DaVinci Mini Panel - Screen Dimming Issue

PostTue May 15, 2018 10:09 am

I just received my brand new Mini Panel and wow, it is fantastic!

The only major thing that bothers me is the bright screens, I did manage to dim it inside Resolve, which is perfect.

But is there a way of keeping that setting outside of Resolve? Is there perhaps some sort of control software similar to BM Desktop Video?

Really don't like the idea of having to yank out the power cord every time.

Thanks!

We dont currently have a screen saver or power sleep mode but are looking into it.

On the occasions I have to use a Mini Panel, I put it on an X10 remote control so I can kill the power when it's not in use. I agree that it would be nice if the LCD screens had a screen saver mode.

Something akin to the Windows 95 screensaver would be fun.

Thanks Peter and Marc for the replies/suggestions.
