EDID stands for Extended Display Identification Data. It is a data structure indicating the capabilities of a display that is communicated to computer graphics source. EDID learner will detect all the connected HDMI equipped monitors and analyse the content of EDID. The EDID with minimal resolution support will be the reference EDID for incoming HDMI sources. So if one of the monitors is 720p and rest are 1080p, resolution will be lowered to 720p for all the sources.
