uhd

Hello, I am looking for an external UHD/Blu-Ray drive that has been confirmed to work on a Mac. I have been reading a few threads on the MakeMKV site and also some reviews from Amazon. I would rather not have to flash a drive, as I know the Pioneer drives are supposed to work out of the box...

I would like to know if this is a widespread problem or just minority thing. Some people at this forum have already succeed to play Netflix with their Mac at 4K. But I don't. Please leave a message if you can't. And welcome to leave suggestion of solution if you have some. My device: the...

Hi guys, been away for a while and need some expert advice. I have an Apple TV Mk 4 and it works very well with VLC streaming MKV HD (1920x1080) files from my Mac. I now have a large 4K TV and would like to enjoy UHD (4K) content. Over the past 12 months I have managed to store most of my DVD...

Hi all... I am looking at upgrading my old 2012 Mac Mini and replacing my VERY old Mac Cinema displays. I was wondering if anyone here has had any experience with using a 4k UHD TV as a display on the new Mac Mini. I largely work in Photoshop and Lightroom and run two monitors right now and I...

Hi all, I'm thinking of buying a new Mac mini and pairing it via HDMI with a Samsung 43" UHD (2018) TV for our family room TV. I haven't bought anything yet. Because the Mac mini native resolution is 4096x2160 while the Samsung UHD is 3840x2160, I'm worried that the Mac will have to downscale...

It’s the only way to get Disney owned films in 4K, if available. Most of you may know this already but just in case, I mention it. If you want all the MCU films, Pixar, and Star Wars as they become available, and any other Disney property, VUDU is the only way to get full tilt 4K experience on...

I'm a designer / developer from India. I have a 2017 13" MacBook Pro Touchbar and a good Dongle (Juiced System Bizhub). In office I work on a 21.5" iMac but recently I'm having trouble working from home in the 13" laptop screen. Too much scrolling and constant need to forward neck. I am looking...

Hello, I have been reading through threads all morning and think I almost have things figured out. Just have a couple of questions to conform things and a couple more to to see if there is an answer that I haven't found yet. I'm running a Mac Pro 5,1 with 10.13, and looking to buy two LG...

https://www.whathifi.com/news/oppo-closes-its-doors-ditches-blu-ray-player-business It's an unfortunate fate for manufacturer of high-end products that are sometimes used as a reference for image quality. Other manufacturers will likely stop producing 4K bluray players too. I blame the movie...

I want to hook up a UHD tv to my 2017 iMac 27”. Do I need a wretched dongle to get UHD output? For 60 hz? For 30? I have an old Thunderbolt 2 to HDMI adaptor, but nothing for USB 3. I’m hoping to avoid #donglelife

This week I upgraded from PS3 to PS4 blow and popped in a Blu-ray movie this morning. The image quality jump is huge! Colours are more vivid, grain reduced and overall clarity is better. While the image is a touch softer if you sit very close, it’s not far from 4K Movies on iTunes. Oblivion in...

I watch a a lot of YouTube videos that are downscaled to 1080p from 4K. I'm aware there's an incompatibility issues between ATV and YouTube's 4K format. Will this be resolved soon or is it a white elephant that both Google and Apple are ignoring? I would rather not have to buy a ChromeCast...

Hi All, Is it possible to play a 4K Movie file on the Apple TV? Can you do this by adding 4K mp4s to iTunes, and stream it the conventional way in full quality? If not, can you use some other service like PLEX? Thanks all, Chris

IINA got updated with the latest ffmpeg that supports hardware acceleration 2 days ago. These numbers focus on the difference between hardware accelerated and non-hardware accelerated decoding of HEVC 4K UHD content. IINA is as of now my favourite media player but I have to mention something...

Hey, guys! Mac noob here. I'm strongly considering changing allegiances, mainly because I'm a designer and want to use Sketch. The questions I have are as follows: I have two Dell U2713HM 27" monitors with 2560x1440 WQHD resolution. If I buy the new iMac with 27" 5k screen, I would also want...

Jellyfish 140mbps 4K UHD h264 My 2017 MacBook Pro 13" TB (base stock configuration) can't play this smoothly in VLC. The first 15 seconds are choppy and then it becomes smooth but the VLC CPU usage is 300+%. Hardware support for h264 should be good enough already. Is the bitrate too high here...

TVP/Phillips BDM4037UW LCD/W-LED pannel - 3840x2160 (8-bit) 3000R. http://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/57f86d7 It looks like this monitor being slowly rolled out, Europe first (for once). And it's clear that they've made a lot of compromises in order to keep the prices at "consumer...
