FiOS has the World Series games in 4k/HDR and it's fucking fantastic. I keep switching back and forth between the regular and 4k channels and I can't believe how different it looks. When the f is this coming to all live programming? What the hell is the holdup? Y'all have 4k cameras at this point. I'll pay the inevitable fee. My cable box handles it, and I've had the thing for a year and a half.

At the very least give me regular season and playoff sports in 4k/HDR, not just the championships

It's not true 4K. It's upscaled from 1080p but it should benefit from the higher bit rate and stuff.

I'm pretty surprised it's not native, tbh. It looks really good, and I'm a 4k blu ray collector who has a good amount of both native and upscaled discs.

But the HDR is the real star here. Compared to the 4k channel, the regular channel looks absolutely washed out.

probably never going to be mainstream. Still waiting for hbo max to do it

Fox OTA is 720p. If the 4k broadcast is native 1080p, then it's still an improvement.

I think we'll get there relatively soon. There's money to be made and 4k tvs have been the standard for a while

The only thing I’ve watch OTA in 4K was the olympics a couple years ago and it looked great compared to the regular channels also. It’s going to be a long time before we see it widely adopted in regular tv and sporting events unfortunately.
