Xbox One S 4K UHD digital rentals & purchases through video marketplace?

WARRIOR I M · Aug 27, 2016

Has Microsoft/Xbox added 4K movie rentals and purchases or are their services still in 2004? I'll be awfully disappointed if the only way I can get 4K movies is through apps, like Vudu, Netflix, and others. I just want to rent 4K movies- possibly purchase
20 movies total. Is there a download rental service for UHD movies?

Wow this is what Xbox One S needed to be from launch!!!!

Sony’s “Ultra” streaming 4K movie service will include rental option and be accessible to 4K PCs -

Direct from Xbox video store 4K UHD movies available for digital rental or purchase from the xbox video store. Xbox One S has zero options for the overwhelming majority of people who just want to rent a new 4K UHD movie and preferably download it to the
hard drive, then watch sonetime in the next 30 days-like PS3 video store and Xbox video store works. This is an ultra hd console with access to not even the basic digital purchase apps for uhd movies, like Vudu or Mgo. A broader 4K video store is needed
with access to every 4K title available now on UHD Blu-ray. Im really dissappointed in a console that was marketed as 4K, yet has no availability to rent nor buy 4K content beyond what my 4K tv apps alreadt do/have access to.

GIVE ME 4K RENTALS VIA A DOWNLOAD OPTION. Look to the PS3 for gow to rent new movies on a streaming or downloadable basis. Xbox One S# Let Down Again

Xbox One S/Scorpio 4K UHD movie rentals?

im wondering if either of the new consoles will offer 4K uhd movie rentals/ digital purchases? I learned my lesson w/Blu-ray, where i buy a disc watch it once or twice and then it sits on my shelf for years. There are a few ill rebuy when they come out
in UHD but most ill just rent. Any info on 4K movie rentals vis download-like it is now on ps3/4 or xbox 360/one? The only uhd player by Samsung just plays discs, not digital downloads. Second, will my apps transfer over like hbo go w/out me having to sign
in again ( dont know password anymore).

Hey there WARRIOR I M!

There isn't currently an option to rent/purchase 4K videos in the Microsoft Video Store, but there is currently an option to stream some 4K content through Netflix. Our teams are always looking at feedback via
Xbox Feedback if you'd like to let them know!

On the Xbox One S games have to be upscaled to 4K. UHD BluRays and 4K digital video streaming will be output in native 4K on the Xbox One S.

Check with the HiSense support, why your TV would not detect a 4K signal from the console. Also make sure that your HDMI cable that you use is able to sustain the higher data rate of 4K video. If you have an older HDMI cable that is not HDMI2.2 compliant,
the cable might induce errors in the data stream, and the TV can't make any sense of the erroneous data coming through the cable.

Unfortunately the Xbox one S is only really capable of maxing out at 1080p UHD. If you want the full 4k HDR experience you'll need the Xbox One X. I dont think there's a way of getting it to run even in 4k UHD on their S. The only 4k you'll get on the
S is the streaming and video quality.

Hello, changed xbox one for xbox one "s" 2 weeks ago. Changed HD terminal for a 4K UHD terminal. Pass-through doesn't work in 4K. I think xbox one s caracteristics are not clear. I upgraded the console and the terminal for the 4K pass-through not for changing
hdmi sources all the time... Not happy about this. I know the xbox one s caracteristics do not say "4K pass-through enable" but as a central entertainment device as MS says, 4K pass-through should be included in the "4K content" terminology. At first I didn't
think 4K pass-through was not supported because it was obvious it was supported.

Hello Spinhead82,

Things are still in a state of change in the land of 4K UHD and haven't quite settled out yet. Part of this may have to do with DRM (Digital Rights Management) and trying to lock things down when it comes to all this 4K digital plumbing. Not only is it the
hardware, like needing to use HDMI 2.X cable. But, it's also the software. Does the firmware in the monitor/TV support the 4K UHD (HDCP 2.2)
content coming from the attached device ("Checking your TV's 4K and HDR capabilities on Xbox One S")? Yes, the Samsung U28E590D
can do 4K UHD, but does it support HDR10? HDR10 support seems to be a very important threshold when comes to connecting the Xbox One S to 4K UHD TVs. The current crop of 4K UHD monitors seems to be more directed to PC gamers. While, the Xbox One S is geared
more toward lager format TVs. I'm sure that this is not the only list, but Windows Central has what it calls "Best 4K HDR TVs For Xbox One S".

Good luck and good gaming,
