External Monitor Brightness Issue #50

Open franzalex opened 2 years ago

franzalex commented 2 years ago

I use a portable monitor just like this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08K2Q1J7N. I observed that this kind of monitor interprets the brightness settings differently from the slider value.

My investigation revealed that the maximum brightness value on the monitor is reached when the slider is set to 39%. Any value above that produces erratic and non-sequential brightness values on the monitor.
Upon doing some calculations, I found that the monitor interprets the value of the brightness slider using the formula:

Formula: brightness = (slider * 255)/100

Is it possible that the application can be updated such that on monitors that interpret the slider values differently (like this one), there is a way to change the maximum value of the slider to something other than 100?

Thanks.
