Seems the solution is to use the US version of the app and change your geo location to Australia so you can get the star content.

So the Star content, is available in Australia, but not in the UK, I assume.

I think it is available in both Australia and the UK.

I alway change to Australia, so I know they have it. I don't have a sub at the moment, so I can't check the UK at the moment.

I ask, because my LIT box is "domiciled" in the UK. Mainly for iPlayer/BBC

It is available in the UK and it's pretty decent. I used a US account while I was there (UK) but I doubt a SA will work.

No SA will not work, you will have to change your location.

Where do you exit in Australia?

Melbourne, Sydney, Darwin?

Ah I meant does Disney offer 4k service, I thought not. Don't think its strictly a app issue.
O I see. As I understand, they do 4k, only certain apps ( Apple TV etc). Xbox app suppose to allow 4k, but there is no Xbox App.

Yeah, I suppose it depends on the app. On my Samsung Q80T, I get 4K no issues.

I haven’t really experienced any of the issues listed here on my side.

I was offered 3 months free via DStv, things got messed up and I never got that right. Then DStv tried to bill me for Disney+ so I threw it all out.

What I did manage to use for a while showed me it's got too limited content, so not sure why it would be compared to Netflix US.

Nice to know, subscription to IPVanish expires in a few months
If more for occasional use try the free version of Windscribe first, 10GB/pm and I find fast enough. Dallas Ranch setting is the current favourite.
