Your VA-1DVIN Virtual EDID

3.1 Defining EDID

The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID

) is a data-structure,

provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to a graphics card (that is

connected to the display’s source). The EDID enables the source (for

example, a PC) to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output.

The EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type, the timing

data supported by the display, the display size, luminance data and (for

digital displays only) the pixel mapping data.
