Hello.
During CES I heard a news that Sony will bring Android 6 (Marshmallow) to the 2015 TV lineup.
General News about Marshmallow on Android TV's
These news are from January.
Had anyone heard something new about this?
I'm having the same problem after the software update. As soon as I leave the EPG, all my set favorites are gone.
"I do agree very much in what's being said on nivida website.
So instead of running at 4K 30fps it's running at 1080p at much higher framerate at 60fps."
I have the SONY XD558509c. It does 4k@60fps with Zero problems on my PC and my Playstation 4 Pro. I'm pretty sure your TV can run 4k@60fps with zero problems too.
Still doesn't change the fact that your tweak does exactly NOTHING to video sources as I stated in my previous post
As my TV also has an active 3d panel it can do 1080P@120fps.
Hi all - apologies if this has been answered somewhere else - I can't find any relevant posts. I'm very worried that my 2016 model - 43XD8099 hasn't been listed by Sony for this update. Only the 2016 55 inch and up 2016 models are listed. Does anyone know why? If the 43" models are not getting updated - which would be outrageous - then I'll send it back to John Lewis as it's still under warranty.

It does have an immediate and very noticeable effect ON 1080 HDMI SOURCES ONLY. Sorry for the caps but this point keeps being missed over and over again. It's smoother and there's the sort of natural clarity you don't get when 1080 is upscaled to 4k. It's a more natural image. I'm not really bothered if you keep loudly insisting it makes no difference as I can see that it obviously does.

Everything on your TV is upscaled to 4k regardless of whether its a 240p Youtube Video or a 1080p source. You have a 4K TV, it will always be a 4K TV and can never be a 1080p TV. It doesn't matter if your TV is doing the scaling, or your Playstation, Xbox or PC is doing it, ALL non-native 4K sources fed to your TV are upscaled to fit the panel.
If you natively outputted a source to your TV at 1080 res without scaling as you seem to be implying, your image will be in a rectangular window in the middle of the screen exactly a quarter the size of your panel surrounded by a massive black border.
If you want to see what this effect would look like, find a 1080p encoded Movie or Tv show in Kodi, start it up, go to Video settings and change the output to "Original Source", you will have an image as exactly as I stated above.
I'm not going to post anymore on this subject, you can make your own conclusions, it's your TV after all. Cheers!
Looks like USA getting nougat real soon
