Screen mirroring from macbook to apple TV 4k not showing video

When screen mirroring from my 2015 macbook pro to my apple TV 4k, I can get sound from videos but not the actual video, just a black/blank screen. When screen mirroring the same video from my iphone 13 I am able to get sound and picture just fine. When screen mirroring from youtube.com on my macbook it works fine, but from other websites like CBS or ballysports etc., I can't get videos to play.


I have tried different browsers and websites. My macbook is updated with the latest macOS.

Browser video (on desktop) may have different AirPlay permissions/​support/​accommodations than the video in an iOS app for the same service. This is set by the content provider.

Not all content provides allow their content to be mirrored. First, please verify with the providers what they will and will not allow. Next, if you find the content is supposed to be allowed to be mirrored please check your Wi-Fi inside the home. Sounds like a possible weak signal.
