BenQ monitor automatically changes brightness based on background colour

[BrendanB]

Whenever I am doing something that has a dark background, my main monitor automatically dims itself. At first I thought it was dynamic contrast, but it's not turned on. I also tried disabling sensor monitoring service, but to no avail. The problem seems to only happen to whatever monitor I set as my main. So if I set my second monitor as the main one and open up a video with a dark background, only that monitor dims. I've been trying to figure out what's wrong for a few days now, but nothing seems to work. I sent BenQ an email regarding this problem, but all they responded with was an RMA request. If possible, please help.

Specs:

• 
  Windows 10 64-bit
  
  i5 4690k
  
  8 GB RAM
  
  Asus Z97-A
  
  Two BenQ GL2460 monitors
  
  AMD r9 290x
  
  1 TB WD HDD
  
  120 GB Crucial SSD
  

How can I get my monitor brightness to remain constant?

Hello,

First off did you try to reset your monitor settings to its default?
Otherwise take a look at this:

Hi Dion,

Yeah, I tried resetting the monitor settings to default but nothing changed unfortunately. I also took a look at the link you gave me and none of the solutions there worked.

Thanks
