About

sideband reads and writes monitor settings over DDC/CI, the control channel compliant

displays have carried since 1998. Brightness, contrast, volume, input source and colour

presets are set from the command line or from the notification area. There is no support

list, so any brand answers or reports why it cannot. A laptop's built-in panel has no

DDC/CI channel and is driven through the display driver instead.

It also arranges open windows into zone layouts, with an undo that puts every window back

where it was.

One executable of about 347 KB. No installer, no service, no driver, no elevation, no

network access and no telemetry.

Security

No known CVEs for sideband.

Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
