Black screen with Airplay

[geirisaem]

Hello,

I'm running few Trio's 8800 (5.7.2) paired with Group 310 (6.1.9) and whenever I use Airplay the connection seems to go through but all I can see is a black screen with the time counter of the session at the bottom. This must be a known issue since this is happening to all of my units.

I have other Trio's 8800 paired with the Visual+ and the Airplay works fine there.

Hi Steffen

So a Pano device is required when using Group / Trio in order to get Airplay capabilities that worked fine with Trio / Visual+?

Wireless Display(Miracast) works fine btw.
