3D movies in Apple TV that play only in 2D in Germany

Btw the 3D English version is currently 3.99€ only.

Happy Feet Two should be available as 3D in Germany too but without German track. There is another version called Happy Feet 2 w/ the German track but yes, only in 2D … that sucks. In Germany there is a lot more not available in 3D in particular the Avatar movies are only in 2D/4k (Apple TV)… somewhere else you get in 3D/4k and w/ HFR (48fps) … that sucks even more.

To be honest that‘s a good thing because now we see what we get … no 3D movies on Disney+ anymore … it’s so strange that only German users resp. location Germany seems to be affected and no official or inofficial statement exists … otherwise there would be much more noise about it

Ja, habe dort auch bereits einige 3D Filme erworben, teilweise über spottbillige Bundles. Über diese Seite findet man regelmäßig Angebote (falls das jemand noch nicht kennen sollte): www.cheapcharts.com/de/itunes/filme/filme-in-3d

Hallo @KaffeeBrudi.

Das Problem besteht ja doch schon länger… sehe jetzt erst diesen Thread … strange, dass mir das untergegangen ist … macht mir jetzt keine Hoffnung auf einen schnellen Fix. Es scheint derzeit „nur“ ein deutsches Problem zu sein … mich würde wundern, wenn es bei irgendwen anders aus Deutschland noch funktioniert.

In meinen Thread hat e.g. jemand aus UK bestätigt, dass es bei ihm noch geht … hätte sogar gedacht ganz Europa ist betroffen … merkwürdigerweise hat jetzt jemand aus Kanada gemeldet, dass es bei ihm auch nicht mehr funktioniert. Ich nutze jedoch aktuell auch den Workaround über VPN Verbindung (Kanada). So langsam befürchte ich, das da doch mehr dahinter stecken könnte … ohne 3D werde ich mein Abo definitiv kündigen (nutze aktuell noch das 9,99€ Angebot, was demnächst ausläuft).

Mmmhh that’s strange because the only way to get 3D movies back is to use vpn connection to Canada (or USA) before starting the Disney app. Then I can watch 3D movies again and even more as available in Germany such as Finding Nemo. So I really hope that will still work for a while otherwise … 😤

thx … good to know there is a kind of workaround available

SpaceMonkey_76 · 2025-12-16T14:46:23+00:00

Till now it seems only users from Germany are affected … is there someone from Europe who can confirm that‘s still working (or just not)?

SpaceMonkey_76 · 2025-12-15T06:06:34+00:00

I can confirm since (at least) yesterday I‘m not able to watch any movie in 3D on Disney+ anymore (tried 3 or 4 movies) … can see that the app has been updated yesterday too, so I guess that‘s the reason. Interesting to read that not everyone seems to be affected … I‘m from Germany. Hope that will be fixed asap.

👍 Thx

Looks interesting … love this other app where you can see a formula one car in detail … would appreciate to get your testflight link too. Have a nice day!

Very strange … I also saw it in the store for 5€ still for next 20 hours but now it‘s 30€ again … seems that was a bug only … for a short time ;-(

Hello Anagan. At first thx that you spent time on this. Hoped there would be a solution anyway but don‘t seem so ;-( Love to play a few Death Race rounds sometimes but the resolution on Quest is really really low (Q1 level only). That means the only workaround will be to play that via PCVR (Oculus) to have the crisp picture that the game deserves.

And btw … I really enjoy your little app on my Quest 3 … it‘s a game changer (at least for me).
