Has anyone found a solution to this horrible feature?

It doesn't seem it can be turned off. 

Watching HDR movies **bleep** on my S24ultra.

Support doesn't seem to acknowledge the issue.

Seriously samsung? Am i expected to watch movies out in the sun to get a good experience? Unbelievable

You can turn it off through the studio settings.

You should've specified mention which app you are using

 you can disable  Super HDR through  Gallary settings and video brightness through  Settings  - advanced features  - set normal instead of bright

The issue is not specific to an app. Any HDR content has this problem.

Disabling super HDR only affects the gallery app itself not other apps and especially not Netflix..

The issue that the phone changes the brightness of any hdr content based on environment. That makes any HDR videos look awful if the lightning in the room is dim and makes any dark scenes hard to see or outright black

Hello, welcome to Samsung community, we  would suggest checking that you have enabled "normal" brightness under Settings>Advanced features>Video brightness

Yes, same issue.
The issue is that the phone tries to adjust the brightness based on my lighting environment even in HDR movies. It doesnt stop at a set brightness and the brightness it chooses is too low. So if im watching with my lights off it just lowers the brightness to an unacceptable level.

I have other phones from other brands and none behave this way.
