## EDID examples for V4+
## Force 1080p by defailt on PiKVM V0+
PiKVM can mimic physical monitors. You can find the appropriate EDID in [this database](https://github.com/linuxhw/EDID) and import its HEX code to PiKVM. Choose something with a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 or 1920x1200.
PiKVM V3 (or DIY V0-V2) has a hardware limit of 50Hz for 1080p mode, and this is a less common frequency than 60Hz.
Therefore, on V3, the default mode is 720p. Some OS (like Proxmox) may not work well with 720p,
so you can force 1080p resolution by default:
```console
# rw
# kvmd-edidconf --import-preset=v3.1080p-by-default # Or, for example, v1.1080p-by-default
# reboot
```
## Disable 1920x1200 on PiKVM V4
PiKVM V4 supports the advanced capture mode of 1920x1200. If it bothers you
(for example, if you use a physical monitor 1920x1080 with [video passthrough](pass.md)),
you can easily disable it and use only 1920x1080:
```console
# rw
# kvmd-edidconf --import-preset=v4plus.no-1920x1200 # Or v4mini.no-1920x1200
# reboot
```
## Other EDID examples for PiKVM V4
PiKVM V4 can mimic many physical monitors. You can find the appropriate EDID in [this database](https://github.com/linuxhw/EDID) and import its HEX code to PiKVM. Choose something with a maximum resolution of 1920x1080 or 1920x1200.

## My monitor does not support the 1920x1200 mode
PiKVM V4 supports the advanced capture mode of 1920x1200.
If your physical monitor is limited to 1920x1080, then part of the image from the bottom will be cropped.
To avoid this, you can change the resolution of the host OS, or if the OS does not support this,
disable the 1920x1200 mode on PiKVM itself:
```console
# rw
# kvmd-edidconf --import-preset=v4plus.no-1920x1200 # Or v4mini.no-1920x1200
# reboot
```
