Detection and blocking of M1 Mac Mini (Macmini9,1) HDMI port to prevent issues.Display naming changes (now consistent with System Preferences).Better handling of virtual screens (AirPlay, Sidecar).MonitorControl now disengages from media keys when there is no external display connected.Better handling of mirrors (displays that are mirror targets are now detected by the app).

Monitorcontrol m1 mac update#

Lazy display update (upon configuration changes the OS sent 4-8 notifications to the app which made updating the display configuration costly - the app now waits 2 seconds until things settle).

Major refactoring, moved most arm64 related stuff to a single self-contained utility class.

DisplayServices framework bridging instead of existing Swift workaround.

Better handling of runtime changes in display configuration.

Proper support for (future) Apple Silicon Macs with multiple external display support.

Submenu mode looks better now and is activated only with 3 or more displays.

Better handling of rapid configuration changes (when user closes/opens lid or plugs in and out displays rapidly).

Display naming reflects mirroring better.

OSD is shown on the mirror master screen when a controllable display is shadowed by an uncontrollable display.

Displays that has mirrored screens are controlled along with mirror master.

Added software brightness control as a fallback if DDC is not available.

Added software darkening option in place of ‘lower contrast after brightness’.

Moved 'Change Brightness/Volume for all screens' under Keyboard in Settings.

Upon configuration change, restoring software dimming is smoothed out to be less disruptive.

Upon configuration change, when previously saved software dimming values are restored, a subtle OSD effect will give a hint to the user that MonitorControl is doing this.

Subtle OSD effect when using 'Further lower brightness via software shading'.

Full compatibility with custom expert ColorSync Display Calibration Profiles.This might also be a better alternative for OLED or microLED displays. Added 'Enable Mute DDC command' to handle displays that do or do not support this command (Thanks to In Settings/Display the 'DDC' checkbox can now be unchecked - this combined with 'Enable software control.' will let misbehaving displays be controlled via software dimming.

This also solves the issue regarding full screen apps which in the past resulted in the wrong screen being detected as active. Active screen is now determined solely by the location of the mouse cursor (no need to click or anything).Keyboard controls now works when menu is open.Show an OSD lock symbol when keyboard change is not allowed for a few seconds after sleep or display reconfiguration.Hide OSD function hides the mac volume OSD instead of trying to suppress LG display overlay.Enable software dimming if required, this is enabled by default.New 'Displays' tab in preferences (this combines the functions of the old 'Display' and 'Advanced' tab).New Big Sur style menu on Big Sur and above.Replaced menu bar slider titles with icons (only on macOS Big Sur and above).Full release notes for 3.0.0 Enhancements
