    Perhaps the Python version is to new.  Use a flat pack version of display cal.  I do not know what that mean though.  It does have all the requirements built for displaycal.    I am Windows and just need a simple profile for streaming and gameing.   HCFR does better for my case with 20 point controls.   Learning how to calibrate is a art.  Lots of choices when doing it with hardware.   I finally learned RGB gray balance (>= 1% luminance) combined Δa*00 and Δb*00 range  is staying on the curve of locus  whites .    Sorry for the language.   I tend to not be simple.

    You won’t get support for specific issues in 3.9.17, ypu need to put them there:

    https://github.com/eoyilmaz/displaycal-py3/issues

    Also 3.8.9.3 won’t work on macOS past Ventura maybe? so newer macOS need to use the above.

    Also test basic argyllCMS functions to discard any issue not related to displayCAL, like runing “dispcal -R” or some “spotread” with your device.

    DisplayCAL-py3 is in active development with nightly builds, last commit from March, ahead of 3.9.17

    Hey, @Vincent

    Really good to know DisplayCal keeps in development.

    Is that last version you kindly mention, 3.9.17, been tested in latest Mac OS versions?

    Are we free of that black screen problem mentioned in first post?

    Regards…

    Me pasó lo mismo, es decir la pantalla estaba encendida pero se veia todo negro, al principio reinicié, lo volví a hacer y pasó lo mismo, entonces simplemente pulse el botón de apagar la pantalla y volverla a encender y ya está ya se vio el programa DisplayCAL que había terminado la configuración.

    @francovisual,

    I don`t think this would be possible to do in a Macbook, right?
