Disney+ Gains HDR10+ Support with Over 1,000 Hulu Titles

Disney+ has officially begun streaming its content in the HDR10+ format, significantly enhancing the viewing experience. Currently, the HDR10+ support includes select titles from Hulu, the streaming platform acquired by The Walt Disney Company in June.

HDR10+ Support for Over 1,000 Hulu Titles

According to an announcement from Samsung, over 1,000 titles from Hulu are now available in HDR10+. This expansion marks a notable upgrade, as Disney+ previously provided support only for HDR10 and Dolby Vision HDR formats.

Supported Devices

Samsung TVs are the first to support streaming HDR10+ content from Disney+. The following devices are included:

  • Samsung Crystal UHD TVs (2018 and later)
  • Samsung OLED TVs
  • The Frame TVs
  • QLED TVs
  • Micro RGB TVs

Integration with Apple TV

The Disney+ app on Apple’s tvOS also now supports HDR10+, as noted by FlatpanelsHD. This integration allows Apple TV users to enjoy enhanced content quality.

Hulu’s HDR Offerings

Hulu first introduced HDR support in 2021, offering titles in HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision. With the acquisition by Disney and the creation of a unified app experience, the addition of HDR10+ capabilities to Disney+ is a strategic move to broaden its content appeal.

Focus on Samsung TV Users

This announcement particularly benefits users of Samsung TVs, which do not support Dolby Vision. By incorporating HDR10+, Disney+ seeks to attract home theater enthusiasts and solidify its standing among the world’s top-selling TV brand.

As Disney+ expands its HDR10+ offerings and continues to enhance its app features, subscribers can look forward to an ever-increasing library of high-quality content.
