Fox @ 4k HDR

Same here. It triggers my Apple TV 4K to 4K HDR10 mode, but it just displays that static FS1 College Hoops screen.

Edit: Same on my Nvidia Shield Pro.

It is on now.

pretty awesome

I'm pretty sure this is a problem with Fox. The Fox app had the wrong game. Then it went to a similar screen for a while. It eventually corrected.

I’m getting tons of error running job closing connection error’s trying to record it. Anyone else?

This looks soooo good

Is there something we need to enable to get this to work, other than installing the latest pre-release? I'm already using YTTV for TVE.

Nothing to do. However only certain games are in 4K and on fs1. Most programs are only 720

Thank you. I'll have to look to see when the next games will be broadcast in 4K.

Next game in 4K is Georgetown @ Xavier FS1 tomorrow 1:00 est.

Perfect! Thank you for that info!

How do you find out which games are in 4K on FS1?

Through the Fox Sports app. The 4k events are tagged as UHD or UHD HDR.

Perhaps this has already been discussed, but I set up a recording for the game on FS1 last night. When I checked, it was being recorded in 720 vs 4k. I stopped the recording and tuned to the channel and it was being broadcast in 4k. I started recording at that point and the recording was in 4k. Has anyone else had a similar experience.

Did you add pre-padding to start the recording before the game started?
What did you use to determine it was being recorded in 720p?
Maybe the stream started in 720p and switched to 4k when the game started.

I didn't try to record it. But as I was watching a little today, I thought the same thing. If you did any padding or if the channel at the time hasn't switched to the 4k prior to the recording. You would get stuck with the lower resolution. I just don't see it re-evaluating once it has tuned to the channel and or while it is already recording.

I have a 10 second default padding. I used the stats on tbe channel and the details of the recording on the PC.

Yep my entire recording is in 720. No padding either side. It has done that on all the games so far I’ve tried to record. This is the first one I didn’t stop delete and restart the recording.

I guess the padding in this case should be... start 4 or 5 minutes late to get the highest quality possible :wink:
