There is quite the thread on the Anthem D2 over at AVSFORUM with all kinds of discussions, including the handshake problems and what can be done about it.
Receivers/Processors and HDMI Repeater Error
Do any receivers or a/v processors hande the HDMI repeater error? I hade tried Denon, Yamaha and Sony, some said that the Anthem AVM-50 handle it - by activalting a setting that makes it pretend that it is a display. But it is a little pricey for me.
Are there any other options?
