Hey everyone,
I have a 2016 MBP 15" running 10.14.4 and a new Samsung 28" UR55 monitor. My current setup is my monitor connected via HDMI through my Satechi hub on the left of my Mac.
I understand that my specific Mac doesn't support 4k 60hz out of the box and I'm ok with that atm since I don't need 4k 60hz for work. But my problem is that I'm trying to scale it down to 1080p 60hz but the option to change the refresh rate is greyed out at 30hz?
- It's not the cable because I used the same HDMI cable on my Xbox One X and the monitor registers 4k at 60hz
- My Satechi hub supports up to 4k 30hz (will be switching to Anker's USB-C to HDMI adapter to try 4k at 60hz later)
- I also have the Digital AV hub from Apple that supports 1080p at 60hz or UHD at 30 hz (I plugged in my gf's 2017 Macbook and it put out 1080p at 60hz)
With two different adapters that can for sure support 1080p at 60z and a cable that for sure supports 4k at 60hz. I'm confused why scaling the display stays greyed out at 30hz? Any ideas?
