Movies and tv programmes won't start in a completely properly set up all apple environment
I know this has been raised many times before - but it still keeps happening: randomly, after an update to either the system or to iTunes, Tv programmes and movies just show a black screen and won't start playing - and still do that if you move further into the movie.
This is happening right now with Mojave 10.14.3 and iTunes 12.9.2.5 on a newish MacBook Pro 13" 2017, all set up properly, playing (or rather not playing) a copy of A Star is Born bought from the iTunes store, and that plays perfectly well on my much older iMac. It launches the front screen (play vs extras etc), but that's as far as it goes.
