how to change resolution and aspect ratio mac mini m1

Unable to Change resolution and aspect ratio on Mac mini M1 when connecting External Displays LG 4K 43UN700

I'm stuck with a stretched image and only get 30Hz when I should be able to select 60Hz which works fine on a MacBook Pro 16'' 2019.

Any ideas??

Thanks

Resolutions instead of scaling options in Displays settings I have a 4k display attached to my 13 inch, M1, 2020 MacBook Pro running macOS Ventura 13.1. The display is connected via HDMI to a USB-C hub. Until recently (not sure if related to the OS upgrade to Ventura), the MacBook would automatically select the 4k resolution of the display and offer me the usual scaling options with thumbnails displaying how large text and buttons would appear on the screen. I could change the scaling, but the resolution would always be 4k and the image was sharp. This somehow changed. Now I get offered several resolutions, but no scaling options. When I select the 4k resolution (3840x2160), the image is sharp, but text is way too small to read. I can select the full HD resolution (1920x1080), but then the image is blurry. When I then right-click on the full HD resolution, I can select "Use default mode" from a drop-down menu. Then the scaling/text size stays the same as for full HD but the resolution is 4k again, with a sharp image. I really do not understand what is going on. My MacBook is clearly capable of using the 4k resolution of my screen but I somehow do not get the options to change the scaling of that resolution. As a side note, "show all resolutions" just gives me more (bad) resolution options, all of which are blurry.

Macbook Air M3 External Monitor Wide Resolution Hi everyone, I can't get my Macbook Air M3 to extend its display to my external monitor's native resolution at 2560x1080 and only exports at 1920x1080. I am aware there is this thread: MacBook Air M3 external display resolutio… - Apple Community but I can't edit my system information. Are there any other workarounds?

Display scaling dissapeared on external screen in Ventura :-( I had no issues in my 4K external screen through USB-C on my MacBook Air M1. I was using scaled display. Now I upgraded to Ventura and I have a sharp image at the native display resolution, but the scaling option disappeared... How can I get it back?

According to User Manual if using HDMI you can only get 60 Hz on HDMI 3 & 4 or switch to Display Port.
