I really want to see the World Cup in 4k this year, is IPTV the way to go?

by DakThatAssUp

I'm an American and none of the channels here broadcast in 4k so I'm trying to figure out how to get reliable 4k streams of the games, is IPTV the way to go? I also like watching NFL and NBA games. What does /r/IPTV recommend for me?

No such thing as 4K iptv period. Sorry

4K is moving at a snail's pace considering it has been out 5 years but the broadcasters still feel it's debut to primetime is a ways out....the Olympics have been broadcasting SOME events in 4K since 2016...the fact that hasn't really grown is a reflection of the overall market. I think black diamond does 4K- they used to....some may be upscaled as there isn't much 4K out there being sourced..maybe give 'em a look I saw packages @ 25$ per month......that was a year ago when i was sampling everyone i could. so far the only thing drawing folks towards 4K IS sports - I don't think the occasional movie or Tv show is a factor. You probably want a provider for SKY as they started broadcasting SOME sports in 4K back n March.

I don't think there's any services that even have all channels at 1080p. With that said, I'd give Vader's a shot

No

Absolutely no. No private IPTV will show a reliable 4K as of right now.

just FYI, my iptv service just added 2 4k channels today. is it "true" 4k? i dont know and i dont care but it definitely looks 4x times better thatn the 1080p tv broadcast signal.

i opened the m3u file list in vlc player just to see the stream info. I play it directly in my 4k tv using SSIPTV

Get yourself a free smart dns trial account and watch some of it on BBC Iplayer in glorious 4K HDR and the rest on ITV HUB ,the last thing you want to is watch it on is over subscribed IPTV

I guess technically bbc iplayer uses iptv technology. When you ask about iptv, generally speaking, you refer to illegalish services and not legal ones.

It's faster than a VPN it's all you really need to watch bbc iplayer and it's easy to get free trials try smart sms proxy,getflix,unlocater etc

Not sure 4k IPTV exists to be honest. Lots of services (I have a UK based service) that have the BBC and ITV HD channels available with catch up too. I notice some of the games are a little early over there (France tomorrow is 10.30) so the catch up service will help you out. I can grab you a free trial to try tomorrows games if you're struggling.

Whatever you do...enjoy the games !
