A new TV offers the possibility to watch 4k movies to me. I am thinking about upgrading my library but I’m not sure if I want to replace my 1080 collection. I’ve read that some use a separate 4k library.

Do you? How do you deal with it? I mostly add movies with trakt and radarr automatically. Do you use separate accounts?

This right here. We can obviously tell a difference but the leap in quality from 1080p (Blu-ray) to 4k is not the leap that dvd to Blu-ray was. I have most in 1080p and my very few favorites or very iconic movies that benefit from the higher res, in 4k.

I think the only difference is the encoding quality of 1080p can beore noticeable, but if it’s a high quality file then it’s fine. Other than that, dark movies. Dark movies seem to greatly benefit from 4k even on 1080p displays.

Could be the encode again, but I’ve tried a few different versions of files
