    Include 4k UHD recording in Game-DVR

    Now that several seem to have the new XBox One S supporting 4k UHD and HDR, it would be natural to ask if the Game-DVR could include support for recording game clips in 4k UHD and HDR as well, and being able to upload these clips to the YouTube app (if
    logged in) as 4k YouTube videos with HDR support? It would be really great Youtube App 4k and HDR support? :)

    Youtube 4K update - NO HDR support

    So Google releases 4K streaming support on the Xbox One S/X finally but 4K vids are all (including HDR vids) using the .vp9 codec. HDR is vp9.2

    I verified this on my Samsung KS8000's built-in youtube app. SMH Google is playing games.

    Unfortunately after checking multiple sources it seems that the YouTube app on the One S does not currently support 4K. The One X app received an update on Dec 11, 2017 which allows 4k content (HDR not included) but the app for One S is still in development.
    Sorry for the confusion. Even I had to do a little research.

    youtube app video playback glitches/dropped frames

    I've started having this issue on my Xbox one x , non Scorpio edition . Watching GN will do it and also Tech Yes City (but his is 30p @4k) . Watching the same videos on my S (the 30p ones play in 4k) , I will not get this issue . I'll watch to see
    what the VP9 is it to see if it's the same . YouTube updated it's app on my Hisense 4k HDR10 tv & either they removed the HDR support or Hisense did . I no longer have HDR on it , yet the signal shows VP9.2 (which should be HDR) . All my issues seemed to occur
    at the same time , which makes me think it's YouTube messing around .
    It's definitely has to do with the updates to YouTube app. Google is migrating away from HEVC and adopting VP9 due to licensing issues and VP9 is open source. I think Google needs to update the YouTube apps on different devices to support VP9 in better manner.
    Also, as I mentioned before, Google is deliberately throttling bitrate of YouTube videos on some devices, but we don't know what devices they are.

    Netflix: No UHD on XBOX One S

    I can verify this issue...Netflix UHD does not work on Xbox One S. I have a Vizio M55-D0 with the latest firmware enabling HD10 support. My TV is now recognized by the One S video settings as 4K HDR capable. I am able to enable HDR support and it works beautifully
    with the Blu-Ray app (Mad Max 4K Blu Ray playing 4K, 24fps, HDR as verified by the Vizio settings app). However when I start Netflix, the screen flashes, colors mute, and video fails to switch to HDR or 24fps. Netflix app is clearly broken right now for HDR.
    If I switch HDR off on the One S, Netflix app is fine, plays 4K correctly, colors are fine obviously no HDR.
