Ghost_MH Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 https://www.businessinsider.com/disney-plus-not-working-vizio-smart-tvs-chromecast-2019-11 Awesome. Seems like it would work fine over Airplay, but Airplay is just a mirror here and we're an Android household. I guess I could hijack my kid's iPad, but I'd rather not.

More specifically, I have the P65-F1. Disney+ says my Chromecast device isn't supported. I'm not talking about not supported for 4K HDR. Not supported for any playback. I just ran a firmware update to see if that would make any difference, but nada. It works on my Nest Hub for whatever good that does me here. I'm hoping it's just Vizio being behind on updates or Disney+ being a separate app that just has yet to launch. Same here. What the fuck. @Ghost_MH@TwinIon https://www.businessinsider.com/disney-plus-not-working-vizio-smart-tvs-chromecast-2019-11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the 20th Century/Lucasfilm fanfare plays in mono/stereo at the beginning, then the STAR WARS soundtrack hits you in full ATMOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a question, If you signed up for the Disney+ Founders Deal can you also take advantage of the Hulu/Espn Bundle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was shocked I was able to use it with almost no issues, but I wasn't shocked when I saw tons of people reporting problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I logged in first on my phone, then just had to have the app open on my phone and the TV app auto-logged in. Kinda nifty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStar189 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I saw headlines saying "Disney underestimated demand", but really, how could they not expect it. Wonder how long it will take to smooth things out. I was thinking of it like a video game launch but its probably a lot worse. Just one household might download and use the app on multiple tvs/devices at once. I got the app set up one 3 tvs today which probably isn't even close to other people. Thats a lot of logging in.

Kinda nifty I'll echo this. Just installed on my Xbox and it gave me a message that if I'm logged in on the same network on another device that I can login that way. Opened up the app on my Galaxy SO and it logged in on the Xbox instantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured the only reason they'd launch on a Tuesday of all days is because they maybe thought there'd be less people logging in in the middle of a work week.

Joe Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Vizio really needs to correct this garbage, but luckily I was able to get Disney+ on my PS4. In the process though, I found out Sony deletes inactive PSN accounts. Boo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emblazon Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 The Lady and the Tramp live action was actually really good. It’s one of two of the remakes that I’ve enjoyed. The Siamese scene changed, and the beaver sale is gone, but the Italian dinner scene is SO much better/more impactful in live action for some reason. There’s also a ridiculous amount of inclusion in the movie, and I loved it, and it doesn’t take anything away from the original. I’m actually quite surprised there hasn’t been Kaepernick-level uproar from MAGAs about it, yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinIon Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 @Ghost_MH@Jose Well that sucks. I also use a Tivo for some streaming, but it doesn't do 4K HDR through everything that supports it. I've had other weird issues in the past, so I was going to get either a Chromecast Ultra, Shield, or Apple TV for streaming. I guess there's no time like the present.

The worst of all worlds There are now a bunch of examples floating around showing how the cropping breaks a lot of visual gags in the show!

I don't think there is, which is a real problem. It also doesn't seem to keep track of what episode you were on in a series. We started on Simpsons S02E06 or something, and each time we go to watch Simpsons again it starts us back on S01E01, no matter which device.
