Hi @fmm

Thanks for reporting your issue. Could you try to disable OpenGL from the ScalerSettings application.

This should solve the black screen issue.

> Hi @Jazzguy You can disable OpenGLRendering from the ScalerSettings application. MacOS: Press CMD+Space to open the Spotlight Search and type “ ScalerSettings ” Windows: Press the Windows key to open the search and type “ ScalerSettings ” Go to the Help page and click “Turn OFF OpenGL”:

Cheers,  
Ed
