Hello, I bought an external 4K IPS LCD display for my Windows PC. When I played the following video along side with a M1 MacBook Pro 16", I noticed that during 1:18-1:19, when the background was dark, black blocks showed up on the new display and the image quality looked very bad. To test if it is Windows or the display's problem, I connected the new display to the MacBook Pro and replayed the same video under mirror mode. such ugly poor image quality disappeared.

What is the reason for the poor image quality when playing the same movie on a Windows PC? Can it be fixed?
Also, when playing the same video when connected to the Mac in mirror mode, the M1 MacBook Pro showed completely black background while the new LCD showed background that just looked dimmed (kind of like a semi-transparent dark cloth with light shining from behind). Is this normal? Is it caused by shortcoming of IPS panel vs. mini LED technology?
