Looking for a provider with ACTUAL HD quality streams. Mostly for sports.
Its becoming more and more common. Vader, Fab, Ace, Epic and I’m sure others all have some FHD (1080p) channels. Bitrates aren’t perfect and they won’t be 60fps, but they are 1080p. Personally, for sports, I prefer a 720p stream at 60fps to a 1080p at 25-30fps, but thats just me. That seems to be the trade off at this point.
Proper FHD might come soon once providers get aroung to joining this decade and using x265 which has around double the efficiency of the x264 they all use now. My concern is that they won't use x265 to provide better quality at the same bandwidth, they will use it to provide the same quality as now, at half the bandwidth, which doesn't help 95% of customers in any way, but helps the provider make more money due to less bandwidth. Hopefully the better providers like Ace, Fab, Vaders etc all decide to go for quality over money grabbing, and ultimately they will benefit due to more people joining iptv as a result.
But it's not happeningy yet. 1 or 2 smaller providers seem to have just switched to x265 so hopefully the rest are not far behind now.
Broadcasters don't even always have 1080p.
A lot of sports is 720p because it looks better than 1080i. Like FOX
Try Express IPTV or VooDoo IPTV buy here
Rapid has 1080i 50fps on a lot of europian channels and freview channels like BBC ITV are the same as on terrestrial 1080i 50fps When it comes to SKY UK the story is the same on all providers same as Rapid horrible 25fps and even though they labeled Full HD they are compresed . Some europian channels are very little compresed like polish dutch and some nordic channels But hundreds of 1080i 50fps channels and thats a joy to watch
I’ve got one for you to try. Pm sent
Epic has quite a few 1080p 60fps, but seriously, if you're going to be like that just get legit. Providers cut corners to increase profitability, and you're not going to find many with true 1080p. Reliability on 1080p channels is always a hit or miss.
There are a lot of providers out there that DO stream in FULL HD for sports and some other channels. You just need to look harder to find them.
You best get yourself digital cable or satellite dish. You won't find 1080 60fps consistent. They will tell you they are, but there not. Express has higher quality but not consistent, some days they buffer
