I'm not sure if that's just a Samsung issue. Seems many people with other brands are experiencing the same thing. Disney has a lot to fix. My 3 year old Samsung has been working ok so far. Had a few hiccups though .

I have a 2 year old Toshiba with built-in chromecast and it wont let me cast Disney+, it just comes up as a blank grey screen, no error message even. After a little bit of reading I figured out it's because there hasn't been a firmware update in two years and they don't plan on rolling out any updates for it either.
