The HID spec defines the following Usage IDs (p. 345 ff):
- Monitor Page (0x80) -> Monitor Control (0x01)
- VESA Virtual Controls Page (0x82) -> Brightness (0x10)
Apple made use of them in their Apple Studio Display and most likely on
other external displays (LG UltraFine 5k, Pro Display XDR).
The driver will work for any HID device with a report, where the
application matches the Monitor Control Usage ID and:
1. An Input field in this report with the Brightness Usage ID (to get
the current brightness)
2. A Feature field in this report with the Brightness Usage ID (to
set the current brightness)
This driver has been developed and tested with the Apple Studio Display.
Here is a small excerpt from the decoded HID descriptor showing the
feature field for setting the brightness:
Usage Page (Monitor VESA VCP), ; Monitor VESA VPC (82h, monitor page)
Usage (10h, Brightness),
Logical Minimum (400),
Logical Maximum (60000),
Unit (Centimeter^-2 * Candela),
Unit Exponent (14),
Report Size (32),
Report Count (1),
Feature (Variable, Null State),
The full HID descriptor dump is available as a comment in the source
code.
