Does 4K video streaming equal massive data consumption/processing? I ask because I know very little about 4K video and Google wasn't giving the right info

dan330 · Nov 20, 2015

yes... it would be. Massive data

compared to HD .. more than 5 times

for 1040 ...more than triple... my guess with some compression

and more processing for graphic CPUs... to get all that info to be something that we can consume.

Longmire.... last episode of Season 4...

what I want though is to view Season 5 and I can't find it on the NetFlix menu.

FishenFool · Nov 22, 2015

There is no season 5 of Longmire yet. Season 4 just came out in September.

Just finished Jessica Jones. Now I'm back to binging all 9 seasons of X-Files so I'll be up to date when the new mini series appears in January. I'm about halfway through season 7 so I should make it through in time.

Get a 4k TV and the 4k netflix package (11.99 one)

Yes, more data for sure, but Dan is just a bit off below.

It will be twice as much data as 1080 (Standard HD content)

Not sure where any of those numbers came from, to be honest they sound made up

(@EarlyMon can maybe explain a bit more in depth ?

Essentially 4k is twice the resolution as HD 1080 content. HD resolution is 1920x1080, compared to 4k (or ultra hd) at 3840x2160. The '4k' comes from the fact that there are 4 individual pixels for every 1 pixel in traditional HD.

Standard DVD: 720 x 480
Low end HD: 1280 x 720
Traditional HD: 1920 x 1080
Ultra HD: 3840 x 2160

I love it, though I always loved anything that is fast. Cast is great and writing has been super. Love that they threw 90's Flash in the show.

FishenFool · Nov 24, 2015

Just started season 8 of X-Files last night.

PattiCakeUS · Nov 24, 2015

I just started watching Jessica Jones. So happy to see David Tennant is in it!

dontpanicbobby · Nov 25, 2015

I've been watching episodes of the animated series "Archer".

Just watching the first episode now........ and this looks seriously good.

I really don't binge watch shows... but it going to be hard not to with this

Just finished binge watching Jessica Jones it was great. Only problem now I have to wait a year before I can binge watch it again.

Italo · Dec 5, 2015

Still watching Jessica Jones. This is the first time watching something streamed that I haven't just blown it through as fast as possible. I'm going a bit slower and taking it in. It's good.

I also just watched the first episode on Continuum season 4. I don't know I'm watching this... it was bad to begin with. It's still bad. It's been long enough since I last saw it that I remember next to nothing about what's going on. I forgot several characters existed. I only remember a vague outline of the plot. At this point I guess I've seen enough of the series that I feel obligated to keep up with it.

PattiCakeUS · Dec 7, 2015

I was watching Continuum on TV & actually stopped a couple episodes before the series finale. I never really got into it so I figured why even bother finishing.

dan330 · Dec 7, 2015

it started out good.. then dropped off fast

LizMac · Dec 8, 2015

I played a game called "Netflix Roulette" with my remote and my eyes closed because I couldn't decide what to watch, and had to spend 4 rainy days with my parents over Thanksgiving! So, you can see why I'd need to watch something.... normally I'm not a big TV watcher. The show that came up is a comedy/drama/soap opera called Sons of Anarchy about the most inept outlaw motorcycle club ever. I've just finished season 3 and so far they haven't done one outlaw thing successful. They should find work at Walmart. It's a hoot! Most of the dialog goes like this: "Now what?", "What did you do now?", "How is he/she?" with a smirk or a death stare every 15 seconds or so.

I rather doubt I'll make it to the end. Though it is pretty funny.

Love your explanation of the series!!

I skipped a season or two, but did watch most of the last season. Ending blew (imo)

PattiCakeUS · Dec 9, 2015

I watched Hot Fuzz a few nights ago. British movie, kind of a dark comedy, I guess.

I'm just starting this as well; just finished episode 1 and it was pretty intense. Cool concept so far. A friend of mine directed a few of the episodes in Season 1 so I'm psyched to see her work.

FishenFool · Dec 12, 2015

I took a break from my X Files binge to watch Jessica Jones over the weekend when it first came out. I enjoyed it and can't wait for Luke Cage next year. Finished X Files and all the Murdoch Mysteries that Netflix has. Wish they would get season 8. Now I'm streaming Amazon so I can finish Man In The High Castle.

PattiCakeUS · Dec 12, 2015

I watched the movie, The Ridiculous Six last night. I'm not much of an Adam Sandler fan, & it was stupid & politically incorrect, but I thought it was funny.

NightAngel79 · Dec 28, 2015

Just finished Jessica Jones and Daredevil this weekend. Can't wait for season 2 of both

LizMac · Dec 28, 2015

I'm starting on Jessica Jones this week. I finished Sons of Anarchy, and I can't tell you how happy I was to see all these horrible people meet their demise. Honestly someone should have just set fire to the entire town and area! Bleh!
