Hi,
i'm using Kodi for quite some time on my Apple TVs now and it usually works great but now i came across a problem i've never seen before (ran Kodi for several years on NVIDIA Shield before):
Some videos are not playing correctly, the start, audio works but the video is not displayed. Most times the TV just remain black, sometimes it's stuck in grey. You can hear audio just fine, so the file itself is played. The same files can be played without any issues on the same Apple TV using the official VLC App from the app store. It's also no exotic format (MKV, H264 MPEG-4 AVC part 10 avc1, 1080p).
I found no helpful error messages anywhere, is there any way to debug this, would love to know why thoose files won't work.
Thanks and kind regards
