Gefen EXT-DVI-EDIDN cable gender changer Blue, Silver
Introduction
Computers can sometimes lose the EDID -- basically the electronic
identification of a display which lists its possible resolutions
and frequencies. When displays are switched away or disconnected
and then reconnected, the EDID can be lost and the computer can
lose the ability to display the image properly.
The DVI Detective solves this problem by memorizing the EDID
information. It does this by being programmed in a simple process.
Once the DVI Detective has the display's EDID memorized, it can be
placed over the output of the computer's video port, where it fools
the computer into thinking that a display is present, even when the
display is switched away to another computer.
