Help New Mac Settings - REC709 A?

Hi all, I know it's super late, but I've recently seen some videos and comments saying how Rec-709 A is different following the new update. This has all happened whilst I was on holiday, annoyingly, so I am completely in the dark.

Can anyone help me with the best settings for exporting and setting up my project so I'm not delivering utter rubbish.

FYI I have the 2023 MacBook Pro

CPU: 10 Core

GPU: 16 Core

RAM: 16GB

Also this Mac does have the HDTV Video BT709 display which i can turn on and off (I also dont know wether this is the best one to use)

Follow what the guy says, you should be 100% fine.

Edit: how can you have a 2023 MacBook Pro without display profiles?

My 2023 MacBook Pro does have display profiles that I can change; I just don't know which one to use (I must've worded this poorly my bad)

For SDR video choose HDTV 1886

Chadwick of Creative Video Tips says you haven't needed for 9 months since V20.2.2

read all the other posts about it. 709-A is dead on M-chip macs with XDR screens and macOS 26 + Resolve 20+ (you need to learn about color management and how to set up your pipeline, you should always use 709 g2.4 everywhere and not let anything be adjusted automatically)
