1069 480i HDMI bypass issue
I brought this up in another thread but it is becoming more annoying to me. Why is it the 1069 does not bypass 480i? I do not want to be forced to use a deinterlacer/scaler in my source components. If I send 480i to the 1069, the resulting image looks horrible. Could this possibly be fixed by Rotel with an update?

I don't think so. The Faroudja chip they have in there will always de-interlace. I believe it has to do with the A/D conversion in that video section. I know, it sucks. I spent more money on a BD player to get a better scalar because of it.

Then why will it pass 1080i ?Comment

Because it's an HD signal. The only resolution it won't leave alone is 480i. One of the guys in tech support may be able to answer it better than I can. Send them an e-mail and ask them why it's only 480i it won't pass through.

I'll try that. I just have not had great results the last couple times I emailed rotel so I was hoping for some more info here. I will give it a go. Thanks.Comment

Try techsupport@bwgroupusa.com instead of the normal address. The limitation is present in a lot of scaler chips found in blu-rays and upscaling DVD players.

One more question before I email BW. Did they just give up on fixing the scaler? I mean I have heard it said that it is stuck in RGB and that is why but I have players where you can switch to RGB and it does not make the image look like that.
I am considering getting a DVDO Edge now.Comment

Problem solved for lots less then the edge unless you are after the video processing.
IMO the 1069 will never get a firmware update which will let it bypass 480i.Comment

I may give that some thought Nolan. I have been wanting a DVDO Edge for a while but could probably use to save the money.Comment

The 1069 has the video bypass installed yet continues to cause problems when the Motorola HD DVR is routed through it.
The problem I have is with the 4:3 override setting on the PVR.
When the box is powered up or the display turned on or the 1069 turned on or any of these... -
Let me start by saying that I have never been completely satisfied with the sound of the 1069 .I have always felt that there was something going on with it.When I first brought the 1069 home for audition I loved it.Then it was sent off to have the bypass board installed.When I got it back it just did... -
I have asked Rotel this question but have never recieved a response.Why does the cd,tape, or any analog input on the 1069 sound different in bypass than the multi channel input in bypass?
I have tested both inputs and it is clear that there is a difference.I used the same same cables... -
I just purchased a new Rotel 1069 processor at a great clearance price. Unfortunately, I have been unable to display a satellite TV image correctly.
I have my satellite receiver (motorolla/starchoice 530) connected using a DVD-HDMI adapter to HDMI input 1.
It displays the source but not... -
Ok, here are my problems.
1. I can't seem to get digital audio out from the 1069.
All of my analog signals go through just fine. (tuner, cd player. etc...)
I have a cable box and PS3 both hooked up to the 1069 through HDMI cables (cables are 1.3a certified.)...
