Thanks, I tried that but it didn't help. Then I tried removing my Denon receiver from the HDMI chain and that fixed it.  I don't know why the Denon is affecting only Disney Plus when it comes to HDR/SDR switching, but I'll play with settings on the Denon to see if I can alleviate the problem.

    Thanks for keeping in touch, Adam8!

    We're glad you're back on track. Since we have isolated the issue coming from the receiver, we would suggest reaching out directly to their support team for further troubleshooting. 

    There may be specific settings preventing the resolution from switching. Thus, you might need to seek assistance from them to determine the problem. 

    Please let us know if you have other concerns so we can help you further. 

    Best,
    Emman
