I have no idea who GROBI.TV is, but apparently they got it to work and think the issue can be corrected via firmware:
Firmware of the graphics card? Not a practical solution to this problem even if this were legit. All graphics cards and consoles are not going to get a firmware update to be able to play nicely with these AVRs. Since they all work just fine going directly to TV, the problem is unlikely to be with the graphics cards or any HDMI source that can output 8k@120 HDR.
Even if this can be achieved via an inverse firmware fix at the HDMI receiver in the AVR, not all the firmware on a multi-component device like an AVR is necessarily field upgradable for that particular faulty firmware depending on where it is embedded. May require a HDMI transceiver card swap with new firmware or with a fixed chip.
Don't know if Anthem tested this for their decision to hold back on the 8k for their new line up or they just got lucky.
