Hi, what about controlling the voltages for contrast and brightness by e.g. an 8ch I2C/SPI DAC?
Would have several advantages in my opinion:

less effort for populating the PCB
less footprint, smaller PCB
could lead to better profiles for known CRTs
all SW controllable (without disassembling the Monitor/TV for adjusting)
cheaper (e.g. an DAC088S085 is around 2...4 USD) ?

The other resistors for voltage control could be handled this way too, or by a digital poti ?
