I think, Apple has superior upscaling capabilities: [link]

And in the linked post the Infuse upscale image is outdated, as since they have been updated the app with better scalling implemented. Would be nice to see a newer similar comparison also with MrMC images included.

Also: is there a "whitelist" native auto resolution switching option in MrMC or on any other player on ATV 4K? I mean also for SD and 720p? Or the res is always stuck at the GUI's res?

Btw. the whitelist was a long wished feature by some "loud screaming" users ... you will find some funny notes on github concerning that.(2018-11-17, 12:49)Mount81 Wrote: As for SD/720p upscalling quality, I would be also curious.

The upscaling on the Apple TV is really good, but there's no auto resolution switching with the ATV4K and there's no white list (kodi's the only app I know of that does this weird white listing instead of automatically switching). The only switching the ATV4K does is refresh rate switching and color space switching (the most important one in my opinion right now).

WHO CARES ABOUT THE STUPID INTERFACE?! Plex does this better. I don't understand why anyone would buy this filter down version... Well at the same time some people buy a filter down TV box by purchasing Apple TV instead of a good android box for a mere interface. Whatever...Not an apple fanboy but i have noticed across the board much better PQ with appletv than my shield.

Whatever...The biggest difference is equivalent Android platforms like the Shield TV are primarily video game consoles and not video players. The Apple TV 4K is a dedicated video player.

Whatever...Yep - but the Apple TV 4K handles frame rate switching, EOTF and colour gamut switching far better than most Android TV platforms - and also has excellent Netflix and Amazon Prime Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos support.

That thing is God awful, Apple should fire whoever designed it.. burn the designs and recall all the siri remotes and launch them into outer space..
Worthless and ergonomically crap POS!
