Re: UHD on Virgin Media
Having managed to get it enabled via customer services (with some perseverance) and paying the £6.00. I have to say I am totally underwhelmed, the picture quality is very poor via my V6 box. I watched a couple of films which I have seen before and I don’t think it’s worth the £6.00.
After some tinkering things improved but a couple of points: bit rate is poor and I’m not sure if it’s even proper 2160p. There doesn’t appear to be any HDR on offer, I didn’t check the amp but certainly didn’t sound like broadcast atmos.
Any app through my Philips OLED is vastly superior. Netflix with Dolby vision is massively better, BBC I played is better, even Amazon prime with HDR10+ is better and UHD Blu-rays make the gap in picture quality laughable.
Will give it month mainly for the justice league Snyder cut next week but will likely cancel.
