Hi All
Right as were all in ‘solitary’ the TV is going to get a workout
So Disney Plus launches Tuesday 24th with everything Star Wars / Marvel / Nat Geo and of course The Mandalorian
But having registered i have now discovered my ‘ancient’ 2016 ! Samsung 4k TV does not support the app so..
New tv ...rather not
Or fire stick....to access the Disney Plus App...have tried to find Disney Plus but not showing hmmmm or will it show from Tuesday do we think ?
Any input welcome
Thanks
Tim
I am hoping it will show Tuesday, having paid for the year. Also not showing on iOS devices either currently.
thanks for that...at least I know its not just meQuote:

I was going to pay for the year in advance just for The Mandalorian. Then I read that The Mandalorian release schedule would be one episode a week apart from the first week when there would be two. Then I read that Disney+ would be available at £7.99 a month as opposed to an annual subscription. I’m not interested in any other content on the platform
I have to be honest and say that I do fully appreciate having one of these ‘First World Problems’ at the moment :)
I have got a Fire Stick this week which supports Disney+ which I can use on my Sony 2014. The app is not available until 24th.
My other Sony from 2015 is not an Android tv so I cannot install the app (or any app). But have saved the browser for Disney and so hopefully should be able to view via this.
Otherwise if the Disney app on my android mobile allows casting to my Sony 2015 tv, I may be able to watch this way. I can cast You Tube for example.
If rambling are a bit confusing, I am a complete novice to this new technology.
I have a 2015 Samsung tv which won’t have the app, but it’s hooked up to Sky who will have it operating like Netflix through the Sky Q box. Also have a Philips Android Tv which will have the app, and various iOS devices to stream from. I don’t think the apps are launched until the 24th, not showing anywhere as yet. The Mandalorian is excellent, I’ve already seen it but still signing up as it’s worth a re-watch, and £49.99 for all that content considering any random tv series dvd box set used to be £20 upwards seems a bargain to me, even without all the self isolation!!

I think it will show by tomorrow
App has appeared, had to download the latest update to my sky box but its there. Next question, what's this going to cost me?!
Just watched the Mandalorian .....very very enjoyable i do hope there are 84 episodes.....
My 2016 LG OLEDB6 alerted me that the app was available to install this morning.
My Panasonic doesn’t support it so I installed on PS4 Pro. However HDR and Dolby Vision are not available. Any ideas?
£5.99 a month from Disney, think you can get it for a year for £60 up-frontQuote:

Will start the Mandalorian later with the SO when I've finished WFH :unconscious:
I've downloaded the app on my Android phone and the Samsung TV so far and they work fine. The selection is as expected. However pretty disappointed that they haven't just released all Mandalorian chapters and the clone wars series is 3 weeks behind the US.
Do you get HDR and Dolby Atmos?Quote:

Dolby Vision is HDR. I don't get HLG HDR either. I can't get HDR on the PS4 or Sky Q. I do have HDR support for games on the PS4.Quote:

I am also aware that PS4 Pro can only do standard HDR, but it does support Dolby Atmos
None available though...
Thinking about it, I have only ever seen Dolby Atmos logo appear on the screen when playing DA Blu-rays.
Any differences between the US and UK version like with Netflix?
There are some differences due to Disney having different rights agreements in different countries. At some point in the future when Disney has clawed back all its rights they will be the same. I have no examples of content on one but not on the other though as there doesn’t seem to be a way to see what is on the US version from here. What I can say is there is a lot of content on it.Quote:

That’s because it’s for kids. Disney have another streaming service called Hulu which is intended for an older audience. Hulu is only in the US at the moment but is planned to launch in the rest of the world in the next couple of years as rights revert to Disney.Quote:
