Disney+ Corrects Dolby Vision HDR Issue After Disagreement

Last month, Disney+ users were hit with a temporary loss of Dolby Vision and HDR10+ support, as well as 3D content on the Apple Vision Pro headset in specific regions. The issue arose due to a patent dispute, prompting Disney to remove mention of these formats from support pages, creating frustration for viewers in those affected areas.

The good news is that the problem has now been resolved, and Dolby Vision and 3D support have been reinstated on Disney+. The dispute, which originated from a lawsuit at a German patent court, has been settled, and the formats are gradually being restored to all users. Disney has issued a statement expressing its disappointment at the situation and assuring viewers that they have worked diligently to provide the best possible experience on their devices.

While Disney’s support page may still lack mention of Dolby Vision, users who were impacted by the loss of these formats can rest assured that they are in the process of being fully restored. If you are in a region that was affected and still do not see Dolby Vision, be sure to check for app updates to ensure you are benefiting from the recent fixes.
