Sonoma - smooth scaling resolutions for external displayss temporarily not available after wake or reconnect #2271

I'll add that I'm on an M1 MacBook Pro on Sonoma and the settings do not persist even when I close the lid or the computer goes to sleep and I wake it back up. Resolution scaling can be resolved for the external displays by unticking and ticking "Configuration override" in the Display portion of the BetterDisplay settings (which triggers applying the settings without computer reboot), but this is getting rather annoying. EDIT: Similarly, not only do the display settings get reverted, but the display arrangement--both of settings were maintained across reboots/sleep Ventura |

Same problem here. Even letting it go to sleep without closing the lid and then waking it up makes the settings disappear. In my case the most annoying setting to loose is the "smooth scaling one", since it reverts to a huge hi-dpi resolution. The only way to fix it is to uncheck, check it again and press apply every time the laptop wakes from sleep. |

Regarding smooth scaling, the reset workaround option seemed to work, but also deleting com.apple.windowserver.plist and com.apple.windowserver.displays.plist files in /Library/Preferences (I had none in ~/Library/Preferences) and rebooting seemed to solve it as well with the workaround turned off. (and actually only the com.apple.windowserver.displays.plist file got recreated, the com.apple.windowserver.plist one is nowhere to be found now) |

Hi,
I m on the latest macos Sonoma on mac mini m2 pro connected to sony A95L.
Betterdisplay 2.0.11.
Everytime i reboot the resolution is defaulting to 1080p. I made sure of config protection. but on reboot the resolution settings are reset.
EDID override is not taking effect on reboot.
I currently have apply resolution and load EDID on every reboot.
On ventura , resolution and EDID overrides were applied on every reboot.
Any resolution?
