## How to Fix the Black Screen between Videos on Philips Screens

Some Philips displays may show a brief black screen (around 1 to 2 seconds) when switching between videos. This is caused by how the internal player handles video transitions. You can eliminate this behaviour by following the steps below:

1.  **Update EasySignage**

    -   Make sure the EasySignage app on the screen is updated to version **235 or newer**.
2.  **Disable transitions**

    -   Open the playlist and select the layer that plays the video.
    -   Set **Layer’s Transition** to **None**.

3.  **Republish the content**
    -   Click **Publish** to apply the changes to the screen.

Once these steps are applied, videos will play back-to-back with no or minimal black screen in between.
