3 years ago Oh, this is indeed sad! This looks like a very nice monitor. The only things I can suggest are this:
But, my (brief) Google search did turn up similar complaints, so you might be out of luck here :-(

3 years ago Wow...that works!
You're a miracle worker.
Firstly I had to update my fork to reflect all the recent changes in your fork (https://ardalis.com/syncing-a-fork-of-a-github-repository-with-upstream/).
Then a quick recompile.
I updated my .ini file to reflect the new syntax.
usb_device = "0bda:0411"
on_usb_connect = "Hdmi1"
on_usb_disconnect = "DisplayPort1"I connected my Mac to the G9 with this cable: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07WXGKKBW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (This is only capable of 3840x1080 @60Hz, but I'll take it!)
I connect my work Mac to the G9 with a DisplayPort cable, and no software on it.
Viola! Switching goodness.
You rock!
Oh, I am sad.
It's unfair reporting this as an 'issue' with display-switch...
I got an early Christmas present: a LC29G95TSSUXEN monitor. It's great...with one exception: it doesn't seem to support DDC/CI.
From my MacBook, using ddcctl, I get this sort of thing: $ ./ddcctl -d 1 -i 18 D: NSScreen #190590103 (5120x1440 0°) 109.00 DPI I: found 1 external display I: polling display 1's EDID I: got edid.name: LC49G95T I: got edid.serial: H4ZN901744 D: action: i: 18 D: setting VCP control #96 => 18
And then nothing happens (This happens with the display number (the -ii parm) from 1..18.)
In display_switch, I get: 15:30:53 [ERROR] Failed to get current input for display '0' 15:31:03 [DEBUG] (1) display_switch::app: Detected device change. Removed device: "0bda:5411" 15:31:03 [DEBUG] (1) display_switch::app: Detected device change. Removed device: "05ac:1006" 15:31:03 [DEBUG] (1) display_switch::app: Detected device change.

So you can see me switching 4 times here.
That's me fairly well out of the switching game, I'm afraid, unless someone can come up with a way to shake this monitor into submission, or have an alternative control scheme.
So sad.
