Download player

Can someone tell me why the download player on a 1920x1080 display, looks like the lowest resolution garbage? Im trying to watch the new justice league but it literally looks like a pirated copy. Can someone please help before i lose my nut with this garb streaming service.

So I know that Boost gives you 1080p picture quality. 
However the “player” on laptops is not supported by Boost yet.

No. Boost isn't available on any of the following devices that you can watch NOW on:

  • PC/Mac
  • iOS or Android mobile devices 
  • Roku devices other than Roku Express or Roku Streaming Stick
  • Apple TV 2nd or 3rd generation
  • Chromecast 1st or 2nd generation.

So that would mean the best you’d get with the “player” on your laptop is 720p.

Not a problem, I know they had decommissioned the app for PC/laptops. So we can hope it’s a matter of when the player will

get the Boost treatment.

 

On a side note, I thought the Synder cut of Justice League was outstanding, as good as some Avenger films. 
Definitely helps wipe the 2017 version from existence!
