Lightning av adapter to HDMI no longer working after IOS16 update. Updated to current iOS 16.0.3 using Apple certified cord, turned off and on, phone is updated and backed up. It work until ios16. Another phone works, but not updated to the iOS16. For example Netflix mirrors from phone to tv and will play the trailer, but once I hit play the screen goes black and says now playing on your tv. But is not playing anything. How can I fix this issue? Thank you.
Not helpful at all. The update to IOS 16 is not compatible with the AV digital lightning plug. We full time RV and do not have WiFi. We depend on the AV plug adapter. We even bought a new one. My wife just purchased the new 14, she had s 6 which worked great. Our iPad worked great until we updated to the 16. Now nothing works. You all need to fix this and quick passing the buck to the other streaming platforms.
I called tech support and got to one of the higher-ups. He actually acknowledged it is an IOS 16 series software issue and that Apple is aware of it. Trouble is, he didn't give any specifics as to when it would be fixed or how. He thought probably through another IOS upgrade. Yikes !! Very maddening.
I am having the same issues with streaming Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max, etc. I've upgraded to iOS 16.1 as well, without any successful "fix". I am using a certified Apple OEM lightning to HDMI adapter. I've attempted the use of all SIX of my certified Apple OEM lightning to HDMI dongles with zero success of each. Either I have a black screen on my TV with audio or I have no audio and a "stuttering" video display whereby the video plays in slow motion for a second then pauses, plays again in slow-mo for a second then pauses...and so forth. Currently ONE streaming apps worked successfully...Disney+. I find it a sickening shame that I've paid for six lightning to HDMI cables at the cost of nearly $50 each and the so called "much needed" updates fail to accommodate and keep useful purpose with an Apple designed and sold accessory.
My original issue was that the "Lightning Digital AV Adapter" stopped working for one specific iPhone (connecting via HDMI to a TV for screen mirroring and Fitness+ playback). The TV would not recognize any input, the same adapter worked with a different iPhone.
My wife and I sat down this evening to watch a Prime Video we had been looking forward to watching......could not use our lightning to HDMI adaptor since updating our phones to iOS 16.2-----unbelievable. I've spent hard earned money on cables and an official Apple adapter so we can mirror movies to our TV screen in the rural area we live. Everything has worked perfectly the last couple of years until updating our iPhones to the latest software. I've been a loyal Apple customer for over 35 years and this takes the cake. We are so disappointed in how this has been handled by Apple. There should have been an immediate update released to address this issue. Apparently we are one household out of many that are presently dealing with this issue. We also do a lot of traveling in our motor home and will not be able to mirror movies to our tv until this issue is fixed. Highly disappointed.
This is ridiculous advice. Both my adaptors worked perfectly with the equipment I have until I updated to IOS 16 and now neither works! Also tried them on 2 tv's so it is not anything that I can do to fix it. This is a major bug that apple needs to fix.
Holy THANK YOU for that comment. I live remote and have spent many hours and money trying to figure out what is wrong with my phone and/or device and Apple keeps blowing it off with aloof canned suggestions and responses that are totally not helpful but incredibly time taxing.
I have a similar problem...with most of my streaming apps. Using the lightning to HDMI adaptor works fine for screen mirroring, such as using google, or photos, static content, but not for video. I've read recently that there are quite a few people with similar issues. Most of my streaming apps play, but are choppy, and have no audio. It seems this happened after I upgraded to an iPhone 14, and ios16. Everything worked great previously, iPhone 11, ios15.7. Help?
Obviously, the component cable was not supposed to be a solution but a temporary fix. However, I periodically attempted to try the HDMI. For about two years, it never worked. I simply gave up. Eventually, I bought a new Samsung 4K TV. Just before unhooking the old TV, I tried the HDMI cable on the Toshiba. It worked. Apparently, Xfinity finally fixed it...more than two years later.
I wonder if the issue is a software issue (as I was led to believe with my Toshiba). If so, you might have issues. Xfinity was very slow to admit that this was an Xfinity issue -- thinking that it was due to a defective TV or HDMI cable. And, of course, there is no component work-around because the new X1 boxes do not support component cables.
Additional information, I had been using this without issue for about two years now. Then I disconnected the TV and everything on it(probably for the first time since I first installed) since we were painting, when we went to plug things back in I noticed issues. It detects that something is plugged in but it wont recognize it as comcast and sometimes wont even display any channels. More often then not itll say that it cant be configured and asks me to do it manually but when I cancel I I can watch TV fine. but its an ongoing thing. Once I turn it off and back in I have to do the same thing all over again.
As @Heyitsrick mentioned, most content on Roku channels uses Dolby Digital+, which usually cannot be transmitted over optical. But DD+ is "real" 5.1. If your AVR doesn't have HDMI ports, it likely doesn't support DD+ either. And as mentioned very few TVs will convert DD+ to DD. Unfortunately, for the majority of online streaming today, you need an AVR with HDMI ports and DD+ support. Otherwise, 2 channel stereo is all you are going to get.
I had the same problem. I was able to get it sorta fixed by moving the Roku from the ARC HDMI input to another standard input. THis at least allowed my 5.1 plex rips to stream properly via an optical cord to the receiver.
I did discover along the way that the native apps in my new LG tv are better than Roku's. The LG even transcodes DD+ down to standard 5.1 DD via the optical cable for my old receiver which doesn't have HDMI or DD+ ability. Finally can watch netflix in full surround!
The Chromecast supports subtitles, alternative audio and 5.1 surround sound. If you have a Chromecast Ultra or Chromecast with Google TV, you can even enjoy Netflix in Ultra HD and HDR. For the best experience, make sure your TV and Wi-Fi network can handle these formats.
