HD Fury 8K Arcana VRR 40Gbps arcana2

Powerful tool. Use the discord channel to get help.

No matter what I do I cannot get an apple TV - Sonos - Samsung TV system to work. Once everything is dialed in, the setup works great -- for a few days. And then, randomly, either sound is completely gone until I unplug the arcana a few times or tv is stuck on no signal found page. Tried every suggestion by support (they always send you the same copy paste response and I've never seen them helping anyone resolve their issues in their discord), CEC is turned off, updated software, no fix yet. This copy paste response doesn't help anyone. Your product does not work. There's always an excuse. First you said it is the CEC, then you ask for some info that doesn't help you debug anything. The reality is this product does not work and what happens to me is the expected outcome. You have to regularly power cycle this thing for it to work. This is definitely not a buy and forget product. An overpriced, overpromising HDMI switch.

Pricey but does what it says and then some. Easy install and very responsive.

When it worked it successfully fixed the lip sync problem I was having with my TV and Sky Q box. However, it was flaky and would lose sync and need frequent re-boots. Too expensive not to work 100% of the time.

This is based on the 8K version as I used a 4K display and want dolby atmos+hdr and all that good stuff without any bottlenecks. I cannot say fot sure if the the normal HDFury would be enough. Audio works fine and "COMPLETELY FIXED" the notorius lipsync issue whe connecting a non-HDMI Input soundbar to a pc. Wish it let me run my computer at 144hz refresh rate but 120hz cap is still fine. This allows me to have no more OCD trying to find that perfect audio delay speed setting in video players trying to get audio to match the lips which I swear is impossible to achieve.

UPDATE: Still love it, but here's the link to the manual that SHOULD come in the box but doesn't. https://www.hdfury.com/docs/HDfuryArcana2.pdf ORIGINAL REVIEW: i have an older Sony TV that for whatever reason only plays Dolby Atmos on Netflix (not Max) using the native Android interface. Like almost all TVs, even the newest ones, it would not pass through the Atmos signal from the Apple TV 4K (ATV) to the Sonos Arc speaker. I really wanted Atmos with every streamer, not just Netflix, and I prefer the ATV interface. Much online research suggested a brand new TV, using the native interface (not ATV) or if using ATV, this very expensive HDMI splitter. Good news is, IT WORKS, but it is definitely NOT plug-and-play. No manual in the package, just a very tiny QR code that leads to a bad PDF of confusing pictograms and broken English. The tiny LED screen on the Arcana is difficult to read and often unclear on options and making selections. Best advice: go to some AI search engine like perplexity.ai and ask how to connect it. Specifically, turn off the autoplay previews in all your apps, and on the Arcana audio set-up do NOT select "Sonos arc/beam", but rather some weird setting that is a jumble of letters with "auto" is in the middle of it. It took me about an hour of rebooting the various components (Sonos Arc, ATV, Sony TV) with different settings, but it finally started working with Atmos on all streamers, not just Netflix. The Sonos app will show "HDMI" as source with a tiny Dolby Atmos logo. GOOD LUCK! I'm no AV techie, but I got it to work. Phone a friend might be another option. :) 5 MONTH UPDATE: Works great with occasional lapses that require checking the audio setting to make sure it's still on AUTOEXEC and of course the good old unplug it and plug it back in.
