2.5.44 IDeckLinkHDMIInputEDID Interface

The IDeckLinkHDMIInputEDID interface allows configuration of EDID parameters, ensuring that an attached HDMI source outputs a stream that can be accepted by the DeckLink HDMI input.

An IDeckLinkHDMIInputEDID interface may be obtained from an IDeckLink interface using QueryInterface. If QueryInterface is called on a device without HDMI input, then QueryInterface will return E_NOINTERFACE.

The EDID items will become visible to an HDMI source connected to a DeckLink HDMI input after WriteToEDID method is called. The EDID settings of an IDeckLinkHDMIInputEDID interface remains active while the application holds a reference to the interface. Releasing IDeckLinkHDMIInputEDID interface will restore EDID to default values.
