    Thinking about laying down some mula for the Index but I keep seeing all these HDCP threads saying people have had issues with the Index along side the Area-51m. Can those who have had no issues using the Index with the Area-51m please let us know what you did? Also those who have had issues please chime in as well. I have asked this a few times in the main owners lounge but no one responded. Thanks for any input.
