Hi, Thank you for the application it's super useful.

Monitorian doesn't seem to detect my monitor for some reason.

here is the probe.log

On linux IIRC I can control it with ddcutil.

When probing It does seems to change the monitor's brightness for a second but even with rescan it doesn't show up in the menu.

The monitor also has a usb interface for Gigabyte's software which also has a python script to control it here. https://gist.github.com/wadimw/4ac972d07ed1f3b6f22a101375ecac41

Your Gigabyte monitor did not respond to the query for capabilities. In such case, use preclear option https://github.com/emoacht/Monitorian/issues/270#issuecomment-998347584
