No. What matters is the output hdmi cable from receiver to tv and source signal. Basically, you need to upgrade DTV service and equipment for 4k signal unless streaming. Also make sure you are using hdmi port 2 or 3 and enable 4k on those inputs through settings. Lastly, run directly from receiver to tv, not a hub or xbox as this will compromise image quality.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have nothing more than a digital antenna on my roof...and I get stunning 4k/8k UHD programming from YouTube.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Well I haven't received my TV yet, but it is my understanding that no service provider broadcasts in UHD yet. They might each have one channel or a small library of on demand content in UHD, but that is about it. An updrade would likely be needed to have access to the very limited amount of UHD content.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. Make sure you use hdmi 2 or 3 though for upscale. Stations that are not UHD will be upscalled for better picture. They are still in HD format just upscale.
