Catalina & UHD/4K Monitor/TV
I upgraded my Mac mini 2018 from Mojave to Catalina, with it I use a Toshiba 43LF621U19 Monitor (a 43" UHD TV). The combo has worked well since I purchased them both last spring.
At first I thought the upgrade had failed, but suspected video problems, I swapped a Vizio HDTV into the HDMI port and the upgrade was waiting at the login prompt (in front of Catalina island). I then tried swapping the Toshiba back in and it worked. Everything else seemed fine, I was able to restart and the UHD monitor continued to work. However, if I shut the mini down and then power it back on, I get no video; I have to hard power it off, swap the Vizio back in, power it up and swap again at the login screen.
I've upgraded the Firmware on the Toshiba and played with Default and Scaled resolution, but no change. Does anyone have any suggestions for troubleshooting and getting this to work? Is there a terminal command I can use to see what display the Mac is 'seeing' and what resolution it's sending?
Thanks for any help.
Edit: I have also tried re-installing Catalina, while it seemed to go through some additional steps (typical first time stuff), in the end the problem persists.
