People are just realizing they’re watching Disney movies wrong – check your streaming app for ‘TV ruining’ mistake
IF you have ever struggled with a dark TV monitor while watching Disney+, then this quick trick may help.
Television technology has advanced an incredible amount in recent years.
This includes the development of HDR (high dynamic range) and OLED (organic light-emitting diode) viewing experiences.
However, because there are so many options out there, not all streaming apps seamlessly integrate with every TV.
Disney Plus users, for example, have been sharing on social media that their content turns darker when they have HDR running.
"Dolby Vision HDR on Disney Plus seems to be pretty bad at the moment," one person said on Twitter.
"I’m not sure why Disney Plus has an HDR problem," another user asked.
This flaw causes certain films and movies with night scenes to become nearly impossible to watch.
Thankfully, there is a way to fix this so you can get back to enjoying your Disney+ shows.
