Deihmos 169 Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 Sometimes when I turn on my TV emby is stuck with a black screen then I have to force close the app. I notice the same thing with emby on iOS. It is sometimes stuck in a black screen. What could be the cause ?
FrostByte 5392 Posted July 8, 2018 Posted July 8, 2018 Nope, I don't believe so. @Deihmos can you give us a little more information? Model TV, app version, etc. Does it just happen when the app first starts then?

When we turn the tv back on after a long while all we get is a black screen. The model is KU6300. I have 3 models ranging from 46 to 65 and notice same behavior on all.
Luke 42077 Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 Credit google for that. You might as well not even put a stop button on remotes anymore.
CBers 7450 Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 Credit google for that. Google? What have they got to do with Samsung TV's?
FrostByte 5392 Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 (edited) I just starting playing a movie and turned off my TV during play. Then I turned my TV back on after about 30 minutes and I was surprised when it immediately started playing my movie where it left off. I had never tried that before. Anyhow, I'll wait a little longer next time before turning my TV back on. Maybe it goes black if you wait too long and it can't pick up where it left off. Edited July 9, 2018 by FrostByte 1

Maybe the api_key expires? 1

Yes it will do that after a short period but give it a day and it just freezes up on a black screen for me. 1
Spaceboy 2573 Posted July 9, 2018 Posted July 9, 2018 I should also note that this does NOT happen with other media apps on iOS 1
FrostByte 5392 Posted July 10, 2018 Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) Ok, on my TV it looks like if I turn off my TV in the middle of a movie and wait long enough the app just doesn't restart itself when the TV is turned back on. Though if I turn my TV back on within a short period of time then the app auto restarts and automatically resumes my movie. If it's a problem with an expiring api key then mine appears to just not be restarting the app where as others it tries to restart and gives them a black screen? Unless it just happens occasionally.
