    Hunger Games - UHD Redemption

    I know that Vudu currently doesn't have any of the Hunger Games movies in UHD.

    That said has anyone purchased any / all of the Hunger Games UHD Disc combo packs, redeemed the Digital HD and gotten UHD digital rights?

    If it gets proper rights I'd buy it now, otherwise I'll just continue to wait till it appears on Vudu.

    You only get UHD UV rights by redeeming on Flixster (as of now). They all ported to my UV library as UHD, HD, and SD. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire actually ports to Vudu in UHD (with Dolby Atmos audio) from UV locker, even though you can't buy it on Vudu. Hopefully the rest port over to Vudu once they get UHD files from Lionsgate.

      Awesome. I'm picking them up in a few hours.

        I can confirm this. Picked up all 4 movies in a pack at BB today in UHD. I redeemed them on Flixster and they show up on myUV as Standard, HD and UHD. Vudu will only play Catching Fire in UHD which stinks because there is no Flixster app for my LG TV so I'm pretty much stuck watching the HD versions.

          I just did the same.

          According to Fandango there is an app for LG. I don't know if it's UHD or not. I ask since my UVVU account shows what appears to be a Flixster and MGo app as when the HG codes were added, and with MGo not being around anymore it redirects to Fandango now.

            This spreadsheet is a nice resource for knowing where to go to redeem UHD UV rights:

              I have the spreadsheet book marked and use it regularly. However, in this case for (most of) the Hunger Games movies it states No & No for UHD porting and since there isn't a column for UVVU rights. Given this the spreadsheet was of no help.

              I just wanted to make sure I got UHD rights, regardless if I could watch it in UHD or where I had to redeem to get proper rights.

                Well the whole point of the spreadsheet is where to go to get UHD UV rights so I don't understand why it's of no help with respect to Hunger Games as it says to use Flixster to get said rights.

                  I have to agree with Starkenator that the spreadsheet would have absolutely answered your question.

                  You asked whether Hunger Games will give you UHD UV rights, regardless of whether it ports to any services that way. The fact that it's listed in the first section is what tells you it does. If it didn't grant UHD UV rights it would have been listed in the "4K Blu-ray with no UHD UV" section further down.

                    See now that's a misunderstanding. I was reading it that if port to Vudu was NO and port to Fandango was NO that it wasn't giving UHD UV rights. I see that the sheet is only for those that do redeem as UHD.

                      Yes, if it's in that first section that means you will get a UHD copy in your UVVU locker, with the "port to Vudu" and "port to FandangoNow" columns telling you whether you will actually be able to watch it in UHD at those two services. Having both of those say "no" doesn't mean that you won't still get the UHD UV rights.

                      At the end of the day, it's ridiculous that we even need a fricken spreadsheet to figure this out!

                        So true, the studios should all do the same thing and redeem the UV copy in UHD if that's the version we purchased.
