Hello, I just bought sold my newish Studio Display and saved 850$ by buying the M8 and love it so far - the price is a now-brainer. However, I have a few set up questions and wondered if anyone with experience could answer? I am using a UCB-C cable to connect the two and it works fine....

- When I turn the screen off on the MacBook it goes into a jazzy Samsung screen after a few minutes that tells me to connect something via USB - would love this to just go black too when the MacBook does and stay black?
- Any way to control volume and brightness using the MacBook keyboard or do I have to use the Samsung remote each time?
- Tips on best resolution to get max sharpness but not have it be too small to read text?
- Webcam - is it possible to have centre stage etc. with it? I saw it as a feature of the camera that it does tracking but can't figure out how to do it?

Many thanks in advance!
