How to resolve flickering and unusable external monitors with the new MacBook Pro 16"? Displays have worked with previous MacBook Pros.

system Preferences > displays ...

... hold the Option key and that button appears in the lower right.

I have the same issue with my Macbook Pro 16'. I've never experienced the external flickering issue with other Macbooks (Air, pro 13' and Macbook 11')

So what's the take away here? In your opinion, is this something that can fixed via a software or firmware update or is this hardware that needs to be replaced?

Flickering only on external.

Well that’s a thought however, I’ve been using the same setup with another Mac for 4 years with no issue. Tried my new Pro 16 and suddenly there are issues.

I’ve had this issue as well with my new 16 inch. Also, it stopped charging as well after going to sleep. Something is awry.....

Sounds good, but for me the issue is so intermittent it would be a real hassle to drag the gear in and show them nothing.

Thanks Grant I've tried this but still an issue.

The maker suggests connecting the power adapter when using that Letscom USBC002 hub. ¿Are you?

I receive the flickering issue with both USB-C hubs and when plugging my monitor in directly via USB-C to displayport cable, always with the power adapter plugged in

Yes. The power is plugged into the hub. The same way it was with my 15” which had no issue.

do you have the latest DisplayLink driver for your Dock, if it uses a Driver?

Hey, I have this issue all the time with macbooks. Have you tried going into Energy Saver in preferences and disable the automatic graphics switching?
