While you are on CAL1, you should use as default profile the one you created with DUCCS fro CAL1. When you switch to CAL2, you should go to Control Panel / color management and select as default the one you made with DUCCS for CAL2.
If you switch to "Standard" preset and that preset calibration hat somehow "usable" white and grey calibration, you can use driver/default profile.
Same for other OSD modes, but if you use DUCCS it means that you have a measurement device, hence it is advised to make your own custom profiles (GPU calibration, as opposed to DUCCS' HW calibration) for those modes, specially Custom Color wich allos you to fine tune whitepoint.
Every time you switch from one OSD mode to another you'll have to change default profile associated to that screen, otherwise color managed apps won't work as expected because they will "believe" that display behaves as default ICC profile says.
I have been challenged with calibrating my monitor with DUCCS for over a year. Until I can figure it out, I have been using the standard i1 Profiler app. So, I would welcome a user guide or youtube video going through the process step-by-step.
It's like i1Profiler... it's actually an old i1Profiler (a very old one that Dell does not want to update).
While i1Profiler is meant to be used in Custom Color OSD and fix white by DDC/CI or manual RGB gain tweak in OSD, DUCCS is meant to be used in CAL2/CAL2. No need to change to CAL1/2, DUCCS will do it when you select where to store calibration.
While i1Profiler asks a target white point and gamma because GPU calibration can only fix greys, DUCCS asks for colorspace simulation: native (full gamut), AdobeRGB (smaller), sRGB (smaller) or custom coordinates (for example sRGB colorspace but another white or 2.4 gamma).
Typical photo work is gamma 2.2, native gamut and white of our choosing: D65 (typical) or D50 (match to prints with normalized light). Typical video work is "custom xy" mode, choose xy coordinates of RGB in wikipedia for sRGB/Rec709, choose D65 white and 2.4 gamma (or 2.2). sRGB preset aims for the same but sRGB-like gamma, you do not want it for video. Do not use Rec709 preset in DUCCS.
