Black screen in iTunes

I am having the exact same issue.

The problem occoured 3 days ago. I have just recently converted alot of movies to Itunes, I cant view any of them.

Though VLC can play them. I thought it was just my new conversions that were bad, but all my old movies doesn't work either. They used to work a few days ago. In fact, I just watched Inglorious Basterds.

I Have exactly the same problem .. Does anyone know have to resolve it definitely ?

I'm having the exact same issue. And it started just a couple of days ago after updating to the iTunes 10.1.1.4 version.

Same Issue. This is really annoying. I have version 10.1.1.4 as well. Is there a fix in the works? The tv show I downloaded from the iTunes store runs fine in QuickTime...

I experience the same problem in iTunes. Will Apple settle this annoying problem?

Same issue as well. It just started happening to me tonight.

It seems the common denominator here is Apple TV. I installed one at the weekend at my home. I tried to watch a pre-downloaded movie on my Macbook last night from my hotel room and I could only hear the movie soundtrack, no video, just a black screen. Hmmm, not impressed.

I'll hook up my Macbook to the Apple TV again at the weekend and see whether the problem is resolved but it seems there may be a problem with my Apple TV set up. Not sure what else to do other than speak to Apple which doesn't entirely fill me with hope.

same issue for me as well!

Folks - same problem. Everything was fine but I used airtunes for the first time to stream video yesterday and since then....nada. Help please!!!

It is interesting that this seems to be effecting a lot of people at the same time, my movies have started doing this also over the past few days, they work fine on my ATV2, I also discovered if I ran a movie, hit esc then hit space to start it playing again it works fine.

Same problem here, I also have an ATV2

Here's what fixed it for me:

• Rebooted
• Opened iTunes
• On the bottom of the window selected "Computer" instead of "Apple TV"

No more black screen, movies playing like before

Same issue here; none of the suggestions in this thread (so far) have worked as a permanent fix unfortunately.

Not sure what happened to start this problem, but it's rather annoying.
