The Black Box DVI-D EDID Ghost (VG-DVI) is a DVI display-configuration device that learns and stores a monitor’s EDID so computers can use suitable display settings; it’s suited to AV installers and IT teams managing DVI displays, switches, or computers that may otherwise lose display detection.
Recommended For
- AV or IT teams using a DVI-connected KVM switch or extender that hides the display’s EDID, causing a computer to fall back to the wrong resolution or lose its video output.
- Operators of DVI-based PCs or workstations that need a saved display profile so the source can boot with the intended resolution when the monitor is not reliably detected.
- Technicians troubleshooting DVI systems whose graphics cards deactivate a port or select a default resolution when the display’s EDID is unavailable.
- Installers who need to copy a DVI display’s EDID or select a listed resolution for a source in a fixed display setup.
