    I've noticed that in dark scenes, certain areas appear much darker than others, like shadows within the dark scenes, and it looks unnatural.

    Does anyone know how to control sound level on an external LG monitor without using the hardware buttons on the panel? Apple system settings (Sound) and the downloadable LG monitor software for Mac do not allow you to control the sound level or mute the speakers.
