External monitor pixelated after Ventura 13.2 update Hi all, After completing Ventura 13.2 update on my Macbook Pro (2,8 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7) my external monitor became pixelated and unreadable when connected to my Macbook. Picture attached. Tried with different cables (HDMI, USB-C) and restarted the macbook and the monitor, cleared NVRAM and changed the color profile to Color LCD.. did not help. The macbook display itself is working fine it just gets pixelated when connected to a monitor. The monitor is fine too, works when connected with other laptops. I'd appreciate you help, thank you..

2019 MBP and Samsung crg9 49" monitor getting only 1920 x 1080 resolution I have a 2019 16" Macbook Pro. I got a USB-C to HDMI cable and connected the laptop to the monitor, yesterday when i plugged it in (for the first time), my laptop screen got squished horizontally and display looked good on the Samsung 49" monitor. Today however, it shows only 1920 x 1080 option as max. Yesterday when I went to the display - color option, i saw crg9 profile show up. Now, i just see a generic Display profile. How to fix this. This laptop has two graphics card, I have turned off "Automatic Graphic Switching" so it picks the AMD graphics card all way and can confirm that when I go to Display settings

Washed out colors when plugging an M1 MacBook Air to a 1080p MSI external display. Hi everyone, As stated in the title, when connecting my MacBook Air M1 with an MSI G241 1080p high refresh rate display through an HDMI UGREEN Hub, the colors are really washed out and the black levels are raised (so blacks look grey and all the colors look washed out and pale). This is really disappointing since other windows laptops have no issue outputting the correct colors when connected to the same monitor, so I know this is an issue with macOS or the MacBook. I have tried changing the color profile and refresh rate( which by the way displays correctly at 144Hz) I also tried a tutorial to force RGB output instead of YCbCr, and It didn't solve anything. The tutorial: https://gist.github.com/GetVladimir/c89a26df1806001543bef4c8d90cc2f8 I would like to know if any of you had this issue and if or how it was resolved? I am currently on macOs Monterey 12.4 Thanks in advance.
