Due to a recently increased upload speed, I can now stream to some of my users 4K content from my Plex server. However, I do not have infinite hard drive space, so I would, at least initially, prefer to limit my 4K collection to films and TV show shows that actually benefit from it.
Personally, and with several of my friends, we’ve come to the agreement that 4K video has about as much advantage as 720 versus 1080. It’s not that big of a leap, and often not entirely worth the upgrade (when accounting for the hard drive space consideration, the added darkness, etc). However, with some films and TV shows, it really does make a huge difference.
With that in mind, what films and TV shows would you recommend that definitely benefit from 4K viewing?
If you’re streaming, the difference between 4k and 1080p is almost not noticeable. You need to have an actual 4k TV (no upscaling) and either
To see the real difference. IMO 1080p at full bitrate (bluray quality) is enough for the vast majority of audiences.
So people not know this? In was assuming op has a 4k tv.
Well a lot of people see “4k” TVs without realizing they are actually 1080p with upscaling, so you think you’re getting 4k but in reality you have dogshit
