NOTE: All other HDMI-capable devices/displays connected to the Output ports MUST be compatible with at least one resolution/audio format specified in this EDID. It is recommended to set a commonly supported video resolution and audio format on the source device, to be shared by all attached devices/displays. This is to ensure that a compatible signal is output to all connected devices/displays.
