2023 16" Ventura Mac Book Pro: Issues with STAGE MANAGER when APPLE TV is playing and minimized

Late Update: I went back to the Apple Store and tested the other Mac Book Pros on their floor. I tested two of them with the same result as described initially. The Genius that helped me explained that it was most likely a software issue and that they would scale it up to engineering. Additionally, I tested their non-mac book pro models ( air models ) and I was not able to replicate the issue - so this is isolated only to the Mac book pros.

So, as for me, I can live without Stage Manager personally (though I am glad there is seemingly an eventual fix for this). I am more bothered by the fact that the black tones are way too dark ( as I mentioned initially ) when watching movies/videos Apple TV , YouTube (movie trailers), Amazon Prime movies. I do hope that apple will listen and take a closer look at the black levels on the Mac book pro - and adjust (this is particularly true when watching dim lit scenes). I have a more enjoyable experience watching movies from my old 2014 Mac book pro. I feel a degree of frustration that I spent nearly $3,000 whenever I watch a movie on this Mac - particularly since it is seemingly a simple fix via an update. Thought: Why not implement a control for the user to be able to adjust the black/white tones when watching movies?

Anyhow, I decided to keep the new Mac because I need it for my graphic work ( my 2014 is aged and I don't want to upgrade to newer OS due to compatibility issues with some of my programs ).

I've been a long time Mac user (since the first iPod and first iPhones ).... I recall going through an issue with my 2005 (or 2004) Mac book pro: the battery would swell-up and I would have to take the battery in for a replacement every 6 months or so ( back then the battery was on the underside with a release button ). This was eventually addressed with the newer models and the swelled-up batteries became a thing of the past. Compared to a swelled battery issue from way back then, I assume this is a relatively easy fix.

I have faith that apple will fix this issue with Stage Manager and with the black tones and that my feed back is taken seriously. In total, I took 3 trips to the Apple Store (including the initial day of purchase), spent an hour with a tech over the phone, and spent time in the community boards trying to figure this out. Ultimately, I pointed the issue-out in the store to the employees who were seemingly unaware of this issue. Let's get things fixed Apple!

Update: I just upgraded to Sonoma 14.1 and was hoping this issue would have been resolved in the newest OS version. I am disappointed that this has not as of yet been addressed.

I don't care for stage manager. But please fix the overly DARK TONES when watching any of the Apple TV shows via the 16' Mac book pro.

I do not have this issue when watching the shows on my television or iPhone 15. I find it incredibly irritating that my $3,000 computer is not able to display the tones correctly.

Again, when I last did a store visit: I was able to test the floor model and ALL of the 16" Mac Pro's have this issue. The more affordable Mac Airs do not have this issue. Can someone pleas acknowledge this issue in here?

I was told by the employees who witnessed this issue personally, that they would address it to the techs. but so far it is still a problem.
