That would depend on what the graphics driver considers a unique monitor. Usually each EDID would be considered a different monitor, so you can override just one of the EDIDs.

I don't see additional monitors created in Enum\Display in the registry, so I guess not, it only updates the EDID.
Comparing the contents of the exported .bin files I see that the first part of the file, presumably the EDID base, remains constant. What changes is the extension blocks. Which explains why it's not detecting additional monitors I suppose.

So, from your reply it seems that my assumption was correct. How about workarounds? The block I want changed is always present in every reported configuration and its contents remain static.

Any ideas for overriding a couple bytes and letting everything else pass through?
