| Topic | I can't tell the difference between 4k and 1080p video on a 4k monitor. |
| Sahuagin 09/08/21 1:33:44 PM #8: | I haven't actually compared before, but look at the smaller detail stuff. at a macro-scale it should look similar, but at a micro-scale (fine detail) the 1080 should get blurry before you can see much smaller-scale detail, whereas with the 4k you should be able to see a surprising amount of detail. additionally due to certain video compression protocols (or something), many 1080 videos will actually already be less quality than they could be. I don't know the technical terms for it, but in many 1080 files the "shading" that is used per each "cell" of each frame is merged between clusters of four (each cluster has the same shade as the top left cell of the cluster, rather than each cell having its own shade). this often means that a 4k video will already look better than a 1080, even on a 1080 display, because the 4k will not have that issue. --- ...
