The problem with D+ is that I have about 90% of the content that I’d want to watch anyway, did enjoy Black Hole a couple of nights back.
Disney +
- Thread starter peahead
- Start date
I've definitely seen better quality during streaming, so could this be due to the reduction in bitrate?
Soldato
Could be, unfortunately it launched with a reduced bitrate so we haven't seen it uncapped as yet.
Damn, not watched that in a loooooong while. In fact when I was a child so a looooooooooooong time
Will be looking for that at weekend

They are remaking Black Hole. Its been in development for ages though.

For some reason the App on the tv (Samsung) won’t load and says its temporary unavailable. Anyone experienced this and have a fix? It was working fine last week.
The app is working fine on my Samsung Q90R. No idea what it could be.
Have you tired the old 'delete app and reload' trick?

Got same issue. Error states it's a problem with older samsungTVs and they are working on it.

A new channel called Star is on the way but with a bit of a price hike! Disney+ new price going to £7.99pm or £79.99pa from 23rd Feb
If reports are correct, current subscribers are going to be price locked for 6 months, so if you pay monthly, consider changing to annual. Mine is due to renew (annual) on 24th March, so I hope I've read that correctly and I'll only have to pay £59.99 for the renewal.
I feel the new price is off putting, sure I'd be fine with an extra £10, but £20 just feels a bit much.

Yes I am also renew date of 24th March. I bet they won't and they'll clobber us for £79. Timed so we'll for the first subscriber's get hit with a bigger payment.
So If I was a new subscriber now I'd only pay £59 for 12 months?

Correct, I imagine once the full 12 months have been paid for, they can't change that or charge you extra after 6 months as it'd be a contract. So anyone subscribing now will get the £59.99 so long as they do it before the price increases on the 23rd. We only paid £49.99 in the beginning anyway
. Even though it's being reported that Disney are not changing subscriptions for existing users for 6 months, I can't find any actual statements from Disney about this being the case, so I don't know where they got that information from.

I hear you, other than Mando and a few of the older Marvel stuff (pre-MCU), I've not watched anything and was considering cancelling, but this year is the year Marvel content starts to come out on the platform so I've held out for now. WandaVision next week
Soldato
When are you due to renew? Will existing subscribers keep the same price?, I image that also means any customer, including Sky. So as long as you are due to renew within them 6 months, it should still be the £59.99 rate I'd hope.
Also look at this maybe? They might be able to help you extend it? I received a subscription card gift, but I'm already a Disney+ subscriber.
Personally I just sub to streaming services one at a time. Sub for a month, catch up on stuff, switch to another. Doesn't make sense to keep em all active anyway.
On a D+ month atm so catching up on the Mandalorian..
Caporegime
Think our free 6 month one my partner got through O2 is due to run out. I likely won't renew it until the next star wars series is on there.
Will be able to watch WandaVision before it expires but not massively bothered about watching other Marvel stuff the moment it appears.

Ton of new content coming soon, including age rated stuff(with new parental controls). Hopefully be worth subbing again after the cheapish year finishes in March, at the moment only really my daughter watches all the teen trash/cartoons on it.
Enjoying the behind the scenes things quite a bit. Prop Culture, Imagineering Story, Disney Insider...
Although hating the app on FireTV. Pausing is useless. Video pauses, audio continues for 10 seconds or so. Only way to stop that happening is to turn off dolby digital and have it output only stereo. Fine for the extras and behind the scenes, not for the movies and Mandalorian. Apparently been an issue for a while, not fixed yet.
