Does anyone have any idea, how Firmware update for Arc cards work? Any hidden release notes for what the firmware fixes? HDMI Protocol converter (PCon) firmware update does really need an active HDMI monitor connectivity, otherwise it wont update? What does that HDMI Pcon firmware fixes? VRR compatibility?
