Optical sockets are produced in such large quantities that one would hope that they are not impacted by the silicon supply chain issues.As you suggest, contacting Chord would seem like a smart move for @opienor because it might turn out to be a simple fix at home item. If not then at least he will have explored that option.
However even when ordering presents online at the moment, I received email alerts warning that there are already delays of several weeks when shipping items between europe and UK. If there was such a delay shipping the MScaler to the UK, and then the same delay shipping the repaired MScaler back to opienor, then it could seem attractive to do a 5 minute repair at home, or alternatively wait until the end of january, when presumably the christmas shipping delays will be no more.
