Good stuff, I do have some issues sometimes when switching to Switch on my gaming monitor. Hopefully this will fix it!

I used to have problems with my TV changing channels every time I turned the Switch on (and with it turning on by itself). Until I started holding the power button and turning it fully off every time (and also bought a different HDMI switcher).

Dude.. Don’t not update because a feature like that is removed. In that case it would be temporarily and likely for a good reason.

Will this update allow other HDMI methods to be applied for the Switch like third party USB-C to HDMI adapters and other docks that aren’t from Nyko?

There was few of those “travel “docks”” on kickstarter that were using some basic chinese USB-C hub.
I don’t know if just any hub will work though.

Not likely. They use different technology.

Which shouldn’t make a difference. It’s probably under certain method lockdown which shouldn’t be the case. Like I use other USB-C cables to try to charge it and it won’t work unless it’s plugged in it’s own adapter and that’s horseshit.

You misunderstand, the encoding protocol and decoding and converting chips used are completely different. So different technology certainly DOES make a difference. They’re incompatible.
You might not like it, but that’s how it is..
Charging with other USB-C chargers does work on the Switch, even powerbanks work. In TV mode however it won’t work with all adapters because it requires a bigger charge..

I got the update already.
