Live 4K Broadcast on DIRECTV this month!

[tigerfan33]

No one has reported seeing any gold yet. They have been airing boxing and the Star Trek movie. yesterday for a period they were showing Fashion 4K, and then went back to boxing again.

I do wish they had a schedule when things were going to be broadcast, as you can't set it to record. I would leave work for a bit and check it out if I knew when it was on.

I wonder how much space will 4K eat up on the hard drive?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

No idea. But a few hours shouldn't take up too much.

It would be great if they broadcasted the Olympics in 4k.

Especially when showing the Brazilian women's volleyball team

Golf is on now, no sound though

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

How does it look? 4K or about HD quality?

 

[HoTat2]

And on which channels ... 9800, 9801 or both?

Same feed on both channels it seems. Quality is fantastic, def. 4K

Been watching it for about 20 minutes now. To me the picture looks a little too hot on the brightness. But definitely in 4K.

Just a single stationary camera at one hole. And no sound.

Some guy now in a black shirt and green wrist band keeps standing in front of the camera.

Sometimes fast motion looks like its stuttering. Sometimes when someone swings a club you can see the club almost in slow motion so you see the club in motion 3 or 4 times.

PQ looks the same on both channels.

Thanks Scott ...

Also be great if someone could run the SHEF command while tuned to those two channels and post the results.

Like to see each of the data strings.

But remember for privacy to X-out the access card and RID Hex string portions ...

I am out at dinner at the moment but if it's still on when I get home in a half hour I will see if I can do that.

 

[HoTat2]

Ok, thanks again. ..

It's sorta like the boxing because the same guy keeps teeing off.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Back home now and just a black screen on both channels.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I am trying to the SHEF, picture from the Golf Course just returned.

But when I try the decoder it wont let me enter the code I get as it says the Excel file is protected. I can not unprotect it as I don't know the password for the file.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

BTW getting audio now.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Got it working on my Windows PC so I am able to run the SHEF decoder excel file fine, the mac don't like it though.

On all the other channels I can run the command and get back data, however if I try 9800 or 9801 I get the following error message.

{"status": {
"code": 500,
"commandResult": 1,
"msg": "Channel does not exist.",
"query": "/tv/tune?major=9800&minor=65535"
}}
