[bobkazar]

Hi guys, i just relaunch my Hackintosh, EL Capitan 10.11.6 on my I5 3970K + MSI GTX970.
The tricks doesn't work on my hackintosh, the screen keep going black .
I use Clover to install Kext to UEFI and i connect my moniter with a DVI cable, i use the Nvidia web driver

when I use the command in the terminal, it is stated that coromedia does not work, for the other lines the patch is not applied.

Hi guys, i did this fix on my El capitan 10.11.6 and it worked. But yesterday when i tried to watch the live stream of apple music festival i got a black screen and the video was not playing. Any thoughts/solutions? Also today i can't watch the same video on demand i get the same problem. Thanks

If you've already fixed the problem please ignore but be aware that the update to Sierra breaks the iTune Fix in some cases, you have to go through the whole process again to enable movies and trailer playing in iTunes. Note also the Shiki.Kext has been updated for Sierra.

Confirmed - latest release and OP instructions work well on Sierra. Also confirmed imac.kext not needed for my system. I honestly can't remember why I had to use in before Sierra.

Doesn't work on my setup
I've tried several times, but nothing.

- Putting the kext into /S/L/E = Nothing
- Putting the kext into /L/E = Nothing
- Putting the kext into /EFI/CLOVER/kexts/... = Nothing

/////=========///// EDIT!
I've tried using the iMac.kext (putting into /EFI/CLOVER/kexts) and now works fine in my setup.

But for AMF10 doesn't work. Some times (when I tried) iTunes suddenly closed raising this error:

Crashed Thread: 33 Dispatch queue: com.apple.coremedia.player.async.0x608000b085e0

Still only SD playback. I ran VDADecoderCheck and it doesn't give the output needed. This is what it returns:

GVA error: Not detecting IGPU in IORegistry!
GVA error: Not detecting valid offline codec!
GVA info: Successfully connected to the Intel plugin, offline Gen6
IOVARendererID property not found
AVDCreateGPUAccelerator: Error loading GPU renderer
An error was returned by the decoder layer. This may happen for example because of bitstream/data errors during a decode operation. This error may also be returned from VDADecoderCreate when hardware decoder resources are available on the system but currently in use by another process.
VDADecoderCreate failed. err: -12473

Can anyone help me with this? I ran the instruction described in post #1.

Previously I had HD 530. I activated and it was working fine. Now I installed GTX 950 and it is now stopped woking. Again installed Shiki.kext and pasted those commands in terminal. I'm getting the error

sudo defaults delete com.apple.coremedia

I use to have this work on ElCapitan and I just loaded Sierra but this does not seem to work anymore under Sierra.

I cannot play movie purchased from iTunes.

The kext is loaded:

24 0 0xffffff7f82cee000 0x33000 0x33000 as.vit9696.Shiki (1.8.1) 112F4B24-FBD5-3192-80C5-5FAA985E1501 <7 5 4 3 2 1>


But when I hit play, it will not start. Blank screen.

Also when launching iTunes from Command line I get:

2016-10-08 14:32:45.404 iTunes[513:37262] .sdef warning for attribute 'rawData' of class 'artwork' in suite 'iTunes Suite': 'raw data' is not a valid type name.

Any hint ?

No luck for me. I'm trying to play music videos from Apple Music in iTunes, but was greeted with the black screen.
