Are your videos shown in 4K or 1080p ? - Koying - 2016-02-26
Here is a test file to find out whether your videos are shown in 4K or are downscaled/upscaled: http://www.semperpax.be/owncloud/index.php/s/4a4a721775d14bd2f946bb2d37d80095
Look at the highlighted section on your screen.
If the purple text is legible, like:
You have true 4K playback.
If it looks garbled like:
The video was downscaled somewhere in the playback chain.

Spring clean time - combining threads...
Here is a test file to find out whether your videos are shown in 720p or 1080p: http://www.semperpax.be/owncloud/public.php?service=files&t=ecefea01317949b7c07a02a6280621a9
Look at the highlighted section at the bottom right.

If it looks crisp like:

If it looks blurred like:
It's upscaled 720p.
