It is muted.

I have memory positions setup on my projector and this one looks better when adjusted for HDR.

Agreed! Love the no commercials .. gotta have surround sound so toggling back and forth...
The HD broadcast on 150 looks unusually crisp this evening..
Wish all "HD" was like this ...I'd care less about 4K

Colors look fine and vibrant on the fubo stream. It activated the HDR logo on my tv when I switched to the 4K feed on my fire tv.

I meant the colors are muted until I load my HDR setting.

That’s up to whoever produces the races. DISH is not a content producer. They just pass along what they get.

I agree more 4k!

But 4k is growing . I'm March there were over 40 LIVE 4k events between NBA, college basketball (big 10 tournament, big east tournament and some of March madness ) EPL Soccer , and MLB .

I don't really see that much of a dramatic difference in 4k. HDR is what I want to see. That is shocking better to me. Wonder when is that going to start to happen! They had it for The Winter Olympics, why not now!

There’s a huge difference in 4K when I watch in my theater.

4K is and will be 'all that'
while full bandwidth provided.

1080i HD was 'all that'
back when full bandwidth was provided.

As 4K becomes more mainstream
Providors will start compressing bandwidth.

And just as 1080i HD has suffered the
'public majority acceptable' bandwidth compression,
4K bandwidth will get compressed to
'public majority acceptable' bandwidth.

Enjoy the full bandwidth while you got it...

So sad, but so true.

There is no overflow for 4K. The second game, and they will only happen in the knockout rounds of the second round, will be HD only.

Ok, here is the 4K June Chart , please let me know any edits for Dish

 

[dtv757]

Is any able to watch today's game via 4k or are you getting blackout/subscription message?


Users on multiple forums state unable to view today's game in 4k (DirecTV and fios )

Today's game is a local fox game not Fs1 game if that matters

I gather the only 4K on Dish is sports. Correct? Maybe a couple movies on demand? No other programming?

Not worth giving up my recording in progress light for.

That is mostly correct. They have had some nature programming like Planet Earth and we had the MTV Awards show.

 

[reubenray]

I checked into the 4K soccer matches and I did not see any great difference in other programs. My TV does upgrade, so maybe that is why.

The first 14 minutes of the Spain versus South Africa match on 540-01 is a black blank screen. The broadcast starts at 9 min 37 seconds in the match. The other 2 games Norway versus Nigeria and Germany versus China played from the beginning.
It appears that Fox Sports had problems with the beginning of the Spain versus South Africa game since Direct TV and FIOS customers all had problems.
