Oh course even if you are watching on DISH (or Peacock or YouTube TV... etc) is it really 4K? I am hearing mixed things that its 1080p upconverted to 4K, like it has been for the past few years. I am having issues confirming that it is TRUE 4K.
I remember the whole True HD 1080i with Voom and we had it for a while till DISH bought the channels and then reduced the bandwidth and reduced it down to basically 720p and stacked the channels so you had 8 channels on one transponder- before mpeg4. Then the Voom channels went under. Everyone felt like we were getting ripped off with the quality of the video reduced. But they also just started showing the same show over and over again all the time. Nothing new. :rolleyes:
 
Just looking at the equipment list for the big game tomorrow, and it appears like the Olympics, this will be upconverted from 1080p.


Out of 125 cameras only 6 of them are 4K.

isn't it all upconverted to save bandwith no matter the provider 🤔
