Screen Mirroring - audio yes, video no?

Not able to use screen mirroring macbook pro to apple tv. Can get the screen to appear but when trying to play video content - the audio comes through clearly but video is not visible. Can only see images in the thumbnail. Have tried updating both devices and turning both off and on again.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.5

Hi KCA_21Map,


Make sure you're following the steps outlined here: Use AirPlay to stream what’s on your Mac to an HDTV

1. Make sure your Mac and Apple TV are on the same network.
2. Click the Screen Mirroring icon  in the Control Center, then choose your Apple TV. 
3. To set whether your desktop matches the size of the Mac screen or the TV screen, click the AirPlay status icon  then choose This Mac or your Apple TV. When you’re using AirPlay Mirroring, the AirPlay status icon in the menu bar is blue.


Then review the steps in this article: If screen mirroring or streaming isn't working on your AirPlay-compatible device

Try these steps first
After each step, see if you still need help. 

1. Make sure that your AirPlay-compatible devices are turned on and near each other.
2. Check that the devices are updated to the latest software and are on the same Wi-Fi network. 
3. Restart the devices that you want to use with AirPlay or screen mirroring.
4. If you're prompted to enter a password, you might have restrictions turned on, or you might need to adjust your AirPlay password settings.


Best regards.
