    Login Screen is forced to Retina

    I am running OCLP on my CMPRo 5,1, but this question is likely not directly related. I have a Dell U38DW18 wide-screen monitor attached. Booting Mojave in standard mode, I get the correct resolution set after logging in. Starting with DosDude-patched Catalina and OCLP loaded Monterey, Ventura...

    Display Recommendation for Video Pro?

    iMac with Secondary Display

    I have an iMac with an external 4K monitor I use for video/photo editing. My question is this: if I scale to gain more space, as available in the display settings in Mac OS, am I “wasting the 4K” point of my second monitor, or do I still benefit from increased pixel density/sharpness/clarity...
