Add trace with Acer AL711 TFT behind DP-to-HDMI and HDMI-to-VGA adapters
The HDMI-to-VGA adapter provides audio via a 3.5mm socket. This feature is announced using a CEA extension block. The DP-to-HDMI adapter (Type 1) shows up at i2c address 0x40. It just provides an identification register/eeprom, reading 'DP-HDMI ADAPTOR\x04'.

+For the two Samsung displays below, the logic analyzer was attached to a
+VGA cable, which connects the computer and the display while the EDID data
+was sent across the I2C bus.
To decode these, set up a protocol decoder stack like this:
- i2c -> i2cfilter -> edid
+ i2c -> edid

+-------------------------------
+
+This setup is somewhat more evolved, as it used a computer with a
+dual-mode displayport (DP++), a DP-HDMI (Type 1) adapter, a HDMI DDC
+breakout cable, a HDMI-VGA adapter, and a CRT screen with VGA input.
+
+The logic analyzer was connected to the DDC bus between the two adapters
+above, i.e. on the HDMI connection. As the DP-HDMI adapter uses a level
+shifter between DP and HDMI DDC busses, also the communication between
+computer and the DP adapter is visible (the DDC busses on both side are
+physically connected). The DP-HDMI adapter is visible at I2C address
+0x40 and responds with the readonly identifier 'DP-HDMI Adaptor<EOT>'.
+
+The HDMI-VGA adapter modifies the EDID contents from the VGA moniter,
+it adds an CEA extension block at offset 0x80 and notifies the existence
+of the extension block in the first block.
