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...

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!!!

Had this issue too. Switching to ‘Moderate’ in the Disney+ settings fixed it.

Thanks, but that would take me out of 4k, right? Thats a nice workaround, but I want to keep 4k. 

If I just use the Disney+ app built in the TV, instead of using Xfinitys Disney+ app everything works fine. For now I'll just use the TVs app, but Xfinity needs to fix this.

I just talked to a live chat agent - took about 10 minutes of following chatbot recommendations to reboot the cable box and tv and play with cables before it allowed me to talk to an agent.   The good news is the agent says that this is a known issue:

CR Ticket #[Edited: "Personal Information"]
It is supposed to be resolved by November 21'st...

Hopefully its fixed soon....

I'm having the issue, and today is the 21st. I'm currently doing a system refresh to see if it fixes the problem.

@XfinityAngie​ Having the same issue, also happened with the Netflix app through the xfinity XG1 4k box, had to go to the settings on it as well, turned off hdr content, and it fixed the color. As others have stated, trailers, and still screens show up with normal color, but the actual streaming content color is off.

I understand that Xfinity support has a ticket  on the issue and is allegedly working on a fix. If anyone sees the issue resolved please post.

Thx

Same issue here. Kind of a shame with the amount of money we're being charged monthly that I can't enjoy what I'm paying hard earned money for.

Same thing for me. Works fine with the s90c built in app, but not the x1 app. Apps like prime still work and when content is hdr10 the tv momentarily displays this on the bottom right. Disney app used to trip the same notice, but since the colors issue started the notice has not displayed. I figured there was some sort of encoding issue between the app and how it’s telling the tv to respond since the tv no longer seems to detect that it is getting hdr10. Hopefully the engineering estimate of Nov 21 is accurate.

as many have said I’ve done every troubleshooting step that Xfinity has wanted me to do, and the only thing that fixed it was to change my graphic settings in the Disney app with the small gear icon to moderate instead of the 4K and to be honest, I can’t tell the difference at all, and it fixed the problem perfectly. I as others have said had no problems on my secondary boxes only the main box. The setting is switched. It works perfectly. Good luck everyone

@DHSFed​ I appreciate the opinion, I tried lowering & the resolution drop was quite noticeable on my large TV. Using the TVs built in Disney+ app works fine, so that workaround is okay for now. 

Fix this now Xfinity!

I have the same problem but only with Disney +. All other 4K programming works fine.

Thank you for reaching out to us @user_6b9mv8! There is a known issue causing some content on the Disney Plus App on some of our boxes to have a green tint. Thankfully, our amazing engineers are aware of this issue and actively working to resolve this as soon as possible.

I have a new 4k projector and 130" screen and had to set to moderate with an extreme drop in resolution from 4k. When app is in 4k, the signal is sdr but in moderate it returns to hdr10.

Same issue here, waiting for Disney+ to fix it on their end through 4K HDR. To temporarily fix you’ll have to just watch it in HD 1080. Go to you settings in Disney+ and go to the data option and switch it to moderate. This will fix your picture. It won’t be 4K but it will be HD, doesn’t bother me much, we mostly watch animation in our house..

According to a post easier this week  Xfinity acknowledged the problem and said fix would be completed today. So far nothing has changed.
