Fix Black Screen with Audio
Hearing audio but seeing a black screen is a common codec issue:
Switch Video Decoder
Toggle between hardware decoding (HW) and software decoding (SW) in your player settings. Some devices cannot hardware-decode certain video codecs.
Change Player Engine
Switch from ExoPlayer to VLC engine (or vice versa). Each engine handles different codecs differently.
Lower Resolution Output
Go to your device display settings and change output from 4K to 1080p. Some HDMI cables or older TVs do not support 4K HEVC passthrough.
Update Device Firmware
Ensure your streaming device firmware is up to date. Firmware updates often include improved video codec support.
Live Stream Activation
Dynamic application connection mapping 4K UHD feed parameters.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do only 4K channels show black screen?
Your device may not support HEVC/H.265 hardware decoding required for 4K streams. Switch to software decoding or watch the HD version of the channel.
