M1 MacBook Pro - external monitor issue

When connecting an LG 4k display to the MBP, scaling is not available and the only resolution that is not blurry is 4K which is so tiny it is unusable for any application that is text based. With various hubs, it will work sporadically. This was not an issue on the same machine with previous MacOS using same monitor and HDMI cable. This issue only surfaced with Ventura macOS 13.

Problems with external monitor after upgrading to Ventura. After updating my 2020 macbook air M1 with Ventura I can no longer use my 4k LG 27UL500-W monitor, it gives me 1080p as the default resolution and when I rescale it to 4k from the settings, it also scales all windows, folders and docs making it impossible to use (all too small to be remotely usable). The set up is exactly the same as before the update, so it's definitely not a problem of how the monitor is connected with the pc (HDMI with an original apple adapter). I hope something can be done about it. Thank you very much.

M1 Macbook Air Won't Recognize Native Resolution of External Monitor I have an external monitor (21:9 aspect ratio, 2560x1080 resolution). It worked fine with my M1 Macbook Air until I upgraded to Ventura. Now, my computer will only allow me to have the monitor at a max resolution of 1920x1080. Even if I show all resolutions, 1920x1080 is still the max listed. I've seen a lot of other people with this problem, but not solution that has worked for me. Does anyone have a solution?

Connecting two monitors to my 2022 macbook pro m1 pro chip, but one monitor's resolution is limited to 1024x768 Hi all, I am connecting two monitors to my macbook pro m1 pro chip, the first one works well, but the second one is detected as non pnp monitor and the resolution is only limited to 1024x768. I connected the first monitor with a HDMI to thunderbolt cable, and the second one with displayport cable. I have attached a hub to my mac which can connect with displayport cables. Does anyone know why the second monitor is doing that?
