Black Screen Video
Ten seconds of pure black video with a silent (not missing) audio track, so it behaves like any other clip in an editor or player rather than causing a broken video-with-no-audio warning.

Frequently asked questions
- Why include a silent audio track instead of no audio at all?
- Some players and editors handle a video-only file awkwardly; a real silent stereo track keeps it behaving like any normal clip.
- Is this useful for OLED screens?
- Some people use a true black frame as filler between content to avoid unnecessary backlight/pixel activity on OLED displays.
