minus-squareJumbie@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 hours agoWow. Thanks for responding with a link! Reading the responses, it seems like the quality is based on the app or device doing the streaming. PC streaming seems to fare the worst. I have a dedicated TV app and another on an Xbox Series X. I prefer the console app because the sound decoding seems to be better. I’ll have to do my own testing between more devices and compare image quality. Sorry for doubting you.
