I'm trying to distribute a 4k video output (no audio, it's an output from an NVR) to 4 TV's. 3 are 4k and one is 720p. Need a 1x4 splitter that can give 4k to 3 and 720p to the 4th output. What do I need to look for in specs? I thought auto EDID was what I needed but my partner said no, it's going to drop all to 720p. Is this true? If so what do I need? Is this possible?

I believe Metra Home Theater will have what you want announced at CEDIA.
Technology is cheap, Time is expensive.

AVPro 1x4 [Link: blackwiredesigns.com]

Plus this scaler you'd put on the 720P device [Link: blackwiredesigns.com]

An EDID managing switch alone will not solve your issue you need a video scaler for the lower resolution display.

Its going to be way cheaper to swap out the 720p TV

Metra will absolutely have this device at CEDIA.

edit: These are already in-stock at Metra....MSRP on this in a 1x4 I believe is $140.
