HDMI Version 2.1

HDMI 2.1, and it includes some major improvements - 1/4/2017 "Latest version of HDMI comes packing support for 8K resolution and Dynamic HDR. One of the biggest changes is that the new version of the specification features support for 8K resolution at 60 frames per second. If you’ve only just gotten used to 4K, don’t worry, there’s good news for you, too: 4K video with a frame rate of up to 120 frames per second is now supported as well. While increased resolution has a debatable effect on picture quality, especially at smaller sizes, one thing that has been making a noticeable difference on new TVs is high dynamic range (HDR). The HDMI 2.1 specification also brings increased HDR support, as it now is compatible with Dynamic HDR, which can change brightness, contrast, and even color gamuts on a scene-by-scene or even frame-by-frame basis. While the above features focus on picture quality, the new specification also brings audio-related improvements. Audio return channel (ARC) allows for a more simple solution for setting up your TV with a soundbar or A/V receiver, and the latest version of this, called eARC, keeps the simplicity while adding support for the newest object-based surround sound formats like Dolby Vision or DTS:X. Many of these features will require new 48G HDMI cables, which allow for bandwidth up to 48Gbps for 8K video with HDR. Fortunately, these cables will be backward compatible, so while you may have to go cable shopping, at least you won’t have to worry about keeping multiple types of cables around." - digitaltrends.com NOW IF ONLY HDMI ALLOWED THEM TO PUT THE VERSION NUMBER ON THE CABLE

Sling TV gets more movies with Fandor Festival, and more channels from Starz - 12/14/2016 Why Sling TV is an essential part of a balanced cord-cutting diet - 12/15/2016 SLING TV - Video quality: "We tested Sling TV on a 65-inch TV screen, which we expected would expose any shortcomings in video quality … and it did. With a strong internet connection and good throughput, we felt like we were watching 720p at best (on Sling TV). Cable,Satellite, Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu all have better-looking HD streams in our estimation. On smaller screens, compression artifacts and poor resolution are much less noticeable. We think Sling TV looks just fine forscreens 47-inches and smaller, and beautiful on tablets and phones." - digitaltrends.com
