HDMI Input Resolution

Solved

I have a Samsung TV, UE40KU6000, which is advertised with a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels. However, when I watch TV through the TV box from my Freebox (connected via HDMI), I get a poor quality image with a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels.
Could you tell me if it is possible to increase the resolution of the HDMI inputs on the TV?

For your information: the TV image is poor even when setting the Freebox TV to maximum quality, i.e., HD.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

First, adjust the resolution in the Freebox settings to 1920/1080. In the meantime, unless you have TV programs (like the World Cup, concert) or a 4K player, you won't get anything better.

And of course, at Free, only the Freebox Mini 4K can provide you with a 4K definition of 3840 x 2160 pixels.
And only on a single channel that broadcasts in 4K, which is Festival 4K (channel number 72).
And still, on the condition that your connection has a speed greater than 16 Mbit/s; otherwise, you won't have access to the channel.

The Freebox Revolution, Crystal, or V5 remain at 1080p.

And be careful with budget DVD players claiming to be 4K.
There is a 4K upgrade which is a fake 4K (slight software enhancement of 1080p) and true native 4K (very expensive :-( ).

Thank you for your response. This is what I was thinking. However, one thing surprises me: when I connect my second TV (smaller, 32 inches) to the same TV box, the resolution of the HDMI ports is 1920x1080, while on the larger one (which is 40 inches) it is 1280x720 pixels. I don't understand why.
