Hi,
I use Digital Cable at home. In my case no matter what I want to watch be it news, sports, music, info-entertainment I only like to watch in High Definition. If a channel is offered in SD it simply doesn't exist for me. Sounds crazy right ?

Anyone shares my habit ?
 
Watching movies in 4k even when the maximum resolution screen at home is 2k

lol which standard HD TVs available under 50K can play and downsample the 4k correctly?(are yopou on HTPC)

Do you have a multi-TB NAS?

I don't go for 4k even for archiving pupose if it's a recent movie with lots of SciFi effects like avengers because they are fake upscaled 4K

These movies are shot with 2K DI(Digital Intermediate) for cost-saving in post-productions

For older/non-scifi/heavy CGI effect, movies I do check if true 4K transfer is available and best possible regional transfer.

As most of the older movies(especially classics/hit bug budgets) are made on 35/70 mm films , they can be transferred upto 6K .

Also if you are true fanatic buy films for theatre purpose and $3000 projector, even blu-ray 4Ks are compressed.

Also don't just fall for resolution, it might be bit-starved, at worst your video bits rates must be 20 mbps, good qualities are 30+ mbps and best are as I said projector films :P
 
The non HD channels on these new types of LCD and led TVs looks very bad .That's why we prefer hd channels . Non hd channels looks good only on the legacy crt TVs.
I love Panasonic plasma n Tata Sky(hdmi) for this. Even non hd channels look charm on this deadly combo.
While my LG led even after being smaller in size is hopeless with same tata sky.
I ll miss my plasma as its already showing sign of retirement with black vertical lines showing up.
Why they stopped plasma production.
 
OLEDs are the future for display material i believe, by passing times they become more cost efficient. No way the lcd's and led's can match the picture quality of oled's...
 
I heard something about OLEDs not being bright enough. Is that true? Like is it low enough to actually hurt visibility in a well lit room?
