Disney+ removes 4K and HDR from premium plans in Germany
a day ago
- Disney+ has stopped streaming 4K and HDR in Germany, even for premium subscribers, who now only see 1080p SDR quality.
- Labels for '4K Ultra HD' and 'HDR' have disappeared from the app across all device categories in Germany.
- The possible cause is a patent dispute with InterDigital, which has led to multiple court rulings and injunctions against Disney+ in Germany.
- Consumer advocates advise premium subscribers to claim a partial refund of their subscription price due to the missing features.
