Hi,

I purchased a new Google TV Streamer box and side loaded the MyFamilyCinema app on it.  When I try to watch a tv show or movie, I only get audio from what I am watching (and subtitles) but no video.  On older Google TV units where I have side loaded the app it has worked fine and continues to work fine on my two other accounts.  But I cannot get it to work on the newer Google TV Streamer.   One main difference is I run the Google TV Streambox on Ethernet vs wifi, but that is one of the reasons I purchased it.  When I have tried it on wifi i get the same issue.

Can anyone help?  Is it due to display settings?  The new Google TV Streamer does support things like Dolby Vision and HDR10, HDR10+ and HLG.

That’s right. It works fine on the old Google TV Chromecast 4K, but I get the same black screen with audio on the new Google TV Streamer 4K. It’s clearly a problem with the app on the newer device. 

The MyFamilyCinema team hasn’t acknowledged the issue yet and neither has offered a way forward to have the issue resolved.

Is this just for customers or does the FamilyCinema team read these forums?

Good question. And even if they read they are not of much help in getting this problem solved.

Any chance someone will have a look at this and give us a reason why it's not working?
