Euros on TV in 4k

[Duranman]

Where is the uhd channel option?

 

[Banbridge_Bear]

Might be better when the actual game is on but doesn’t look to special at the moment!

Yea you should notice the difference once the game starts.

 

[Banbridge_Bear]

Where is the uhd channel option?

On Iplayer only

 

[Duranman]

On Iplayer only

I'm on iplayer on my shield and I don't see a uhd option

 

[Banbridge_Bear]

I'm on iplayer on my shield and I don't see a uhd option

Not sure if it works on that, I'm using the app on my TV and it gave me an option to watch in HD or UHD

Doesn’t work on the shield

 

[Cardendenger]

First time trying 4k on the tele as usually use IPTV and not that impressed looks quite dark

 

[student_loyal]

Doesn’t look 4K to me.

How do you know if it’s 4K?

Got a 4K TV and watching on FireStick. Setting on best quality.

It says bbc uhd at the top right corner

 

[student_loyal]

Anyone finding it too dark might need to change their tv HDR settings

 

[Bedfordshire Bear]

Where is the uhd channel option?

Open iplayer - go to home page- It should say Live UHD Euro 2020 Turkey v Italy (if your TV is compatible) - once you have selected, you will be given 3 options - Live in UHD, Start in HD, Live in HD.

Ffs that'll be that then

 

[amabluestar]

Ach, I'll just watch it on the telly then.

Yes, thought the same but soon got used to it ( in other words can't be arsed pissing about with settings).

Does your try have iPlayer built in? That is the best option.

 

[ForzaLaudrup]

It is so dark!

never had that problem with any 4K content before?

It’s night time in Rome

Where is the uhd channel option?

Click on the match it gives you 3 options
UHD
HD
SD

Stupid post here but you need a 4K TV, just tried talking someone through it who doesnt have one in the end

 

[Gazzabear v2.0]

Just put it on, not dark on mine at all, UHD fireworks and a mad bint attached to balloon footballs... John Logie Baird will be turning in his grave

Also need a decent 4K TV, the cheaper models don't cut it.

Read my earlier post about BBCs HDR its different to others HDR+

 

[DavieM]

Won't work on a pc or unsupported device. Picture is superb but less impressed with the HDR so might need to adjust it a bit.

 

[Mackania]

Picture isn't looking too sharp on my Samsung QLED thing.

 

[TerrySilverLoyal]

My picture has a weird feel to it

 

[fmp]

BBC stream is 1 minute 40 delayed for me

 

[student_loyal]

35 seconds delay for me so absolutely fine.

players stand out a lot more with the higher definition

 

[Lord Summerisle]

Open iplayer - go to home page- It should say Live UHD Euro 2020 Turkey v Italy (if your TV is compatible) - once you have selected, you will be given 3 options - Live in UHD, Start in HD, Live in HD.

I don’t see UHD anywhere.

Only gives me the option of watch from start or live.

TV is definitely 4K and app settings is best quality.

App up to date?

What is the app on. Direct on tv, fire stick etc?

 

[DavieM]

I have had to bin the UHD as it goes into HDR mode and it's showing up too many flaws in my sh!te Hinsense TV - far too many vertical stripes killing it. BBC 1 stream is quite a bit behind but the iplayer stream seems fine.

 

[Banbridge_Bear]

Changed picture mode on my tv to vivid and it's really brightened it up.

Here’s the supported device list.

[insanicdrunk]

Cant get it on website iplayer. That stream is like a dodgy stream, normally it is fine.

Wish I'd realised this last season watching RTV and finding it pretty dark at times!

Website iPlayer isn’t supported

Yeah, but its not even a decent stream.

Watching on a PS4 Pro on a 4K TV and can't get the UHD option to show up?

Not supported on PS4 I don’t think

Firestick.

Did a quick test, and get 4K HDR etc OK on likes of Disney and YouTube.

Bbc is different - they use a different format.

Sounds like it’s not supported - the app via the tv is best supported.

From the link above only the fire cube is supported.

 

[theryesider]

Tried it there on Apple 4K tv didn’t work very grey picture.
Will wait till half time and try it on my tv iPlayer app.

Link was posted above for supported devices and tv, didn't see Apple tv on it.

BBC iPlayer app on Sky Q doesn’t do UHD but the app for Samsung works and gives you the option.

However why is it so dark? Even in Dynamic mode on Samsung TV it’s ridiculously dark.

Back to HD for me.

Yup. I've tried my Firestick 4k, won't work. Virgin V6 box iPlayer app, won't work. iPlayer app built in to my supposed LG 4K TV, won't work. Binned it and just stuck to BBC one HD for tonight. Might go out and buy a new TV tomorrow Looked at the fire cube as well but that's £100 and I'm not paying that just now, especially when there's a prime day coming up soon and it'll get reduced in price.

Fuk Bbc. Vpn and Dutch tv for a decent stream.

 

[CrocodileDundee]

Looks good on my LG c9 oled.

 

[bobba]

after 16 months of copland rear withdrawal syndrome, i'm having good fun watching the tactical view

 

[Jonnyleblue]

I get 4k through iplayer app on my TV. No option for uhd on iplayer via my virgin box

Direct through tv seems to be the most common successful option.

 

[TheRoofeIsOnFire]

I ended up just putting sky back on as it wasn’t up too much and was very dark.
