Just taking a guess here. I think the DisplayLink creates the second display on M1 MacBooks by "recording" a desktop to be viewed on the second screen. Because the MacBook detects screen recording it will not let the protected content be displayed.

If this is the case, there will not be a resolution to this. It is a feature, not a bug...

The issue is due to HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) - check the following article: https://support.displaylink.com/knowledgebase/articles/830301-content-protected-video-does-not-play-on-mac-while

Me 2 what's the update ?

The issue seems to be still ongoing. I have the same thing :(

I am having the same issue except display link driver seems to shut down and apple TV screen mirror takes over. can they coexist and run at the same time?

I wish, the problem can solve. Now, i use udemy to learn something online. The site uses videos to learn. If the display driver runs, the contents isn't shown on the screen.
Quitting the driver or disconnect the wav link device solves the problem.

Sure wish we could get a solution to this problem.

I'm having the same issue, now with YouTube TV.

any updates on this?

Same behavior as described and same behavior with Beta 1.6.0 (Build 59.110). Blackscreen but with Sound. Quitting DisplayPortManager resolves the problem.

I have the same issue with Apple TV and SkyGo

Same problem with Netflix

Same problem here. Displaylink will block Apple app from displaying any video. Running Display link Manager 1.5.0 Build 58.125

I am having same problem. Apple TV will launch display video as expected for about 5 seconds then video will go black while sound continues.
