Is there a way that Samsung developers can expose the DDC/CI feature channel for changing the input source.  I currently have two video inputs through PIP with my keyboard and mouse connected.  Whenever I want to use my keyboard and mouse on a different input I have to physically select the button on the monitor to change the input source for the keyboard/mouse.  I would like to see if its possible to expose the DDC Feature for USB/KVM switching.   Other monitor manufacturers expose this via 0xE3 or another channel.  For the amount of money that is spent on this I would hope its a quick implementation by Samsung developers to give users a better experience.  If you look below I can change the input video for the screen, but not the input source for the keyboard/mouse.  Feature 60 is for the video, but the feature is not available for the input source(keyboard/mouse).
