edid
The edid command is used on the Makito FX to set the advertised preferred resolution as part of the EDID (Extended Display Identification Data). This allows users to control which resolution is received from the connected video source device. Even though the default EDID information on the Makito FX advertises most of its supported video formats, some sources do not allow the proper selection of an output resolution and will always send the same output format, discarding the user selection. Selecting the right EDID is a way to limit the video source in terms of its choices so it that is more likely to send the desired video format to the Makito FX.
Note
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure provided by a digital display to communicate its capabilities to a video source device.
