BBC iPlayer Blue Planet 2 uhd hdr

[darrenj11]

10th December this will be available on uhd and hdr on Sony 2017 models. 

Did anyone hear of a plan to introduce the  BBC hdr to older Sony models? I believe they are using a different type of hdr than currently installed on the 2015 /2016 models.

"Can anyone here really imagine Sony will be getting out firmware updates before Blue Planet UHD drops off iPlayer? I'm an optimist by heart, but have very little faith."

ohh im in no doubt this will come before the end of the trial, however im also in no doubt this rushed and botched update will give us a whole new wave of other issues, nothing to important tho maybe this time we may only be able to watch TV in black and white, in spanish on thursdays

Do Sony actually read/reply to these threads?

If Sony pull this out of the bag I will be absolutely amazed

[ajwool]

I've been emailing support and had nothing back that inspires me with any confidence.

[mobilyuk]

They don't care once you've bought the TV

@ajwool No. Sony don't respond on this forum.

Also why email them?

You have no way of knowing that your mail has been read until or if you get a response.

I never understand why people don't telephone Support 😞

Its alot quicker

So Sony let me add this up got the KD65XE9305 got the broadband speed that`s 2 things 

and Sony got No BBCiplayer 4K support & No Dolby Vision that`s 2 things.

That adds up to i have got to remember the next time i look to buy something Sony.

PS could have got LG & got it all, but is that being greedy.

I bought my XE90 on the strength of the BBC I Player release of ~Blue Planet 4K, very, very disapointed!

[stormyuk]

Yeh I didn't buy it for Blue Planet but I made sure I researched this TV having HLG support for IPlayer which all the reviews confirmed it did... It's not as though HLG is used for anything else.

Very disappointed in Sony for this debacle.
