Hey guys, hoping someone can point me in the direction of a setting I'm missing here.
My Sony Bravia supported the iPlayer 4K streams, I know this because I watched the Blue Planet / Earth thing that was on there, and it was defintely on this TV as I don't have another 4K TV in the house!
Since factory resettings the TV (for other reasons), the app will now longer register as "compatible" so the world cup streams don't show a UHD option sadface .
I had a similar issue where the Amazon prime app wouldn't detect my TV was 4K / HDR compatible, until I set the picture setting to "Standard", however this hasn't worked with iplayer.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
The iPlayer app on your TV could stream on-demand shows in 4k (I.e. blue planet). The new version, limited to certain TVs, allows it to steam the live 4k broadcast.
