Re: Airplay Issue - Black screen appears when Airplaying any content from iOS device

@RokuDanny-R Yesterday, I bought a Roku Ultra to use for AirPlay specifically and ran into this issue. Could you please let us know if this issue will be addressed soon? If not, Roku wouldn't be of much use for me for the AirPlay.

Re: Airplay Issue - Black screen appears when Airplaying any content from iOS device

Ran into a similar issue today. I found that if you're getting the black screen with the spinning "buffering" symbol, you have to go to your iOS device, swipe down on the control panel and hit the mirroring button that looks like two overlapping rectangles.

 

After that video appears. Udemy doesn't stream right, it only shows the course title screen though you can hear the audio. But at least the screen mirroring is working.

Any updates/progress in this issue?  Been a few months now since this has not been working and need to know if this will be resolved or if we need to start looking elsewhere

Additional information: I bought Apple TV and the same apps are streaming fine - so, it is a Roku issue.
