Disney+ Loses Google Cast Support Amid Patent Dispute

Disney+ is facing another patent dispute that's causing issues for users in some countries. The streaming service has lost support for Google Cast functionality due to an injunction against Disney+ in Germany and The Netherlands. This comes after a previous patent battle with InterDigital, which resulted in the loss of 4K HDR playback in Dolby Vision and 3D content in certain regions.

The latest impact is on users who are trying to cast their favorite shows or movies to their TVs using Google Cast. A notice has appeared for some users when they try to do so, stating that 'streaming via Chromecast is not available in your country of origin.'
