Popular Use Cases
Video Editing
Fade-to-black transitions, title card backgrounds, spacers, and placeholder clips. Pre-made files in your project’s exact resolution and format eliminate re-encoding steps in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro.
OLED & Display Testing
Spot burn-in, dead pixels, and backlight bleed on OLED and LCD panels. A uniform black video makes ghost images and contrast issues immediately visible — essential for testing new displays or diagnosing screen problems.
Presentations & Events
Clean standby screens before talks, during conference breaks, or between acts at live events. A black video on a projector looks far more polished than a desktop wallpaper or “no signal” message.
Sleep & Relaxation
Keep your device screen dark while other apps handle audio. Pair a black screen video with your favorite sleep or meditation app — the screen stays on with near-zero light emission.
Content Creation
YouTubers and streamers use black screen clips as backgrounds for text overlays, ASMR videos, and audio-only uploads. Pure black ensures readability and a professional look.
Device Keep-Awake
Playing a black screen video prevents phones, tablets, and laptops from sleeping — with minimal battery drain from screen brightness. No third-party keep-awake app needed.
