After struggling to find the right solution for a couple weeks, I'm so glad I found this video. Cable solution worked for me since I have another docking station already, but thank you!
Glad to see you got there in the end. Long-time Mac users with 5K or 49 inch displays always have a USB-to-DP cable handy (sometimes that cable comes with the monitor) as the HDMI work-around for Minis and the Studio are a real pain otherwise. To be fair the info on the Apple website does flag up that the HDMI ports only support 4K… Long time Mac users with non-Apple peripherals also always keep a cheap corded mouse and keyboard somewhere in a cupboard so they can set up new Macs for non-Apple peripherals (you only need the corded stuff for set up once, then they’re back in the cupboard till next time you replace the Mac).
thank you so much for this video. I already have the caldigit you have (I think i bought in the past due to monitor issues with mac and a kvm switch some years ago) and i was able to set the resolution with a Philips 49" superwide curved display 499P9. Now hopefully I like the monitor after using it for a while. Wow it is huge!
Thank you so much for this video, you’ve helped out greatly! Also I love the fact that you have the same monitor as me. You also have shown me the light sort of speak. Lol I purchased a monitor lamp like the one you have and it has improved my workflow greatly. Thank you again for this video. I bought the cable it works great
Hey, i just bought m2 max studio and i'm wondering about what monitor should i get, do you have that 110 or 220 ppi issue? Is it scaling everything right with no processing power loss?
I've been considering twin LG 24" 4K Ultrafine monitors versus a single ultra-wide. Your vid gave me something else to be aware of, and potential solutions. Thanks.
I was using dual setup with 16 macbook pro and a dell 24” 4k, just recently switch to a single setup with lg 40 ultrawide. Despite that I do lose ppi on a larger screen, that feeling of immersiveness is incomparable, and I tend to just sit a bit back. So go get an ultrawide!
I solved the sharpening issue with a program called disablemonitor. With this program it is possible to modify the same resolution that you want to use for HiDPI. MacOS grained the grainy image by reducing the native resolution of the 29 LG ultrawide monitor. I use a USB4/Thunderbolt3 cable on my MacBook Pro m2, which transfers video and power from the LG 29 ultrawide monitor. With an HDMI cable I wouldn't have this problem, but I wouldn't have power on the same cable either.
Hi Sean, with the USB-C to Display port cable are you able to watch 4k video content either in TH-cam or Netflix? I am using my Mac Pro 2013 with a thunderbolt 2 to displace port with the Neo G9 and all 4K videos play at 1080 disregarding the fact that thunderbolt 2 can easily support 4k monitors. I think the compatibility with USB-C is what allows full resolution.
One way I found to help with the wake-up speed is to hook a keyboard to the in-display hub and hit a key or 2 on that keyboard instead of waiting for Mac to wake it up from the Bluetooth keyboard.
Love this video, but I have a question I’m planning to get a m2 mac mini with a g9 screen, I read that there is the same problem, so would the cable work as it worked on the mac studio or not?
Hello, I’m using macStudio Ultra wit Samsung super wide 49” screen. Now I ordered the cable you suggested, but in the meantime I connected hdmi (screen) to usbC (mac) and I cannot regulate the right brightness! Set to full brightness the images are too dark. Any idea how to connect (even in lower resolution) to be able to deal with brightness?
In addition to the special cable, did you have to go to a 32-core GPU on your Mac Studio? Or, will a 24-core unit work with your Samsung operating the screen @ 60 Hz refresh rate?
Hi Sean, I just obtained the same mac and monitor you were speaking of in your video. Also, the TS4. how do I connect the cables (which cables) to get a higher resolution and hopefully eliminate the delay with the TS 4?
Hey Sean! I also have the CRG9 and I’m about to get a M2 MacBook Pro 14” base model, i understand it also works with the usb c to DisplayPort but I just wanted to be 100% sure
Using the recommended cable with a samsung ultrawide i had screen flicker after the display would go to sleep. MacOS was trying to set the monitor back to "variable refresh rate" after it would wake up each time. Displaying freesync on the monitor itself resolves this issue and it keeps the 120hz native rate. Hope this helps someone.
HELP! I have a 2017 MacBook Air & CRG9 49" Monitor....3840x1080 resolution right now....screen works but keeps flashing up the setup guide saying the optimal resolution and my screen with periodically go black every few min then turn back on.... I currently and connected with HDMI to DP cable... What can I do to fix this issue of the setup guide popping up and my screen going black so often? Thanks for any help
Hi Sean. Thanks for the video. I was looking to purchase an ultrawide monitor to go with my mac studio. It looks like the Samsung CRG9 Ultrawide that you are using, does not come with a USB-C (Thunderbolt) input, which is why you are facing this issue. Most other ultrawide monitors come with a Type C input which should give the full resolution. I maybe getting an LG or Dell ultrawide.
Have you full screened an app into its own space yet? I want a wide monitor like this, but I need three individual spaces to display different apps in those spaces when I swipe left or right with my Magic Mouse. I currently have a Triple 1440p setup, each one is already a separated spaces for apps, but I am trying to consolidate since Apple computers (for decades now, and even with the Mac Studio) always forget which of my three monitors is which, so I am always rebuilding my workspaces everyday. I hope a single wide monitor can solve this, but they need to be able to be split up into individual spaces.
I'm using Mac mini with LG full HD moniter. I'm getting 1920*1080 resolution. But its not HIDPI. Is there any way to fix this and get 1920*1080 with HIDPI?
struggling with connecting two monitors to studio, the hdmi connector works fine on monitor 1, I have a usb c to HDMI adaptor for monitor 2, the thing wont even recognize the second monitor connected from the hub. Any solution is appreciated.
Hey Sean, I took delivery of the Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo this morning. Hooked it up to my my MacBook M1 Pro through my new CalDigit TS4. I have a problem. I can't get the screen to split so I can display two or three pages from my MacBook at the same time. Using Thunderbolt from MacBook to my CalD TS4, then display port to display port on the Neo. Please help Sean, am at a loss 🙏
Hi mate, thanks for the video, I have got the cable you recommended and it worked to get 5120 resolution, but the resolution is very pixelated any suggestions please. And what contrast, sharpness have you set thanks
hi need some help here, I'm gonna buy an ultrawide 34 inch 144hz monitor and macbook pro m1, i really am sceptical about the ports and compatibility of these two, can someone help, what cable to buy, what resolutions to expect
I just bought the M1 Mac mini base model (faster ssd than the M2). And I had the G9 since 2022. Can you tell me which cable is best for displayport to thunderbolt? I see you mentioned the maxanor - is this currently the best option?
Thanks for sharing. how do you like the 49"? to me, on paper the PPI is just too low about 110 if I understand correctly, versus the 200+ of a Macbook Pro...? I dont think I will be comfortable trying to read at that PPI
Yeah it’s mainly for gaming but works great for productivity. Doesn’t stand a chance when compared to MacBook Pro or Studio display in terms of picture quality and color accuracy.
Hi! Thanks for video! Please tell me, how much Ghz on your macbook with resolution 5120? Can it use 240 Ghz with Odissey G9? With Type-c or HDMI? Thanks!
Hi, I don't quite understand. The studio connects to the DP input of the monitor. What does the Macbook connect to via the dock? Another DP input? Does the monitor have a second DP input?
More modern Monitors should have USB-C or Thunderbolt connection instead of HDMI (which is the less flexible one). M2 does have HDMI 2.1 and can go to 8K but still USB-C or Displayport would be preferred. The LG 49WQ works out of the box with USB-C.
Thanks Sean, I'm using the same setup as you but for some reason every few days my monitor doesn't seem to recognize that it's connected to my MacBook Pro 14" M3 and I have to disconnect the MacBook and restart it to get it to work again. Any idea what could be the issue? Thanks
I'm having 3440 x 1440 resolution monitor which runs at 160hz when I use Mac Studio M1 Ultra can I use Bluerigger USB C to DP cable or the cable you suggested in the above video. Because Maxonar cable is ₹4,180 and Bluerigger cable is ₹2,020 in India.
I just got the Lg 49 inch monitor and have the display link docking station. I am using a HDMI to HDMI cable connected to the docking station. The best resolution I see is 2560x1440 at 50hz, and it's all stretched. Not sure how to fix it...:(
okeeeey, but how you connect PC?) I connect pc with displayport and only hdmi port i have on my oddesey g9, and i connect macbook pro with hdmi i have 5120x1440 with 60hz, i cannot has 120hz, with switchresx or somthing else, my hdmi cabel is 2.1 8k 30hz, 4k 120hz, but macos too slow for this... maybe...
We recently purchased a Mac Studio and a Dell UltraSharp 31.5 4k UHS LCD monitor. We have having issues with the cursor position not being accurately displayed on the screen. EX. You see the cursor over "file" but the computer reads it as over "edit".
I prefer to use 27 inch monitor but i am confused with resolution choices. (1080, 1440, 4k) Native 4K on 27 inch monitor will look so tiny and hard for my eyes to read. I basically need a 27inch monitor with crispy text and vibrant colour reproduction. What would be the best resolution that work best with MacOS for 27inch monitor? Please suggest
Great video Sean. Question did you also have same wake problem, or delay with your external monitor with your Macbook ? Mine is a 16" Macbook M1 Max and my monitor is a Dell 49" 4919dw. Resolution works 5140 x 1440, but sometimes the wake up from sleep mode does fail. Please let me know. I am using the original cable from Dell and this never happens with my 13 inches M1 2020 Laptop. Thanks
Hi thanks for making the video, I’m wondering what port on the tb dock did you use for the screen? Also what cable did you use and what port on the screen itself did you connect the cable to? I have an owc tb 3 dock, do you think it might work as well?
I got this screen with the Mac Studio. The color just is not great at all. Maybe I am not good with the settings but every way I change them the screen is just not like the 5k retina :/ I always have to export stuff to my phone to check the coloring before I deliver it.
I have a different LCD and a different problem It's a Philips 499p, with the same resolution and also mac studio m1 max. The problem is that sometimes I get full 5120x1440 and sometimes after waking it up I only get 3840x1080. I'm using pretty good usb-c usb-c cable (around $50) so I guess that shouldn't be a problem. It's getting pretty annoying because I have to unplug and plug the usb-c which doesn't even work all the time. Anyone has a solution pls?
Hi, thanks for your video,very helpful. I wonder whether you could answer this brief question. I have just bought a Mac Studio M2 Max 64gb. Would this screen also work with the new updated Studio with HDMI 2.1 etc? With thanks in advance.
So if I get a 49" monitor that supports USB C for display (such as the dell ultra sharp 49") would this work with a studio and get the full resolution? I am currently trying to sell my PC to get a Mac studio but a 49" monitor is something that I consider a must have for my productivity flow
do you face scaling issues with samsung monitor ? bcz macs run optimally at certain set of resolutions, that's why there monitor in 5k instead of 4k or 6k.
Hi Sean, I just purchased a new Mac studio, a Samsung Odyssey G9, and a Logitech Mx mouse and keyboard. After watching your video, I also got the Maxonar USB C to display port cable. After connecting the computer and monitor, I can’t get the set up screen to appear, so can’t set up and use the Mac, keyboard, mouse,etc. I used the monitor toggle button to make sure the correct port was chosen. I have also tried connecting via HDMI, but no luck. The monitor seems to recognize that something is plugged in to those ports, but the computer evidently doesn’t recognize the monitor. Sorry to bother you with this long note, but I have not found any help yet. Any clues? Thanks very much. Bob
This guy got it to work using the same cable. th-cam.com/video/_ZLycoxjlSo/w-d-xo.html Did you try different display port ? On your g9 settings can you go the lowest fps like 60fps and turn off hdr free sync. Then give it a try. Once it turns on then you can play with the settings. I think your g9 might be running at 240hz causing this issue. Let me know how it goes.
@@aslamsean Hi Sean, I realized (by watching another of your videos) that my issue was that my mouse & keyboard do not work out of the box, so I couldn’t get initial set-up accomplished. Argh …! I don’t have a wired keyboard, so I guess I may return my mouse and keyboard for the Apple version just to save the hassle. In any case, Thanks so much for your help - your work is invaluable.
After struggling to find the right solution for a couple weeks, I'm so glad I found this video. Cable solution worked for me since I have another docking station already, but thank you!

It has happened but only handful of times. Like few times this year. But not too often.
why couldn't you use a USB-C to a USB-C cable? Does the monitor not have a USB-C port?
Hi thanks for making the video, I’m wondering what port on the tb dock did you use for the screen?
Also what cable did you use and what port on the screen itself did you connect the cable to?
I have an owc tb 3 dock, do you think it might work as well?
Got the owc dock as well, did it work for you?
If so how?
Display Maestro is an amazing piece of software for giving you better resolution.
Thanks I’ll check it out
Are you able to achieve 240hz with that cable?
Hi Sean, what's the model of this monitor? Is this 240hz?
I got this screen with the Mac Studio. The color just is not great at all. Maybe I am not good with the settings but every way I change them the screen is just not like the 5k retina :/ I always have to export stuff to my phone to check the coloring before I deliver it.
How can you split the screen in 3 ?
Doesn’t work with my MacBook pro 13 2019, in my case resolution not display in settings
Yeah this may not work with older macs
Do you know if you would be able to run two ultra-wide monitors on a Mac studio with those same cables and get the better resolution on both
I tried searching forms. There is no one that has done it yet.
is there a problem with Mac Studio M2 and ultrawide Monitor as well?
essendo gia uscito dalla confezione del mio g5 il cavo display da 8k ho preso il cavetto piccolo adattatore della stessa marca è va benissimo
Hi, my display preferences look completely different and i am unable to achieve 5120 x 1440.

Any tips?
I have a different LCD and a different problem It's a Philips 499p, with the same resolution and also mac studio m1 max. The problem is that sometimes I get full 5120x1440 and sometimes after waking it up I only get 3840x1080. I'm using pretty good usb-c usb-c cable (around $50) so I guess that shouldn't be a problem. It's getting pretty annoying because I have to unplug and plug the usb-c which doesn't even work all the time. Anyone has a solution pls?
Does this also work on the Mac Studio M2 Ultra?
Hi, thanks for your video,very helpful. I wonder whether you could answer this brief question. I have just bought a Mac Studio M2 Max 64gb. Would this screen also work with the new updated Studio with HDMI 2.1 etc? With thanks in advance.
I just got the same computer and nearly the same monitor. Got the cable from the description and it worked right away. Like magic.
So if I get a 49" monitor that supports USB C for display (such as the dell ultra sharp 49") would this work with a studio and get the full resolution? I am currently trying to sell my PC to get a Mac studio but a 49" monitor is something that I consider a must have for my productivity flow
I dont think it would be a issue. USB-C is pretty powerfull, compare to the other options.
Thanks for the great video! What sort of cable did you use to connect your MacBook to the dock? Thanks! :)
The dock comes with that cable. It’s a thunderbolt cable but looks like usb c.
Great, thanks so much. And then the usb-c to display port cable from the monitor to the dock? Or did you use another cable for that?
do you face scaling issues with samsung monitor ? bcz macs run optimally at certain set of resolutions, that's why there monitor in 5k instead of 4k or 6k.
Hi Sean, I just purchased a new Mac studio, a Samsung Odyssey G9, and a Logitech Mx mouse and keyboard. After watching your video, I also got the Maxonar USB C to display port cable. After connecting the computer and monitor, I can’t get the set up screen to appear, so can’t set up and use the Mac, keyboard, mouse,etc. I used the monitor toggle button to make sure the correct port was chosen. I have also tried connecting via HDMI, but no luck. The monitor seems to recognize that something is plugged in to those ports, but the computer evidently doesn’t recognize the monitor. Sorry to bother you with this long note, but I have not found any help yet. Any clues? Thanks very much. Bob
This guy got it to work using the same cable. th-cam.com/video/_ZLycoxjlSo/w-d-xo.html
Did you try different display port ? On your g9 settings can you go the lowest fps like 60fps and turn off hdr free sync. Then give it a try. Once it turns on then you can play with the settings. I think your g9 might be running at 240hz causing this issue. Let me know how it goes.
@@aslamsean Hi Sean, I realized (by watching another of your videos) that my issue was that my mouse & keyboard do not work out of the box, so I couldn’t get initial set-up accomplished. Argh …! I don’t have a wired keyboard, so I guess I may return my mouse and keyboard for the Apple version just to save the hassle. In any case, Thanks so much for your help - your work is invaluable.
@@robertcsmith7773 oh ok. Nice I am glad that video was useful. Hopefully Apple peripherals help solve your issue.
Do you have Big Sur or Monterrey?
I got it! But once I close my MacBook it resets the settings?
