No picture when plugged in using HDMI, android 4.4.2 Nexus 5
I can play any video file without problem on my Nexus 5, but if I plug it into my TV using HDMI/Slimport there's just audio. If I use another player, say MX Player, there's no problem at all. When True Detective was new, a few monts ago, there was no problem with VLC and HDMI so clearly something has changed in recent versions. I have tried different formats and containers such as MKV, AVI and MP4 and the problem remains.
My setup:
Nexus 5 Android 4.4.2 VLC 87aab91 (2014-04-16) Compiled by buildslave@altair 2014-04-16
