Atmos via Disney+ and Catch-Up apps on XR-55A90J

Can somebody at Sony please confirm when we will have access to the UK catch-up TV services?

 

I want a date, not some wishy washy answer.

 

And what is going on with the Disney+ app and the lack of Atmos?

 

I'm getting sick of the blame game having contacted Disney, Sony and Google.

 

I assumed Disney, being the vendor of the app, would be responsible and have an explanation but, they insist it is down to Sony's hardware limitations, which seems unlikely given Netflix will do Atmos. And Google are clueless.

 

If I don't get answers, this damn TV is going back. Utterly fed up with the poor support, generic responses, the total reliance on reality creation to ensure the picture looks good and the lack of basic features on a premium priced TV.

 

It is outrageous.

 

Are Sony represented on this forum and respond or is it community based and supported by owners please?

You should still plan to watch the singing of Auld Lang Syne live, though, just in case 😛


My favourite bedtime reading is a Sony product manual…

Hi guys, the issue was present with the the W800 series, and Sony resolved it in June I believe, as far as I know it's not an issue with just Sony, and since they were able to resolve it already with one series I don't see a reason not to believe them already. I agree that this should've been advertised from the beginning tho.

So…I think Sony have done it! And by year end although only just! I can see I have iPlayer on my TV suddenly as of today. I haven’t checked ITV Player or All4 yet but I assume they are there too

Just checked my A90j and any updates and checked Google,  nothing found yet.

 

Some other threads on here suggest it will ready for the 21st.

 

So lets hope!

It’s definitely there, and Itvplayer, my5 and all4. Just do a software upgrade and they should be there in your apps list. They’re all there in mine now. Thank god they’ve sorted this out finally
