Tnt sports Ultimate HDR

Is there no HDR on the discovery app. The last 3 games on a Saturday I've watched haven't had HDR or is the HDR not available on the app?

Yes I have a capable projector and HDR is always on with he sky games . I used to have it through the BT/EE box and had HDR.

There is indeed, I watched the Newcastle game earlier in 4K HDR.

When a game is on in 4K you will find a duplicate of the HD tile with a UHD banner across it. Alternatively, when watching in HD, if you press down to “More to watch”, you will see a UHD tile assuming it is available.

There definitely wasn't any HDR option for me. Just the HD channel option and the 4k option. Wonder if it's because something with EE and the £20 a month sub doesn't allow HDR. Or are you using the app also mate? Or maybe something to do with the discovery app on sky 🤔  I will try logging into just the web browser next time see if any difference.

That is the app on Sky Q, Apple TV 4K, LG TV or the EE Box Pro.

The app, regardless of who you pay or how much delivers up to 4K HDR. None of the streams have the word HDR on them, they just say UHD, but switch to HDR if you have a capable TV and the right settings.

Search for UHD in the app, your TV will need to support 2160p 10 bit to trigger HDR.

A web browser will not deliver 4K or HDR.

This is what I'm saying. My projector projects HDR fine when it comes to movies or sky sports UHD HDR but just not on the discovery app . And obviously I no it's not HDR because I no the difference in picture quality. Ok next week maybe I'll try it on the web player see if any difference. But the app on the sky stream box it's definitely not producing HDR. Maybe I'll try the BT/EE box next week, least if it work on that then I no it's the sky stream box having the issue.

Definitely try another device.

Shame there is no TV guide which states what's on what's HDR. Pretty sure there is not is there.

It is basically what is on TNT Sport Ultimate, although that doesn't guarantee HDR 100%, if the broadcast is based in the UK, then it should include it.

But just searching for UHD in the app should give you plenty of on demand content to test.

UHD

I no there is rugby union at 2.30. I'll have a look and try all my devices.

so just turned the BT/EE box on and went to the discovery app and hey presto we have HDR!

So looks like it's the sky stream box what can't do it. Find that strange though as I watch sky sports UHD with HDR on it. Will give them a call or a message and see if they will get a update on it to fix that in the future. 

But now at least I no I can get the HDR goodness on the BT box.

HDR makes a massive difference in pic quality!
