I've a whole host of issues and let's see if some can be figured out:
Firstly, does this monitor support MST through displayport?
Secondly, this monitor has terrible input detection. When I turn my computer on I always have to manually turn the monitor on as well.
The monitor has a countdown timer when no input is detected and will enter standby after 60 seconds. The timer never moves and the monitor will remain on indefinitely unless manually turned off.
You can't change inputs unless the monitor detects a device is connected. Otherwise, that input is hidden. Even if the input works just fine, the monitor has no option to allow you to change inputs if *it* thinks there's nothing connected. There should, at minimum, be a way to pin the inputs to a quick access menu. I've succeeded for the HDMI input, but not displayport as the monitor doesn't believe anything is connected.
Why does the remote not have an input button? Literally the main reason for a remote, power and input. I assume this is to force you into the terribly laggy smart menus. Thanks marketing.
When using the voice function of the remote, the monitor OS will freeze for 45-60 seconds before rapidly catching up to any remote inputs you may have put it. I only used this to try and change the input, but sadly that doesn't work either.
Finally, why does a monitor released in 2024 only have 1 HDMI and 1 displayport connection? Most feature 3-4 inputs and some even have outputs now.
Thanks for taking the time to read. I've done a lot of googling and looking around the web as well as trying a host of different quality and length cables just to get this thing to stop black screening. I'm not sure if the problem was the cables or the auto-detection for game mode, but I'm now at least able to use it for my gaming PC relatively reliably. I currently can't get it to work with my work PC as it has decided that there's nothing connected via displayport. I may have to utilize a displayport cable to my PC just to pin the "app" for the displayport input so that I can switch inputs... Which should be a single button press like every other monitor and TV produced.
