AirPlay is broken after the IOS 26 update. It only streams audio even for 1080p movies that didn’t have any problems before the update. Even Screen Mirroring doesn’t fix the issue because it displays only static image.
When airplaying to Apple TV, I only get sound, no video. If I duplicate the screen, all I get is a still image of the video, and no sound.
After a bit of testing, it is happening with mkv media that has audio codec Dolby Atmos 5.1 or E-AC3 5.1
Mp4 media with audio codec ACC 2.0, works.
Happening on iPhone 15Pro and iPad Pro (M4), both on iOS 26.0.1
No issues on an old iPad with Infuse Pro 7.3

Also happening with mp4 h.264 AAC 5.1
Please help. At this time, Infuse is completely useless to me, if I can’t airplay to my TV.
Are you AirPlaying to an Apple TV or some other kind of device?
Apple TV 4K.
Also, toggling 5.1 Audio over airplay & Dolby Atmos buttons on/off in Infuse audio settings, doesn’t help.
Is anything being done about this issue? I have seen two updates since it was raised, but still unable to airplay my videos.
VLC airplays fine, so it’s not an “apple” issue. Thanks
I’m not sure if it’s related, but I noticed since iOS 26 (iPhone 15 Pro updated to latest version of iOS and Infuse) many mkv files can’t be shared via Airplay, not via Infuse nor via share screen function.
Basically, each time I share the entire screen on my tv and try to play such file, the file opens and immediately closes, which Infuse getting back to the files list. With older iOS (before 26) everything smooth, I could play the same exact file on the same exact tv (Samsung).
I still have another iPhone, older, with iOS 17. There the same file can be reproduced via Airplay on the same tv with no problems at all. So I suppose it’s iOS 26 fault.
File mentioned here: mkv container, H.264 with Dolby Digital 5.1.
I tried already to play with audio settings, but same result.
@james if needed I’m willing to send any requested log and so on. I’m Infuse user since 8 years ago and I’m willing to be

I am having the same issue. I will attach media info for two files. One works, the other does not.
Both of these used to work
I tried contacting support via email and was basically just told that AppleTV could only play certain formats… but both of these are h264 and both of these would have played fine a year ago
Very disappointing this hasn’t been resolved, I have been a paying customer for several years.
See attached media infos.
Deadpool WILL airplay properly.
The big short will NOT. It only streams audio, no video, though on my iPhone it continues to appear as if it IS streaming video, but it isn’t.
Since I am a new user it will only let me attach one attachment. I will try to post the rest after this. I have sent these in to support already.
What version numbers? iOS had an update today to 26.2 and Infuse had one not long ago to 8.3.4 .
