Living with the Xfinity streaming app

Posted by jdaniel@jps.net on August 14, 2021 at 10:21:19:
It's OK, and very convenient but:

1) finally figured it out: streaming app is limited to 1080. You'd need a box that supports 4K.
2) not all live sports channels are equal. Baseball and Golf look great, Basketball is OK, and Soccer (from "Paypal" Park in San Jose no less), looks like a broadcast from the 70s. I have no idea why, unless the original feed isn't hi-res.
3) 4K is not exploding as promised, but if certain events such as the World Series are broadcast in 4K on a network like NBC, you'd still be limited by the streaming app.
