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.
