Same here: black window, in FaceTime and Photo Booth, with MBP11,3 and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Another glitch is that paravirtualized graphics doesn’t work anymore, in Parallels 19 macOS VMs; and also other minor things: problems which might depend on the apps, on the system (Sonoma), or be related to OCLP - so, we’ll see if there will be any improvements, in the future…
… BTW, a very strange glitch that I have (only on the MBP11,3: Nvidia Kepler-related, maybe…?) is that, when there is a macOS software update, the “Update” button in System Settings is very laggy (it can take several seconds before it reacts) and the license agreement window won’t appear anymore (it will start downloading directly, without asking for any confirmation): who knows what could be causing this strange behaviour…?
A word on Screen Mirroring please?
It is the only feature I would like to have that is not working on any of my Macs with OCLP.
My rMBP 2012:s are the more important ones. Is it working for you with OCLP?
Airplay works fine, but not Screen Mirroring to an Apple TV 4K latest gen.
Grateful for any hints?
All My Macs are now on Sonoma 14.2RC2 and OCLP 1.3.0n. All good other than Screen Mirroring

Could be iGPU related. I think rendering of the License Agreement is handled by CoreGraphics. There's a flag for RestrictEvents which prevents CoreGraphics from crahsing by disabling the f16c instruction set. It's called revpatch=f16c meant to be used on Ivy Bridge. But I don't know if this has any effect on Haswell CPUs, since CoreGraphics is not really crashing in your case.

Did not work in Ventura for sure, but can't say 100% in Big Sur or Monterey as so much has changed, including the computers I use...
I don't have an AppleTV to test , so I just tested screen-mirroring to Roku on my MBP6,2 (currently running Ventura) and found that screen-mirroring fails to connect to Roku. The attempt to connect appears on the Roku TV, but then the connection failure is reported on my MBP.
EDIT: @houser I just tested Big Sur and Monterey and found that screen-mirroring to Roku wasn't available in Big Sur and it doesn't work in Monterey (on my MBP6,2).

Thanks for confirming, appreciated. FWIW I can screen-mirror between any of my OCLP Macs but not to the one that matters: The Apple TV.
Edit: I read that this is a somewhat known and recurring issue with Apple TV on Macs regardless of OCLP.
A black screen when screen mirroring, and it looks like it is working on the MacBooks but black screen on ATV, which is what I see.
Some Hackintosh folks have gotten around it apparently by spoofing to other Mac models. Not sure I want to mess with that as performance right now is the best I have had and very happy other than the screen mirroring which is pretty useful at times.

I just realized that I have my network segmented so that my Roku and Mac are not on the same wireless network (and it would take a bit of work to change that for a test). Because of that, my test results are probably not valid (even if they do "agree" with yours).
Apple released macOS 14.2 (23C64 same as RC 2)

Apple's macOS Sonoma 14.2 final appears to be same build as RC2, 23C64.
my weakest point...ok, I now understand that KDK (23C63) was still for the RC and we need to wait for an updated KDK pack if we need it for manual installation. I assume that OCLP 1.3.0 will however download the matching 23C64 version already... Update: in this second it was published...☺️Patience is a virtue.
Dang!!! Then I missed it---I'll have to wait for another 1 second release! Ready....
I just finished updating my Mid2015 15-inch MBP to Sonoma 14.2 using OCLP 1.3.0 and the entire install process went smoothly. Awesome job!

Currently updating a 2012 Mini to 14.2. We will see the results ...
That’s my exact model…glad to hear and I will update later tonight. Good to know and thanks for posting.
Awesome job by the OpenCore Legacy Patcher dev team! Thanks to everyone involved for making this a possibility.

Your issue has been covered extensively on this thread. Do a little research? 🤷♂️
