crusher11 1261 Posted July 26 Posted July 26 Everything was fine yesterday, but today most of the time when I finish watching something the screen stays black for a lengthy period of time. Sometimes 30 seconds, sometimes over a minute. I'm running the universal Android app on my NVIDIA Shied. Tried rebooting the Shield, it didn't help. I can flick my AVR over to a different input and it quickly pops up, going back to the Shield's input takes be back to the black screen. Not sure if it's an Emby issue or a Shield issue, or how to try and figure that out. My first thought was HDMI trouble but playback start is always fine.
ebr 16644 Posted July 26 Posted July 26 My guess is that the display mode is changing back. Have you started watching more DV or HDR stuff? Do you have match framerate/resolution selected?
crusher11 1261 Posted July 26 Author Posted July 26 Nothing has changed. I'm calibrating my audio system at the moment, so I'm playing the audio sweeps from the Spatial Audio Calibration Toolkit. It's taking me longer to sweep two speakers tonight than it took me to sweep all nine last night. Even coming out of HDR, it's usually a couple of seconds at most. It shouldn't be taking over a minute.
crusher11 1261 Posted July 26 Author Posted July 26 (edited) Just swept a speaker. Got a black screen after it finished. I set up the calibration software ready for the next measurement, waited around for 30 seconds or so, got up, went to the other room to grab my phone, pulled up the stopwatch app, and started timing. The screen came back on one minute and 37 one hundredths of a second later . The next one was too quick for me to time . The one after that was 1:32.15. Edited July 26 by crusher11

They're just MKV files, with AVC video and Atmos audio. Play them in Emby, record the output with a mic connected to my laptop. embyserver-63920707200.txt
ebr 16644 Posted July 26 Posted July 26 Can you reproduce the problem with any other video? If you play these with any other player how does it behave?
crusher11 1261 Posted July 26 Author Posted July 26 They were behaving just fine in Emby yesterday...
Solution yocker 1818 Posted July 26 Solution Posted July 26 I sometimes get what might be the same problem with Emby on my shield connected to an AVR. I believe the problem lies in the AVR or TV somehow having problems with the Shield changing resolution/hz and then takes a long time to recover. Disconnecting the Shield for a couple of seconds, rebooting the shield and/or AVR usually helps.
crusher11 1261 Posted July 27 Author Posted July 27 I've already tried rebooting the Shield. Didn't consider rebooting the AVR.
crusher11 1261 Posted July 27 Author Posted July 27 And indeed, rebooting the AVR seems to have resolved the issue. 1
