You boys are probably still slapping the side of the TV to get the picture to straighten up, right?

    It's especially worrisome with Newegg and Tiger selling cheap off
    brand 4K's under 500 bucks. And Roku is starting a big sale this
    week.
    I've already had calls this morning if customers current bandwidth
    will stream 4k. NOPE sorry.. Then I tell them what package we do
    offer that will support it and they freek out. Like I'm gona give
    bandwidth away for free. GEEZ

        If we had customer service who was firm it wouldnt be an issue
        "we dont offer that speed currently"
        but instead, the customers on 900 will be the ones who get the
        tv, and the subscription and call in, and CS will keep saying,
        well isnt there anything we can do for this guy in the middle
        of the forrest with the 300 foot cable run? and Ill have to go

            I'd think if someone could figure out a way to get the
            movies from RAM, they could also figure out a way to
            capture them from a stream.

                Because then people could "save" the movies in RAM,
                and someone would figure out a way to be able to
                download them and put them on the Internet for free.

                It's a licensing issue... that's why "streaming" is OK.

                That 187MB translates to only about 11.25 GB per
                hour. Why not stick in a 32GB memory and be done?
                That would be almost 3 hours of buffer.

                It's really too bad that the devices that support
                all these streaming services can't have a larger
                buffer. I'm sure it's part of their licensing deals,
                but if they could buffer 60 seconds of stream (at
                any quality), they would have much fewer support
                calls for streaming issues, etc.

                Using Netflix's 25Mbps for 4k, that works out to
                187.5MB of storage space. At current RAM prices, you
                can buy a 256MB module for $15 full retail... so
                places like Samsung can probably buy them in
                quantity for less than $2. Seems like it would be
                worth it to pay an extra $10 for a TV/DVD/PS4/Wii-U
                device that could handle 60 seconds of video.

                That’s pretty cool.

                You can do 4k direct from Youtube.

                Several of the ones I’ve tested are sustained
                around 20-30Mbps.

                But on my network it tends to burst to 90Mbps then
                sit around for a while, then burst back to 90Mbps.

                I think the 4k will require a lot of optimizations
                before it works on the built in TV’s.
