# Input config
# Recommended gpio pins for "input active" are 32, 35, 18, 22, 16, 19 and 21

# announcemediatype determines the player used

# Switcher can use "ir" or "gpio" or "i2c"
# IR uses a TX on GPIO pin 12
# GPIO uses pins 36, 37, 38, 33, 31, 29, 23, 24. Can be enabled with ir or i2c
# i2c uses FMS6501A on Output channel 1
# activeinputhold (yes/no) means that lower priority inputs do not get replaced by higher priority (except pri 1)
# Show Quad is yes/no and overides activeinputhold

# Number of available inputs does not include the controller, so is max 3 for a 4-input switch
availableinputs=3
activeinputhold=no
# Set next parameter to no if you do not want (or do not have) a quad display

 Note that there is scope for confusion between the numbering on HDMI switches and the numbering that the repeater controller uses.  The repeater controller HDMI is fed to Input 1 of the HDMI switch, but is known in the config file as Input 0.  Similarly, the first receiver input (in this case the 70cms Ryde) is fed to input 2 of the HDMI switch but is referred to by the controller as input 1.
