MacOS DisplayLink Manager Screen Recording permission blocks streaming (Netflix, etc)
Video streaming services such as Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime, etc. show a black screen and only play audio when the permission is enabled (permission-enabled required to use monitor). This is due to their intellectual property safeguards, but the DisplayLink software should NOT cause this to happen through such interference.
2020 MacBook Air M1 running latest MacOS Monterey Browser: Safari Version 15.1 (I've tested this on Chrome too - no difference) DisplayLink Manager 1.5.0 (Build 58.125) ASUS ZenScreen MB16ACE 15.6” Portable USB Type-C Monitor Without the permission enabled (and hence the DisplayLink software running), the monitor does not work!!! This is unacceptable as it renders the expensive monitor useless for watching video streaming services. The DisplayLink software should NOT interfere with common user activities such as this. Urgent fix is needed. |
Agree and bump
I do not know how everyone else views this issue, but it makes DisplayLink on macOS somewhat embarrassing. On Windows, users have few (if any) limitations. Granted, Windows is a dumpster fire, but I do not know why this is such an issue on macOS and cannot be rewritten to allow all of the native functions in the OS.

Is this OS dependent?
I've just hit this issue (with NOW TV streaming) - I'm running Catalina. The DisplayLink information says that Catalina needs screen recording permission to access the pixels to redisplay them. Is this not the case with Big Sur (for instance)? Should I upgrade?

I have the same issues on playing Netflix or Disney+ using displaylink
I have the same issues as yours on playback Netflix and Disney+ using DisplayLink. However, I don't know how to resolve it because I need to work on 3 monitors but I want to reserve one screen for watching video streaming.
Can anyone help me the solution?? |
I'm having the same issue after update Monterey for 12.3.1

Same issue
I wasn't having this issue until today. I think my computer automatically updated something and now I'm having dark screens with video. However, if I connect a screen individually to my computer it does get video but I can't use the other two screens. Any ideas on how to fix? It was fine before today.

Same issue
It apparently happened over the weekend. I can hear my video and see subtitles but video shows nothing. PLEASE FIX ASAP as this should be a VERY basic thing for users.:mad:
