SHVC Streaming

Hi All,

Just bought an LG 75 Super UHD TV SK8001PVR.

It will decode SHVC, my question is, will this

work with the Now TV Box.

My second Question is,

This Lg has 4 HDRs and the one I need an

answer to is about the Advanced HDR by Technicolor

Techniclor States.

Uninterrupted HDR.

Technicolor HDR technology

automatically upgrades all non-HDR

content for HDR all the time, on all

devices

That's the question, will my LG upgrade

my Now box 720p streaming to HDR.

 

Thanks BF

@Anonymous User The box will work on your LG TV, although if you're asking if it will play content encoded in SVHD I'm not sure but would imagine not, although I don't think any of the apps on the box use it. 

With regards the HDR modes if you have a mode that upgrades non-HDR content to HDR then it should work with the box, but any pseudo-HDR mode will involve the TV making a best guess as to what the originally intended image would be, so any result is unlikely to be as good as a true HDR image. Often the result of such modes is an over-saturated image that you might not like, but there's no harm in trying it and seeing what you think.

Hi Leg 5,

The LG UHD TV is perfect with the now tv box.

The HD streaming looks more like a 4k quality 

picture, due to the LGs HD upscaling to 4k (Mint).

The LG is also passing through the Dolby Atoms

to the TV speakers, and soundbar.

Thanks for your help.

 

BF.
