Looks like proprietary rgb evil to me.  The manufacturers seem to work kinda hard to make sure their stuff doesn’t work with other manufacturers stuff.  (Even though there’s zero actual technical need for it)

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

 

Life is like a bowl of chocolates: there are all these little crinkly paper cups everywhere.

Nor do I.  I avoid modern rgb entirely precisely because of that garbage.  Someone will though.  Might have to be patient.
