CORIOview & CORIOgrapher: Dynamic Mode Help
Adding and managing custom EDID files
You can upload an EDID file saved to your PC to your CORIOview™. You can manage the EDID files saved to your CORIOview in CORIOgrapher™.
You can only upload custom EDID files for sources.
You might want to upload a saved EDID file if a source, for example, a PC, is using the preferred resolution from CORIOview rather than the resolution you selected for the source device. This can cause unexpected effects. You can create an EDID file for the resolution you selected for the source device, and upload it to CORIOview.
EDID files must:
- Be a binary EDID file
- Have a filename in 8.3 format
- Have a .edd extension
- Have a filename no longer than 8 ASCII characters
Risk of unexpected results
CORIOgrapher does not check that a custom EDID file is valid or supported. Uploading an invalid or unsupported EDID file can cause source loss and unexpected results. Creating custom EDID files is an advanced task. If in doubt, contact a qualified AV professional.
Before you add custom EDID files or remove saved EDID files, we recommend that you make a backup copy of your configuration.
Risk of losing EDID data
Firmware version M407 contains updates to system EDID files. When you've updated from version M406 or below to version M407 or above, do not restore a backup from a lower firmware version.
-
In CORIOgrapher, select
> EDID Manager. - Select Install new EDID.
- Select Select EDID file and browse to an EDID file on your PC.
- Select Start install.
Risk of unexpected effects
If you delete an EDID file that is in use and then reboot your CORIOview, your CORIOview says it is using the deleted EDID file but is actually using the default EDID file.
Take care to not delete EDID files that are in use.
- In CORIOgrapher, select > EDID Manager.
- Find the EDID file you want to delete.
- Select Remove.
