Postby emilroe » 22 May 2018 20:32

Hey guys, i'm having a bit of a break down here.

When i use airplay from the VLC app (ios) with my apple tv, my TV only plays the sound.
Everything looks normal up until i select my apple TV for playing, and then only playing sound.

My apple TV is either 2. or 3. gen...

PLEASE HELP!!!!! I AM DESPERATE!!!!!

Thank you in advance...

Emil

Regrettably, you need to enable AirPlay mirroring. Otherwise, you will not get any video as VLC currently does support the proper way to output video via AirPlay.
