You can craft one directly here or use sibling options `linuxhw` and `modelines`.

Exposes EDID files from users-sourced database at https://github.com/linuxhw/EDID
Attribute names will be mapped to EDID filenames `<NAME>.bin`.
Attribute values are lists of `awk` regexp patterns that (together) must match
exactly one line in either of:
- [AnalogDisplay.md](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxhw/EDID/master/AnalogDisplay.md)
- [DigitalDisplay.md](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxhw/EDID/master/DigitalDisplay.md)
There is no universal way of locating your device config, but here are some practical tips:
1. locate your device:
- find your model number (second column)
- locate manufacturer (first column) and go through the list manually
2. narrow down results using other columns until there is only one left:
- `Name` column
- production date (`Made` column)
- resolution `Res`
- screen diagonal (`Inch` column)
- as a last resort use `ID` from the last column
