HDMI-Adapter doesn’t work on Amazon Prime

Bought an original Apple HDMI-Adapter when inserting it for the first time (iPhone 11 pro) it loaded some firmware connection to a TV worked and I could watch movies on my Amazon Prime Account.

After an to iOS 17.4.1 displaying movies doesn’t work any longer. Tried to enforce a reload of the firmware, but was unable to do so, nothing I found on the internet so far worked. Has anyone an idea?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 17

I have been using a genuine apple lightning to HDMI adapter for years with amazon prime and now (since iphone upgrade to version 17.4.1) it won't play on the TV. The phone just stops playing the show as soon as it is plugged in to the adapter and sits there spinning it's wheels as though it is buffering.

I tried reloading the Prime Video App, turning phone off and on but no good.

Can Apple please fix this issue as it has happened only since the latest version.

I have a similar problem. Prime Video and Netflix actually play but I only get sound. BBC iPlayer works ok but not full screen. I haven’t tried all my streaming services but it is all down to the iPhone software upgrade. In addition I use an Apple connector that allows the iPhone to charge at the same time as being connected to the HDMI cable and this no longer functions either.

not ver good. I rely on these when overseas.

To the OP and others posting here: Apple, may or may not, read these comments. As such, have each of you submitted your issue/request directly to Apple yet? If no, I suggest that you do here: Product Feedback - Apple


For those that have posted what they have tried, but were still unsuccessful, thanks as this will help others with this issue not to waste any time or effort trying the same thing.
