The answer to "Pixelation in Dark Scenes " question – watermarking of the content and impossible to remove.
My cable provider provided the Super Bowl on Fox as well as the there 4K channel, which was amazing to watch at 4 k
I that match content also dropped the resolution. Apple TV if you enable match content it should match Frameway SDRHDR and resolution to the original content.
The only thing with the Apple TV app is you can’t rent movies from the store or buy them it has to be done on your phone first and then will show up afterwards I have a Bravia 8 and just signed into alll the apps on the tv vs being on Apple TV paid all this money for the tv upscaler might as well use it
I notice a big upgrade in upscaling when I set the resolution in Apple TV to 1080p for content I know is in that resolution. On my Bravia 9.
Dark scenes have completely justified my 4K blu ray player. Watching a dark movie on streaming vs. a 4k disc is as big of a difference as moving from DVD to blu ray.
I feel a combination of my tv and thr nividia shield pro work flawlessly together
I'm so glad 3d TVs are dying and no longer on the market. Talk about a marketing gimmick that so many were fooled into…wow.
And how about a real meaningful comparison, say Apple TV vs nVidia Shield ? 🤬
