DisneyPlus app streams in blue/green

I have the 4k box.  DisneyPlus 4k/HD streaming is suddenly being broadcast in blue/green tones.   It used to be fine.  I changed nothing.   Because of the colors I have tried rebooting the xfinity box, doing a refresh from the service menus, rebooting my Samsung S90C 4k tv, installing the latest software on my TV.   Nothing fixes the problem. 

The disneyplus app on the TV itself does not have the color problem but I don't use it much because my wifi isn't very good where the TV is located.   Usually just use the xfinity apps.

Anyone else have this problem.  Any solutions?   I cant see any way to uninstall/reinstall apps on the xfinity box...

Hello user_bes90b are you also on a 4K HD streaming cable box? Can we try performing a system refresh by saying "Account Refresh" into the X1 remote, and following the prompts?

Hey there, user_aew8ep, thanks for reaching out through Xfinity Forums regarding the issue with the Disney+ app. My nieces love watching Frozen especially around this time of year, so I know how important it is to have the app working. I would be frustrated if I were having this issue too!

 

There is a known issue with the app, and we are working to get this resolved as soon as possible. We do not have a specific date on when this will be resolved. We appreciate your patience while our engineering team works on this!

Glad it's not just me.  I downgraded the quality to HD from 4k and that workaround is working for now.  But I really want the 4k streaming back.

Same here and changing to moderate from automatic fixed the color. Quality is downgraded though and I know we all aren’t paying what we pay each month for lower quality…. Give me a reason to leave xfinity, been thinking about it for a while!!

I had the same problem. The only solution was to go into Disney+ App Settings and lower the Video Quality to Medium. This fixed the color. Unsure why this suddenly occurred because I have a 4K TV, box, and cables.

Same issue here. Does Xfinity monitor these forums and actually make fixes to problems?

I would sure hope so… for the asinine amount of money they charge for cable, there is zero chance I’ll be streaming in anything other than 4K.

Fix this issue, Xfinity, or bye-bye.

Same issue. I was able to stream Disney+ content without any problems; today colors on all Disney+ streaming content is hosed. It's not the box or TV; content on other channels and apps works just fine. Not happy with the suggestion to downgrade resolution, I'm paying for 4k and it has always worked fine until today.

All yesterday I couldn't play movies for my son at all   If I tried to play 20 movies only one or two of them would play. You would hit play it would go to a black screen you would get the rotating Circle and then it would just be black no sound no video. Now this morning I am seeing the exact same thing as you it's got some sort of green tint. All of our tablets play Disney plus perfectly and so does our TVs. Definitely an issue that the app is having inside the Xfinity box.

Good afternoon user_mp4vqa thank you so much for taking the time to relay your recent experience with the Disney+ on X1 App. We are aware of this issue, and working to resolve this with a quick update patch soon. In the meantime, you can change the App settings from "Automatic-4K" to "Moderate" and this should alleviate the green tint.

I’m having the exact same problem. I thought for a second it was just something for the last episode of Agnes but when I checked it was effecting the previous episode as well the app itself and everything else works fine. Just the playback/streaming is like a busted tv in the 90’s.

@roderickanda​ if your tv has a Disney+ app built in, use that one instead. You'll have to log in again etc.

At least, until Xfinity fixes theirs. Works for me in 4k so I know it's Xfinitys issue

roderickanda - This isn't the experience we want for anyone and we appricate the chance to help out. Is this issue isolated to your TV? How are you opening the app?

Just happened to me too. Only Disney+, all other 4k content plays fine. Also, trailers for movies play perfectly fine, but the movies themselves don't play in the right colors. 

Also, for my TV, if I use the native built in Disney+ instead of the one built into the Xfinity box, everything works fine again. Fix this Xfinity!!!

Same exact issue with us and it just started a few days ago.  Doesn't work in our main box but works in the little satellite box in our bedroom.  Only way to get all the colors It just switch down to a lower resolution/bit rate.  I'm pretty sure that Xfinity is aware of this but as usual they're all playing stupid.
