Disney+ is disabling Dolby Vision, HDR10+, more for some users

If you’ve noticed that HDR formats including Dolby Vision have suddenly stopped working on Disney+, you’re not alone, and it’s actually an intentional change.

Disney announced a billion dollar agreement with OpenAI this morning over use of its characters, and Google’s going to have to pray it doesn’t alter the deal any further.

Black Friday 2025 is in full swing, with many discounts opening up this week. It’s also the best time of the year to get on a streaming service, as major streamers such as Disney+, HBO Max, and Apple TV are all heavily discounted for Black Friday.

Google and Disney might’ve reached a deal to return the latter’s channels to YouTube TV nearly two weeks ago, but there was still some unfinished business surrounding the breakup when it came to your personal movie library. Thankfully, on both the purchasing front and the Movies Anywhere front, things should be returning to normal very soon.

After nearly two weeks of channels being dark, YouTube TV and Disney have officially settled on a new deal which will last multiple years, and has already brought ESPN and ABC channels back online.

YouTube TV subscribers are about to enter their third straight week of Disney-owned properties being held off-the-air as part of a carriage dispute between the two brands, and while momentum is seemingly building towards a deal, there doesn’t appear to be an end in sight.

The YouTube TV and Disney feud continues to rage on, with the latest reporting suggesting that YouTube TV may now be the hang-up, as Disney has allegedly offered rates compared to other major TV providers, but YouTube TV still wants to pay less.

As the YouTube TV vs Disney feud continues to roll on, a new report suggests that the $20 credit Google promised in the event of an “extended period” without the channels is apparently set to be sent to subscribers on November 9.

The fight between Disney and YouTube TV might seem fairly commonplace on the surface, especially if you’ve followed any carriage disputes in the pre-streaming era. But despite Google’s cable replacement showing no signs of slowing down its growth, the stalemate between it and the House of Mouse has already expanded well beyond its usual scope, without any signs of peace coming any time soon.

Over a week after channels first vanished, there’s no sign of a deal between Disney and YouTube TV, with a “leaked” Disney memo and YouTube’s response no signaling that either side is giving in.

The ongoing battle between YouTube TV and Disney continues to be a loss for everyone, as Google has confirmed there’s been “managable” subscriber churn as some users cancel their service, while Disney is also seeing a drop in live viewers.

Amid an ongoing feud with YouTube TV, Disney asked the streamer to temporarily revive ABC in favor of “the public interest,” to which YouTube TV has not only said no, but said that its subscribers specifically chose not to watch ABC on the past two Election Days.

We’re entering our first full week of Google’s fight with Disney over its YouTube TV agreements, and the pain is starting to spread. In addition to the looming threat of missing out on Monday Night Football, Disney has seemingly pulled its content from Google Play over its failed negotiations.

As YouTube TV continues to play tug-of-war with Disney over a new contract, channels like ESPN, ABC, and quite a few more are currently missing from the streaming service. Here’s where you can find Disney’s content without subscribing to Google’s cable alternative.

The fallout from YouTube TV’s deal with Disney was felt by subscribers over the weekend, but a new report citing a YouTube TV executive reveals some of the behind-the-scenes drama, suggesting that Disney has been “aggressive” in negotiations.

YouTube TV customers have lost access to ABC, ESPN, and other Disney-owned channels this evening as a contract between Google and Disney failed to reach a renewal in negotiations, and it results in over 20 channels going dark.

With the clock ticking on YouTube TV’s deal with Disney, a new report reveals that Google’s streamer has at least one big demand for Disney.

In the latest round of heated negotiations, YouTube TV is now at risk of losing channels from Disney including the likes of ESPN and ABC.

Following comments teasing the change from Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav, HBO Max has today made a price hike official, with prices going up by around 10% on all plans.

Disney has officially confirmed that Hulu will go global as a part of the redesigned Disney+ app that’s coming to Google TV and other platforms early next year.
