By managing which displays are used for the EDID calculations, you can maximize
the resolution of each source while ensuring that the source can be shown on each
display where it is needed.
The EDID calculations also affect audio formats. Each HDMI receiver sends its
supported audio formats to the source in the following format:
<Format> <Maximum # of channels> <sampling freq supported>
For example, a 5.1channel audio processor may have the following audio EDID
information:
•
Linear PCM, 2ch, 32/44.1/48kHz
•
AC3, 6ch, 32/44.1/48kHz
•
DTS, 6ch, 32/44.1/48kHz
Under “Best Common” and “Best Overall”, the same rules apply to audio as video.
For more information, refer to the Crestron Toolbox help file.
