Screen sharing shows black screen to other participants - MacOs Big Sur

Hi all!

I have recently upgraded my MacBook Pro 2018 to MacOS BigSur. Since then when i try to share screen in MS Teams everything looks fine on my end but the other call participants do see only black screen. I do have "use new teams experience" checked in the app setting.

 

I have tried to (without success):

  • change privacy setting - allow screen recording for the Microsoft Teams app
  • log out/log in
  • reinstall teams app
  • clear some folders as described in https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/sharing-only-black-screen-in-ms-teams-desktop/506b36bc-3d57-449a-8e46-aa49a322277d

Nothing had any positive effect. Would anyone have an idea?

 

Best regards,

Milos

    milkalswe I guess you still need permissions set. As we are using it on our machines without a problem. If problem persists please report a bug.

      Paul_KeijzersHi, it was so weird, i couldn't make it work that day, performed what i wrote above... and suddenly a day later things worked. "Magic"

      Issue solved itself.
