Disney+ begins rolling out HDR10+ support

Disney+ Enters High Dynamic Range Territory with Limited Initial Offering

In a move to enhance its streaming experience, Disney+ is slowly rolling out support for HDR10+, a more advanced high dynamic range technology. Initially, approximately 1,000 shows from Hulu will be available in this format, though other content under the Disney umbrella remains pending at an unspecified future date.

Samsung has been instrumental in promoting HDR10+, and its partnership with Disney+ marks another notable adoption of the standard. The service will first offer HDR10+- enabled content on Samsung Crystal UHD TVs and higher models from 2018 onwards, as well as select smart monitors. This initial rollout aims to bring improved image quality to a broader audience.

HDR10+ builds upon the existing HDR10 tech by offering enhanced contrast, brightness, and color accuracy in each scene. While not directly comparable to Dolby Vision, it provides a similar viewer experience when supported hardware is present. Netflix had already announced its support for HDR10+ in March, but this development marks an important milestone for other streaming platforms like Disney+.
 
πŸ“Ί just saw the news about Disney+ going 4K πŸ™Œ but they're only offering it on 1k shows from Hulu lol what about all their own content? πŸ€” I'm curious if it'll be available on non-Samsung TVs too, that would be awesome to watch their shows in HDR πŸ‘€
 
πŸ€” I mean, who doesn't love watching their fave shows with better picture quality? But like, 1,000 shows at first? That's kinda slow considering how many new content are getting released on the platform every month πŸ“Ί. And what about all the old content that is still in SD resolution? When can we expect to see those upgraded too? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ It would be awesome if Disney+ could roll out HDR10+ support for more devices, like gaming consoles and mobiles, so it's not just limited to smart TVs and monitors πŸ’». Also, I wonder how much of a difference it makes on lower-end hardware... is it worth the investment? πŸ€”
 
πŸ€” just think about how different things will look on our 4k monitors with this new tech lol 1k shows to start and who knows when more disney content comes online 🎬. so it's cool that samsung is helping out with this but i wish they included some non- tv related devices like gaming consoles or something πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. anyways, i hope the quality is better than my old 1080p monitor πŸ˜…
 
oh great, because what the world really needed was more reasons to upgrade their TV and internet bills πŸ“ΊπŸ’Έ. seriously though, it's cool that Disney+ is jumping on the high dynamic range bandwagon. 1,000 shows from Hulu? nice chunk of content to start with, I guess. and yay for Samsung getting in on the action too, because who doesn't love a good partnership πŸ’Ό. personally, I'm more concerned about when they'll actually roll out HDR10+ support on their own platform, not just limited to Hulu or select smart monitors πŸ€”. still, it's an improvement over the old standard, and I suppose it's better than nothing 😐.
 
omg can't wait for disney+ to get all hdr10+ enabled!!! i mean, who doesnt love a good contrast and brightness boost? samsung's been hyping up their crystal uhd tvs for ages, now its disney+'s turn 🀩. i'm low-key salty that it wont be available on older models tho πŸ™„. like, if you had a decent tv from 2018 or newer, great! but what about all the old folk out there with lower-end sets? they gotta upgrade lol πŸ’Έ. anyway, this is a big deal for disney+ and i'm stoked to see more shows in hdr10+ πŸ“ΊπŸ’»
 
I'm intrigued by this development and what it says about our desire for a more immersive viewing experience πŸ€”. It's almost as if we're trying to recreate the magic of the big screen at home, isn't it? The fact that HDR10+ is being adopted by major streaming platforms like Disney+ and Netflix tells us something about our love for technology and our willingness to invest in it.

But what does it really mean when we say 'better image quality'? Is it just a matter of aesthetics or does it actually change the way we engage with the content? Think about it, do we truly appreciate the nuances of a scene more when it's crisper and brighter? Or are we just satisfying our primal desire for a more realistic representation?

I'm curious to see how this plays out in the long run and what impact it'll have on the way we consume media. Will it lead to a greater appreciation for storytelling or just another level of distraction? πŸ“Ί
 
So they're finally stepping up their game with HDR10+, huh? It's like, imagine watching your fave shows on a TV that's basically painting a masterpiece right before your eyes. The contrast, the brightness, the colors – it all comes together to create an immersive experience that pulls you in and won't let go 🀯.

But here's the thing: this isn't just about the tech itself; it's about what it says about our expectations as consumers. We're always looking for ways to upgrade our lives, whether it's a new TV or a better streaming service. And Disney+ is like, "Hey, we get it! You want more." πŸ’»

So, in a way, this limited initial offering of HDR10+ content can be seen as a reminder that progress is often incremental, not revolutionary. It's the small steps we take towards a goal that ultimately lead us to where we want to be πŸšΆβ€β™‚οΈ.
 
Man, I remember watching movies on those old CRT TVs and thinking it was the best thing ever πŸ™„. Now we're getting all these fancy technologies like HDR10+ and it's crazy how much of a difference it makes! 1,000 shows from Hulu is just the beginning, though - I'd love to see Disney+ bring over some of their classics in this format too.

I've been seeing my friends talk about Samsung Crystal UHD TVs, and now we know why πŸ€”. It's gonna be awesome to watch those Marvel movies on a screen that can actually do them justice. Netflix had the ball first with HDR10+, but I'm glad Disney+ is catching up. We're living in the golden age of streaming, for sure! 😎
 
I don’t usually comment but I think it’s kinda cool that Disney+ is finally joining the HDR10+ party 🀩. I mean, who doesn’t love better picture quality on their screens? It's been a bit of a bummer not having all these fancy features on my TV while watching shows online 😐. And now, with Samsung backing them up, I'm hoping more content will start showing up in the future. 1,000 Hulu shows is a decent starting point, but I'd love to see some Disney+ originals get an HDR10+ upgrade too πŸ“Ί. It's also interesting that Netflix had already jumped on board earlier... maybe it'll be a bit of a standard now? πŸ‘€
 
Can you believe how fast tech is advancing? I mean, just yesterday we were all still adjusting to 4K and now they're pushing HDR10+ into our faces lol πŸ˜‚. Seriously though, it's awesome that Disney+ is joining the party and Samsung is leading the charge. I remember when my grandkids first started watching shows on their tablet, I could barely see what was going on. Now we've got these fancy TVs with all sorts of features like HDR10+. My grandkids are always like "oh cool grandpa, you're so old school". 🀣 Anyway, it's gonna be interesting to see how this impacts the whole streaming industry. Maybe one day they'll even get Netflix to play nice with each other and we won't have to deal with all these different formats 🀞.
 
🀩 OMG, can you even imagine watching your fave Disney shows and movies with this insane image quality? I'm super stoked that they're bringing HDR10+ to the party! πŸ’₯ It's like, what more could we want from our streaming service, right? The fact that Samsung is supporting it and making it available on their newer TVs and smart monitors is just the icing on the cake πŸŽ‚. And hey, even if Netflix had already jumped on board (which they did, btw!), this still feels like a major milestone for Disney+ and other streaming platforms. I mean, who doesn't love a better picture? πŸ“Ί Let's get ready to binge in 4K, fam! πŸ˜„
 
OMG, I'm not sure I'm sold on this HDR10+ hype πŸ€”... I mean, don't get me wrong, it sounds fancy and all that, but is it really worth the extra cash to upgrade my TV just yet? πŸ’Έ I've been streaming my fave shows on Disney+ for ages now and they're still looking pretty sharp, so I'm not feeling the need to rush into this new tech. Plus, isn't it just a bunch of marketing mumbo-jumbo πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ... like, what's really changed here? Is it just a minor tweak or is this some game-changing upgrade I should be super excited about? πŸ€”
 
I'm so stoked that Disney+ is finally jumping on the high dynamic range bandwagon πŸŽ‰! It's about time we get to experience their content in a whole new way. I mean, who doesn't want to see a clearer picture of Elsa's icy powers in Frozen or the finer details of Star Wars? The thing that really gets me excited is how this is just the beginning – I'm sure they'll have an entire library of HDR10+ shows in no time πŸ€”.

But let's be real, it's Samsung who's been doing all the heavy lifting here. They're basically the HDR whisperer πŸ‘€. And I love that Disney+ is starting with their older TVs and smart monitors – that way everyone can get a taste of this improved picture quality πŸ“Ί.

One thing I'm curious about is how Netflix is handling this whole HDR10+ thing... they said something about it being on par with Dolby Vision? Eh, I trust them 😊. What do you guys think? Are we in for a treat with Disney+'s new HDR10+ offerings?
 
man i'm telling you, they're trying to control our eyes lol they're pushing high dynamic range on everyone's screens now 🀯 and it's not just about the better picture quality, think about it... once we start seeing this advanced tech everywhere, who's gonna be left behind? the older tvs, the lower-end monitors... they'll be stuck in the dark ages, literally. and have you noticed how samsung is right at the center of all this? like, what's their angle, man? πŸ€‘
