What is the difference between EDID and E-EDID?

EDID was formed as a standard to help PC monitors report their capabilities. E-EDID is an extension of the EDID specification used traditionally by consumer electronic devices to illustrate more advanced features. For example, PC monitors generally do not support audio, so a traditional EDID structure would not account for this, whereas an E-EDID would. The requirements for a consumer electronics device’s E-EDID are available in the CEA- 861B specification (www.ce.org). The requirements for a PC device EDID are available from VESA (www.vesa.org).
