Whenever I try to watch live mode in the android app, I get a black screen with audio about 75% of the time. I used to get video more often but the problem is getting worse. Please help.

This is clearly an issue with the Arlo app. There are numerous issues across all platforms by reading through the previous posts. It’s become apparent that Arlo are only bothered about sales and not after sales service. The same questions keep get asked over and over and yet we seem to be treated as idiots who have never dealt with any tech before. It’s not one or two individuals. Arlo need to pull their finger out before the company gets a terrible reputation for lack of customer awareness and the ability to sort out customer complaints/queries

It's only not working in 4K direct mode. But at the same time, 4K recording to the cloud does work. And also 4K recording to the Hub too.
So - bandwith should not be a problem.
Using a Note 10+.
I thought it might be an encryption issue, but then after turning 4K view off and on, it did work for a few minutes. So. I have no clue.
Things worked before for all of us - so Arlo should be able to fix it in no time...

Regarding network traffic issue.
I don´t think that network traffic is the issue.
4K live workes fine for me when using Samsung S9+ & Samsung A40.
I have only issues with 4K-live Back screen is only when using Samsung S20 Ultra(european version).
I have had the problems since I started to use my S20 Ultra in mid-March.
Still no solution - not satisfied with Arlo actions to meet this issue!

WiFi and HDR on, when 4k is enabled I get the black screen. Then I enable tracking and I get the 1080p screen, when I then switch back to 4k it often works again, I get the 4k screen. So it does work (not always though) but it's an annoying workaround which obviously should not be the case with such an expensive camera. Haven't heard anything from James, what's up, is there no solution?

Arlo doesnt give a damn **bleep** about it.
It's ridiculous, really. I have to turn 4K off on a very expensive setup.
And it worked before so they had to change something.

Feel your pain Barto,
I am getting the same along with other issues on recordings not showing in the cloud. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app only temporaily restores the video from a black screen on the SD card for me. I am on the lates IOS app. by the way so it is not limited by OS. My system was fine in the first few month however of late I have had nothing but trouble. It seems Arlo are reluctant to admit there is a problem with their systems especially the first edition of the Ultras.

I have tried everything I think.
Factory reset of my Samsung S20 Ultra. Factory reset of my Hub. Reinstalled latest apps and reinstalled all my Ultra cameras. Still black screen when trying to view live locally, 4K.
I just have to wait for Arlo team to present a proper update of the app....😒

Obviously this system is more messed than anyone thinks .... Opening via the safari browser wouldn’t let me view the cameras until i installed adobe flash ... and that was only a couple of weeks ago.

Were you able to see 4k on Safari or 1080?

Put it this way, its definately not 4k by the looks of things and I do not have an icon in the video suggesting it is. The video takes ages to load and when it does is very jumpy.
Live feed works fine on the IOS app ie no jumps and only about a 3 second latency.

Arlo, when will you have a solution to this problem???!!! I have had a black screen for several months already, when watching live in 2K (earlier 4K) on my Samsung Galaxy S10+ (I'm always using the latest Android version). Works just fine on my iPad Pro, but not on my phone, so I cannot use the live 2K option at all! PLS FIX THE PROBLEM!!!

So: please, all, give them a 1-star-rating.
It did work before, so. It is not impossible ( and it is advertised!)
