Hi @Anonymous User 

If you are seeing a streaming figure around 8000 then it looks like you have a Boost Membership where it is playing back at HD 1080p.

Oh right it used to say 7830 but now has changed to 8023, I noticed it

Hi @Anonymous User 

A figure of 7830 will also denote HD 1080p with a Boost Membership.

If you see a figure around 4800 then the NOW content streams at 720p.

From my understanding the streaming figure around 8000 can't distinguish a 50fps sports stream or 5.1 surround sound from my testing.

Picture looks really sharp and has improved from yesterday, I also noticed the now tv app has been updated today

Hi @Anonymous User 

Out of curiosity what version number of the NOW App is showing on your Fire TV cube ?

I don't own a Fire TV cube, but on my 4K Fire Stick the NOW App it is currently showing Version 3.1.0.
