Poor quality Sky Sports Channels Proven Today by C4’s Better Quality F1 Same Coverage

[jameshornby1980]

Proven today by switching between 141 (C4) and 501 (Sky Sports Main Event).

I’ve always said your Football wasn’t HD when comparing Sky HD to BT Sport HD.

Today I can see the difference in quality between Virgin Media Sky and the better C4.

Very Annoying.

I am going to complain to the regulator.

I’m using the v6 as outputting at 2160 because I watch BT Sport UHD.

I guess you’d suggest switching to 1080 for SkySports and letting the tv upscale which likely much better at it being a 2021 TV

The V6 should generally be setup not to upscale. I have mine setup to output 576i, 1080i and 2160p with passthrough enabled for 1080p and 2160p if you use the V6 apps. Your TV is likely to upscale far better than the V6.

Have you been able to try switching to the 1080 to see if this helps?

No noticeable change I am afraid.

Ive arranged an upgrade to the 360 box which I’ll do next weekend.

Thank you for keeping updated on this. 

Please do let us know how the new box goes.

The 360 will have to do the upscaling then as there is no other option unlike with the V6.
