Re: UHD on Virgin Media

Well yes - its connected - but is respect on BBC iPlayer it is not the BBC connected service. In fact there isn't really a BBC iPlayer, it is just a BBC section for downloading,

The Planet Earth UHD was a download - but it had no signalling to enable HDR or HLG.

To stream live HLG for the World Cup on iPlayer requires two big steps.

Other apps on Sky Q use streaming such as YouTube , Vevo , Red Bull TV and the forthcoming Netflix service as well as the sidebar apps.
