4K/UHD TVs have been around for a while now but it's ever evolving. Several broadcasters are planning to bring out 4k services & Sky UK has launched a UHD/4k service already albeit restricted to it's early up-takers of it's new Sky Q service[ the verdict's still out on that too], however, after the original launch using the start of the English Premier League to launch it's 4k service & using very high 40Mb/s bit rates indeed... we doubt they will keep to that high rate & either reduce it on lessor tv channels and reduce it on their 145 out of 380 total Premier League games over time. Already several customers have commented that they are dissapointed with Sky UHD / 4k but it's early days - it may get worse after their gaff on inadvertantly admitting Sky HD had only been upscalled from older 1080 x 1440 video gear & upscalled to 1920 until they found the new 4k av gear could also allow higher compressed 1080 x 1920 so anounced a picture quality increase from 1.5million pixels to 2million pixels not realising that some of us have worked in the industry & would know instantly wjat theyu were really saying - if it had been the BBC or ITV it would have been far more acceptable as these are free channels, not an expensive pay tv service like Sky... but then it als turned out that the BBC was using the better 1080 x 1920 mastering editing quality. [sky using 1080 x 1440 meant they could also save up to 25% on carraige fees too- not just the savings on using the older gear & the lowering of bit rates in general we've seen]
The best 4k/ UHD is the good old broadcast feeds - some nearing 100Mb/s - but you need some decent studio av kit to get the best [& a motorised satellite system of course].
Here's some of the areas we are going to be covering as this thing unfolds [it's still early days but we don't think it's going to be another 3D type slop - it's just more dots & we've all already gone thoygh that with other gear - PCs/ Smart Phones, I Pads etc..
