Jack Burton 94 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 This morning everything worked fine. Left things alone for about 2 hours, came back and booted up ET. Now I only get a black screen, no log in, no spinning circle, nothing, Running version 2.5.27. Installed 2.5.26 which worked fine before and still no go. Added the last 4 logs. Is it hanging after checking for updates? theater-63613264803.txt theater-63613265111.txt theater-63613265429.txt theater-63613273271.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgainemonk 0 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 yes, I'm having a similar issue... Full screen = black/blank... Still getting mouse cursor changing from arrow to pointing finger wherever I'm guessing my content is... A double click anywhere there's no finger (i.e the arrow cursor) minimises window, and everything works - including playing... back to fullscreen = blank again..

Luke 36879 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 I noticed this on one test machine following a Windows 10 fast ring update. It starts black but fixes itself with a double click. Since it is a machine on the fast ring I haven't looked into it yet since these kinds of things often get fixed with the next update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibbes 429 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) I'm having this issue now. It's installed on a Win10 1607 build and worked till late this afternoon. For whatever reason, ET just gives a Black screen. I've tried reinstalling to 2.5.30, but nogo. When pressing the back button, the emby logo shows, but it doesn't seem to react to anything else after. The UWP version installs and runs without issues Edited December 6, 2016 by Dibbes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbl77 3 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 I noticed this on one test machine following a Windows 10 fast ring update. It starts black but fixes itself with a double click. Since it is a machine on the fast ring I haven't looked into it yet since these kinds of things often get fixed with the next update. No update have been applied on either of my machines since Nov 27....and both rebooted numerous times since then and worked just fine. All I did was restart ET because coming out of sleep the fullscreen was messed. BTW....what is this "double click" you speak of??? Tried uninstalling completely....re-installed. Even went so far as to bypass the installer and pull straight from GitHub and same thing. One thing that strike me is that this is in my logs (attached both from installer and GitHub download) 2016-12-06 13:47:58.6947 Error App: Secure requested, but no certificate found at: theater-63616627544.txt theater-63616628877.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomasstendahl 2 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 +1 here, too Win10 64-bit AMD A-6. Tried all of the suggestions on other threads with no effect. Black screen. Mouse point does not change at all other than corners/edges which seem to be resizable. Otherwise unresponsive. Was working perfectly well until I tried to watch a trailer on YouTube. Help! The missus is going to kill me soon - it's our main front room TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundmarsh 1 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Same here. This morning the kids turned on the TV to a blank screen. I had to windows key to bring up start menu and kill emby theater. It has not worked since. We have been using the chrome app as an alternative for now. I have one machine that stay up to date and another that has updates turned off and both have same issue. This appears to be an Emby Theater issue. Was there an auto update to emby last night? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELORAN 0 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 +1 Upon carefully looking at the black screen, I exit the program and instantly notice a Net Framework window appear and disappear. I don't know if that's normal or not. See if you all notice... Thought it might help troubleshoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpsons11 2 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 This happened to me today. All clients load with a black screen. The last time this happened to me, it was a networking issue. Once all the computers got in the home group it worked just fine. The issue is everything on my network is right. I can stream movies from the web browser and from WMC Emby, its just Emby theater that is having the issues. Was working just fine this morning.

Jobber8742 9 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Same issue here as well. Was watching a show, then it became unresponsive, restarted Theater and then just a black screen. All 3 PC's with Theater are now responding the same. Something definitely screwed up. Hope they get it running again. It's been down all day. Had to revert back to the old WMC app. Glad I never uninstalled it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36879 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Hi guys, I apologize for the disruption. I've just pushed an update to resolve it. Your installation will download the changes on it's own within the next 24 hours, but here is how you can get them immediately. Shut down the app, then delete the following folder: C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Theater\data\electron\Service Worker Making sure to substitute {user} with your windows user name. Please let me know if this resolves it for you. Thanks ! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
