Fork maintained at https://github.com/rpavlik/edid-decode
The upstream project is now active again: edid-decode
Please direct your contributions there.
This friendly fork worked when I used it last, but I lack the capacity to maintain this on my own in any reasonable sense.
This fork is unmaintained.
A friendly fork of the upstream edid-decode tool (formerly maintained on freedesktop.org with XOrg), with an emphasis on dealing with/providing useful info on displays (especially HMDs) seen in the wild, and running nicely on Windows.
Intermittently rebased on the upstream source (with some commits reverted as required), and incorporating patches from the wide "network" of this tool (Mandriva, other GitHub repos), as well as my own patches.
Each time I update the upstream base, I create a new branch, to avoid force-pushes.
Note that the upstream repo is much more active now than it was when I first created this fork (at which point it was mostly unmaintained), so the changes here are likely to get out of date quickly.
For a complete list of changes, please see the commit log:
each commit contains as complete of information as possible on their source.
Commits not otherwise attributed were written by myself (Rylie Pavlik).
The master branch is left synced with whatever the upstream master branch was
at the last time I updated this repo.
My own changes:
- Open EDID files in binary mode, for those of use using the tool on Windows. It does build just fine with MSYS2/MinGW-w64.
- Add some scripts for building and for using on Windows.
- That includes this readme file and some utilities for formatting it,
including a bundled copy of
markdeep.min.jsfrom https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/, which is subject to its own license, found in themisc/folder in the source or bundled with a binary.
- That includes this readme file and some utilities for formatting it,
including a bundled copy of
Patch sources besides myself:
- Some commits cherry-picked from https://github.com/mike-bourgeous/edid-decode ; just a normal git cherry-pick so the original commit info is still intact. :)
