On site struggles with a previously working planar wall via Mac mini > Datapath FX4

Long story short, did a Planar LED wall years back , Mac mini m1 with Switchres X running a custom 1920x1350 resolution. Mac goes thunderbolt > hdmi into hdmi 3 of a Datapath Fx4 HDR, then that cuts the image into two halves @ 960x1350 each and sends two outputs (1&2) into two Planar S6F led senders respectively.

Worked flawlessly… until their IT department went and updated the machine to Tahoe OS and now I can’t get the output to display properly , it’s just a black screen.

Verified the signal from the planar LED senders (S6F) is good, if I plug the Mac straight into each sender I get a clean image on the wall. I cannot however get an image properly from the Datapath outputs.

According to the status page of the Datapath in wall designer the ins and outs look fine and are showing the correct signals but I’ll be damned if I cannot get an output to show up on the wall.

No clue what’s changed in this update or if that’s even what’s causing the issue… any advice or suggestions greatly appreciated .

Questions about entertainment offerings on Celeb Edge class

I’ve done four Oasis class Royal cruises over the last 3 years (3x utopia , 1x allure). My gf and I just got off Utopia a couple weeks ago and had a great time.

I’ve got the itch to just try something new next time when I do my next no-kid cruise and I’ve been eyeing Celebrity, preferably an edge class, maybe the Beyond on a 4 night out of Florida. I like the idea of improved food / drinks and a bit more luxurious vibe.

I keep seeing reoccurring things about “less entertainment “ or worse entertainment compared to Royal and I’m just curious what exactly that’s in reference to… less live music around the boat ? Less / worse theatrical shows or interactive shows? Entertainment is pretty broad spectrum.

I’m by no means a stay up all night and party in a night club type person but we usually like to catch live music and drinks or a theater show or comedian each evening and prob don’t go to bed till like 12-1 am, I’ve heard a lot of people say that the ships kinda die out in the evening hours after 10-11.

So I guess I’m mainly trying to see what exactly the differences are in the way of “entertainment”. I don’t really care about slides or flow rider or zip lines most of the time but a good seated show and live music or something to do after dinner is definitely preferable .
