Thanks appreciate the help alot. But why would I get it for a few weeks then it goes away?thanksBecause those channels haven't officially launched yet.
Because before it was tests for the CE but now they are getting it ready for official release this week.
they are still in testing right nowBecause those channels haven't officially launched yet.
I still get the 9800 test channel but not 106. Last night on 9800, the boxing clips were replaced with a stay tuned for the Masters in 4k message overlaying a video clip shot at Amen Corner. At first I didn't think it was video, but then noticed the movement of the flowers and how the sunset rays moved with the tree branches. Very nice. Looking forward to the real deal.
Overhead views look great but I think there is still quite a bit of 1080p upconversion on player shots.
I think there must be 4k cameras on the green but not on some of the fairway shots to the green. There was a great shot of Tom Watson's soccer-patterned golf ball rolling towards the hole on the green.
Nothing is upconverted. The amount of detail in the trees and flowers is amazing. The behind the #12 and #13 tee shots are incredible when you compare them to the blurry 720P from ESPN. The Flora behind those greens have always been somewhat lacking detail even in 1080i. In 4K they are at another level. In 720P they are a blurry soft mess.
The terrain and grass in 4K is crisp vs the mush on ESPN.

I had a problem trying to watch when I got home got the following work and got this error message that all 4K streams were in use.
I only have a HR54 and C61K and the C61K was on ESPN.
I hate to reboot the HR54 in order to watch it. And when I finally tuned in it was over for the day.

Sounds disappointing to you all . . . at least directv is trying it out vs dish doing nothing. Keep us informed how it looks over tourney
I had my HR54 record all 8.5 hours of the 4K coverage today. That used up around 14% of the storage capacity. The quality of the recording was very good.
I don't have any more audio issues after I switched from using optical out to coax out to my HDMI 1.4 AVR.

I have had that problem if I leave the C61K tuned to a 4K channel and turn it off. I have been tuning to a HD channel before I turn it off and have not had it happen again.
I may have to try that. I am using an optical cable from the C61K and sometimes do not have any audio when I change to a 4K channel until I change to another channel and then back again.
What type of problem were you having?
The 4K broadcast was definitely better than the regular feed but it did not blow me away.
I am glad I was able to upgrade to a HR54 for the cost of shipping only.
Had I payed 300 bucks I would not be a happy man.
