A few weeks ago I replaced a small Samsung TV with a brand new 43" Samsung 4k for a whopping $270.

SAMSUNG 43" Class 4K Crystal UHD (2160P) LED Smart TV with HDR UN43TU7000 2020

TiVo Mini (RA9200) - connected via HDMI
-Software Version: 21.10.2.v6-a92-6-a92

Now, seemingly randomly, when I attempt to use my Mini and go straight to my recordings they play as a blank video (UI works fine, and the video controls / video length seem to be normal).

I can fast forward through the recording, but no video or audio plays on the Samsung, only a black screen with the TiVo user interface.

I've disconnected the power from both the Mini and the TV which does not resolve this problem. I even swapped a Mini from another room and still experience the same problem.

I've eventually found a workaround by playing live TV first, then the recordings seem to work normally after. The problem eventually comes back later.

Anyone know what may be causing this or know of a proper fix?

NOTE: I have had no problems on older TVs. Seems specific to the new model.

I believe others are reporting similar issues.

Another Mini Vox issue​

You might want to state the OS versions running on your Mini and DVR.

mini vox is software 21.10.2
Older mini is 21.10.2
Roamio is 21.10.2

Mini vox gave a v112 error today saying it couldn't connect to the main box. Older mini tried to play the show but gave the black screen with no audio/video.

Thanks KRKAUFMAN, agree this sounds very similar.

MiniBen, I couldn’t even get livetv working today. I’ll keep you posted if I figure out anything.

My wife reported the same thing happening today. Just another thing broken by another TE4 update I imagine.
