Maximum USB
bandwidth
Because of USB bandwidth limitation, you cannot stream simultaneously two
1080p60 videos over USB. However, for example, these combinations will work:
Input 1 at 1080p50 and Input 2 at 1080p30.
Both Inputs at HD resolutions, such as 1080i60, 1080p30 or 720p60.
Input 1 at 1080p60 and Input 2 at 1080p25.
And all other combinations at lower resolution or frame rate.
The internal scaler can be used to reduce the resolution and frame rate of
the input if necessary.

2-channel LPCM 48kHz audio from Line input or embedded in HDMI
