EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data is used by
the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display then from this information the source will
discover what the best audio and video resolutions that need to be output.
While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play procedure, issues do arise
when multiple displays or video Matrix switching is introduced because of the increased number of variables.
By pre-determining the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time need for EDID
hand shaking thus making switching quicker, and more reliable.
Configuration of Matrix EDID settings can be acheived in one of three ways:
1
Using Matrix web browser interface
2
