    4k streaming on Amazon video?


    I am very confused as I thought the latest update to Amazon added 4k streaming. Been trying to watch grand tour in 4k but it's only streaming at 1080p. Netflix works great for 4k. What's going on? Is it something like Netflix where I need to go to the Amazon
    website and set something up for 4k streaming?

    :)

    @A8T8 that might be the case. Except several TVs, new Rokus, 4K players and so on are supporting 4k streaming. Not to mention Amazon video, Netflix and so on.

    What Apps currently have 4k content

    During the launch announcement and even on the Xbox One S page here at Xbox.com it lists Amazon and Neflix but I am not getting 4k content to show up in the Amazon App, only Netflix. Also while chatting with Xbox on another issue they stated that Youtube
    should be streaming 4k but I can say for sure it is not. Anyone else getting Amazon or Youtube to stream 4k?

    4k streaming on Amazon video?

    Hello Krohn,

    I'm an old Top Gear fan from way back. Started streaming the shows on my Xbox 360. The Grand Tour is great 4k streaming on Amazon video? :D but, I have only streamed it on my PC. So, I have to ask: When you say Amazon and Netflix, you are referring to the Amazon and Netflix Apps running
    on your Xbox? And, do I understand correctly, you are not having problems with 4K streaming via the Netflix App? Then the question is, is it only The Grand Tour that streams at 1080p using the Amazon App? The Amazon App may be able to support 4K streaming,
    but is it 4K content that is getting to the Xbox...?

    Amazon Prime Video on XBOX Series S --- continuuous resolution changing

    Since you can stream HD and 4K just fine through other streaming services, I believe the issue has to be with the Amazon Prime Video app itself.

    Try reinstalling to see if it corrects the issue. If it doesn't I would recommend getting in touch with their support for further investigation!

    UHD bluray problem XBox one S

    I am having the same experience as ItsParN. I have the Samsung UHD 7250. The smart hub Netflix and Amazon are in Ultra HD when streaming. The Xbox One S dashboard is in 4k or upscale 4k except the Ultra Blu Rays that I try. When I put those in it goes
    back to 1080P. Advanced video options in the settings show green check marks for my tv 4K options. The Xbox One S Netflix app doesn't not show the 4k Ultra content. Neither does the Amazon app.
