StarTech.com EDID Emulator for HDMI Displays - Copy Extended Display Identification Data - 1080p (VSEDIDHD)

Product Information

Prior to the development of EDID, pins 4, 11, 12, and 15 on the VGA connector were sometimes used to define monitor capabilities. These ID bit pins carried either high or low values to define different screen resolutions. VESA extended this scheme by redefining VGA connector pins 9, 12, and 15 as a serial bus in the form of the DDC - Display Data Channel. This allowed for much more information to be exchanged, so that EDID and other forms of communication were possible between the source and the display. In the world of A/V, there are numerous standards, protocols, and different AV features that work based on them. And they keep evolving into a new generation for better performance and higher efficiency. Dr HDMI 8K acts as an EDID manager, HDMI/DVI-D emulator and repeater that comes with pre-defined presets, user programmable banks, Sink EDID sniffing bank, HTPC mode and more ! Dr HDMI 8K Key Features:

reduces potential for incorrect settings that might compromise the quality of the display or the reliability of the systemWith the Easy EDID Creator (PC software) the users can create their own EDID by completing four simple steps. More experienced users can use the Advanced EDID Editor software to manage every possible setting in the EDID, which they can upload to the memory of the EDID Manager.

allows your computer to detect displays that are connected to it, enabling plug-and-play capabilities Dr HDMI 8K can also boost signal integrity and extend +5v signal through a HDMI/DVI-D chain. For example, it can work hands in hands with HDfury products to extend compatibility range. It can also be used to limit the source output resolution. The solution is to change to a KVM switch that has built with the EDID emulation or add an EDID emulator to your setup. 3. Other benefits of using an EDID emulator. Remote Management: An EDID emulator can be used to remotely manage display settings. This can be particularly useful in digital signage applications, where multiple displays may be located in different areas.EDID is a VESA standard data format that contains information about the display’s manufacturer, screen size, native resolution, color characteristics, frequency range limits and more. Once the source receives this information, it can then generate the necessary video characteristics to match the needs of the display. EDID is often used with a computer graphics card as the source device. Additionally, HDTV receivers, DVD and Blu-Ray players, LCD displays and digital TVs can read EDID and output the required video format. What Is DDC (Display Data Channel)? Shall include Extron EDID Minder® technology for automatic management of EDID communication between connected devices
