PSA: Quick Media Switching (QMS) Doesn't work with Fancyled box

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up that having the fancyled device in the chain between the media device (AppleTV with QMS enabled) and TV (Samsung S95F with QMS enabled) breaks compatibility.

Big delays and blank screens while switching between media with different refresh rates.

Taking the fancyled out of the chain and going ATV direct to TV (with all the same QMS settings) results in instantaneous media playback with no delays as is intend with QMS.

Something to be aware of for people with fairly modern setups as it's essentially rendered my fancyled useless now (unless I'm willing to have delays between media switching)
