VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
Collapse

-
From what I have heard Samsung is testing a firmware fix that will allow us to enable UHD on more Samsung 2016 TVs. Unfortunately I don't know when that would be released (I'm assuming later this year) but once it is we should be able to enable 4K in the Vudu app.Originally posted by Ghappyg View PostAny updates on the 2016 KU Samsung line up and UHD support yet.Plus we are still on the old UI.No news in almost a year. Is it time to give up and buy a 4K disc player?

Re: VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
The 2017 Samsung BD players do support UHD. The BD player would need to support Samsung's "Tizen" platform to run the VUDU UHD app. I think the 2016's are still on the old "Orsay" Samsung platform - if that's true the would not work unless Samsung updates them (probably not likely, but who knows).Originally posted by rdawg View PostThanks Jake for your input regarding the issue...just frustrating those of us with some of latest and greatest equipment aren't able to play in the same sandbox as others. Seeing how it's unlikely our 2015 TV sets will get some love...was hoping at least the Samsung 2016 k8500 bd player would and act as that STB you spoke of. Thanks again.

Re: VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
Yeah, I'd love to tell you it was a simple app update but it's not. Our current app fully supports UHD on Samsung, but we can't enable it until the TV firmware works properly. We have been trying for over a year to get all of the 2016 TVs supported. At this point I'm not sure UHD/HDR will happen natively on 2015 TVs. Your best bet may be trying to get it working with a Roku or other STB via HDMI...Originally posted by rdawg View Post

Re: VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
Supporting UHD on the app on the TV and via HDMI are two completely unrelated things.Originally posted by rdawg View Posthttp://www.flatpanelshd.com/news.php...&id=1441271852
Come on now VUDU...those of us with these models can stream 4k UHD from FandangoNow, Netflix, YouTube etc etc your loooooong over do for allowing us the same support!!! Step up your game please!
HDMI support is completely up to "negotiation" between the Roku and the TV hardware via HDMI/HDCP, it's not an app compatibility issue.
Support for Vudu UHD on a 2015 Samsung TV itself would involve Samsung choosing to update the TV firmware, which they have not decided to do for now. We are still working with Samsung to support the low end 2016 (KU6500) models but progress has been slow, to say the least.

Re: VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
Thank you but even if I do this does VUDU support UHD in this method? I thought I had to have the Roku plus a supported TV per your compatibility post.
Tv has hdcp 2.2. Not sure about 10 bit color.
Originally posted by Jake View PostIf you are using the Roku 4 connected to a TV, then the requirement is that the TV supports HDCP 2.2 on the HDMI input. You also may want to make sure that the HDMI input is also enabled for "deep color" or whatever Samsung calls it (for 10 bit input). Unfortunately many 2014/2015 TV models did not support 4K@60Hz, HDCP 2.2, and 10 bit color on the same HDMI port - and if yours even does, it may only be on one of the HDMI ports, so that's important to check, as well.

It's basically the Samsung 2015 UHD model. I love the TV but hate that I can't get UHD digital movies on VUDU yet. I hope there's some progress soon!
Thanks for any info related to this!
Edit: just for clarification I'm using a Roku 4 to stream but to my Samsung 4k TV

Re: VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
Thank you for that information, thats all we ask for.Originally posted by Jake View PostWhen a UHD movie is played back on certain TV models, after a certain amount of time there is severe macroblocking, and after a while playback on *any* video app (including Netflix, etc) may hang until the TV is hard power cycled. We can't release the app on those TVs until that is resolved, of course, and it's not a VUDU bug (it's a decoder/firmware bug) so we can't fix it, either, Samsung needs to fix it.

Re: VUDU UHD ENABLED ON MY SAMSUNG TV!
I really appreciate your informative posts Jake, it's easy to tell there is a lot of work and passion into making Vudu the best user experience it can be.Originally posted by Jake View PostWhen a UHD movie is played back on certain TV models, after a certain amount of time there is severe macroblocking, and after a while playback on *any* video app (including Netflix, etc) may hang until the TV is hard power cycled.

You've been giving us that vague answer (critical firmware bugs) for months without any real explanation. All we want is a Vudu app with UHD & HDR support, I'm not understanding why this is so difficult.
