My Monitor is showing darkness too dark!

I found this: https://www.reddit.com/r/Monitors/comments/dyeliz/lg_27gl850_way_too_dark/ but your screenshot looks too dark for us too.

I tried to Change the “Black Stabilizer” from 50 to 100. It makes some difference, although I cannot disable it. I tested the link and it shows differences, but the image look the same because the “printscreen” doesn’t show what the monitor shows…. funny.
Black Stabilizer 0% (Here both pictures look the same, but when viewing in the monitor the first row is almost invisible)
Black Stabilizer 100% (Here it is exactly what shows in the monitor)
So, my conclusion is that the problem is this Black Stabilizer feature… Leave with that I guess…
Now, at least, It is possible to see some shades in the cockpit:

That´s the problem hahaha. You can try setting up the brightnes in the configuration. Show me a screenshot of your nvidia configurator

New monitor … does it support HDR? Any HDR settings on the monitor on/off?
I think HDR is part of the monitor and graphics card “handshake” … just like native resolution and refresh-rates, etc.
I am no expert debugging this kind of thing but it looks like monitor might be expecting HDR signal but only getting SDR.
(Not sure that would show up in a software screenshot … but maybe, if the mon and gpu were confusing one another somehow.)

There in no option labeled HDR or SDR in the monitor settings…. I am not expert so I really don’t know… but thanks anyway

Darn. By any chance, was your old monitor a TV?
Many TVs usually expect a reduced dynamic-range signal … so instead of full 8-bit [0-255] RGB it’s something like [16-235] range. (And transmitted as luminance/chroma signals not digital RGB, for further signal compression.)
The result is dark-grey and black tones get crushed down, like that… but it’s usually the opposite case (moving your PC from a monitor to a TV).
And again, not sure this would affect a screenshot that you would send to us… I’m just shooting in the dark here. uh, no pun intended.
Here are the relevant spots on the NVidia control panel to look for these settings…

No. Another LG monitor. I checked the video and it is already set as FULL.
**EDIT: Ok, FIXED. My monitor has this performance setting, like TV’s (Cinema, Game, Photo, etc…). I switched from GAME to CINEMA and Voilà…
So… that Black Stabilizer is the one to blame. In CINEMA mode the Black Stabilizer is deactivated. So… the funniest is that I cannot use the GAME setup to fly a “game” (sorry). Maybe this is one of that monitors to use with Playstation or Xbox… :p**
Thanks guys for the support

Ugh, yeah sounds like by “game” they mean “game console” which often emit the compressed-range signal for TVs. (Although some like Xbox One can emit full-range RGB…)
Be sure to check if there are any separate settings to lower latency… sometimes “cinema” modes imply things like motion-blur-reduction which can add a frame or two of processing time.

Good point…The other options are photo custom… let’s see

Mi old monitor Samsung, has some similar configurations too. I was just going to ask you if the monitor had any such presets. Well bro, good that you have been able to solve it. Greetings, see you at the Copa America. hahaha
