UMX-IB cards always send 24bpp signal into the crosspoint switch. The 36bpp signals caused signal integrity problems in some rare conditions which could result in audio popping noise.
  • Factory EDID revision number has been set to 1.3 instead of 1.4 now. This may prevent compatibility issues (usually the source didn't see the connected device as audio capable) with old graphics card drivers.
  • Plugging a monitor into the FR80's Preview Output caused reloading of factory default EDID to all inputs
    • v3.4.4b3
    Release date: 2014-10-08
    New feature:
  • UMX-TPS devices handle the command channel even in disabled receive mode, serial packets are discarded.
  • Logging data extended, if VS100 holds I2C SCL line down. VS100_getHpdStatus function added (previously this register was checked in handler periodically, but it was removed in order to reduce the number of remote read transactions to prevent VS100 I2C lockdowns).
  • IP configuration via RS-232.
    • Bugfix:
  • VSNACK and SII9575 errors fixed on MX-TPS-IB and MX-TPS-OB.
  • TPS write functions fixed in disabled receive mode.
    • v3.4.3b2
    Release date: 2014-06-27
    Bugfix:
  • A rare ADM1063 false alarm has appeared on the LCD or sometimes the internal voltages were reported improperly. Affected frame: MX-FR80
    • v3.4.2b3
    Release date: 2014-05-26
    New feature:
  • MX-HDMI-OPT-OB supports HDCP auto/always function now.
    • v3.4.1b4
    Release date: 2014-03-31
    New feature:
  • 4-line LCD display improvements.
    • Bugfix:
  • Some monitors that do not terminate the TMDS lines in standby mode, could not wake up from this state, when input signal was connected through MX-HDMI-3D-OB or MX-TPS-OB. This issue is now fixed by powering up the output ports not only when TMDS termination is present, but also after a hotplug event. Affected cards: MX-HDMI-3D-OB, MX-TPS-OB.
