I just got a new samsung 4k tv (ks7000), i have set it up using recommended settings found on the internet, the picture quality looks perfect on my xbox and when i play blurays from usb! The problem is when i plug my VU+ Duo2 in the image is blurred even on the HD channels and epg.

If i upgrade to the Uno4K will this fix my problem?

Thanks

Doubt it. Make sure the box settings are correct. What image are you using? Iv not got 4k TV but assuming the gui scaling is wrong and that's why it's looks blurred. Is the video fine?

What video output settings have you used on the sat receiver?

Most TV channels are interlaced, set your box to output in 1080i 50hz, then in the Samsung set Film Mode to Auto 2 (HD deinterlace) and change Auto Motion Settings to Off or Clear ( I prefer Off it is more Natural).

I turned auto motion off and it has helped a bit, but there is still a huge difference from when i play a bluray from usb compared to when i play the same bluray from the vu+

709 is not an option

Options are
Rgb
422
444
420

Have tried them all but nothing changes

Only goes up to 1080, might just upgrade to the uno4k see if that helps

if your box is not a 4k (2160) which the duo2 is not, then the picture will not upscale to 2160 only 1080p or I are available.

on non 4k receivers, the picture is ok, not great. don't think upgrading to 4k will give you instance 4k quality. yes the picture is much approved, but not 4k

trying changing to multi, instead off 50hz or change to another HDMI cable

If thats the high end Panasonic, then it's not surprising. They still have all the Plasma experience and this TV uses all that technology and experience.

I have the 802b and no problems here either maybe Panasonic have a slightly better upscaling engine, I have my duo 2 set to automatic resolution

I had a play around with the automatic resolution yesterday but it just looked the same, got a notification on the samsung tv before saying "the current input resolution is low"

Im still considering upgrading to the uno4k im not expecting a big difference from it but if it sorts out the blurring on HD channels/EPG i will be happy

There is definitely a setting somewhere that is incorrect. I get a tremendous HD picture with my VU+ duo 2 and my 4K Samsung TV which does the upscaling. Is your Hdmi lead the new high speed 2.0

I have figured it out, after playing around with the settings on vu+ and nothing was changing i reset all the settings on the tv! Turned HDR+ on then played around with the expert settings, looks a lot better now
