Unable to detect any Apple Display

Issue #57 new
Andrzej Pajączkowski created an issue

Hello,

I have problems with both my 20" Cinema Displays (A1081). One is from 2005, one from 2007. Older one has its original AC converter (as far as I know) other one has original Apple converter but from older model (I had to cover its middle pins on DC plug to get it working).

Detailed info on monitors: 2005 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1BJai_zDYUc5QW_lAjgYGiV8QVEc8SfON

2007 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1cl5DQPt0FuP2G4Ye8s88Q65MZVFEeqEl

Both monitors are working, but Brightness Controller reports that it is unable to detect any Apple Display. USB cable is of course connected (I tried various accessible ports) and USB Hubs on the back of monitors are working. I tried them one at a time on Windows 7 (tower with DVI-D port) and 10 (laptop with HDMI>DVI-D converter), both 64-bit.

HID info seems unusually short.

I tried latest beta (1.5.7) as well as first Brightness Controller with 20" support (1.3.1). Issue is present in both. I ran both versions as Administrator.

Can you please help me figure out/fix this problem?

Thanks in advance, Andrew

UPDATE:

Now (I've installed Apple Display Driver from Bootcamp 5) I have longer HID info, but no brightness control still (Unable to detect Apple Display...)

    @AndrzejPajączkowski Make sure you have the USB from Cinema Display plugged in as well as the other cable to get this application to work. I had a similar problem and this solved it.
