particular the detailed timing description blocks. The list displays all of the

 

formats that the DCH3200 could read, up to a maximum of 12 formats. If

 

the DCH3200 cannot read any formats, EDID Data is blank. An asterisk (*)

 

after the aspect ratio means the DCH3200 supports the format. If more

 

than twelve video timing formats are discovered, the supported formats

 

only are listed first, followed by up to twelve remaining formats.
