I just installed ddcutil for the first time on my brand new Raspberry Pi 5 (running Rpi OS Bookworm), in order to control the brightness on attached 7'' screen. I have previously used ddccontrol on Rpi3 and Rpi4 (running Rpi OS Bullseye) for the same purpose, but it does not work on Rpi5 and Bookworm.
What have I tried
I tried setting the screen brightness to 50% with following command:
$ ddcutil setvcp --display 1 --verbose 10 50
Feature definition file not found: DVL-TLD1280-61463.mccs
Verifying that value of feature 0x10 successfully set...
Current value does not match value set.
Verification failed for feature 10
Expected result
That screen brightness was set to 50%
Actual result
The screen brightness was set to 0%. This is verified visually, by using the monitor menu and with getvcp command:
$ ddcutil getvcp --display 1 --verbose 10
Feature definition file not found: DVL-TLD1280-61463.mccs
Getting data for non-table VCP code 0x10 - Brightness:
Raw value: opcode=0x10, mh=0x00, ml=0x64, sh=0x00, sl=0x00, max_val=100 (0x0064), cur_val=0 (0x0000)
VCP code 0x10 (Brightness ): current value = 0, max value = 100
Other related information
When I increase or decrease the screen brightness with use of on screen buttons, the getvcp command does report correct brightness value, so the issue is most probably with changing the brightness.

I suspect that it is an issue with this particular monitor. I did not manage to control the brightness with use of ddccontrol with Rpi3 Bullseye for this monitor, but for another PC monitor. Sorry for wrong information. But I'm still interested if you have any input om what could be the issue.
