washed out look with the Roku
same program thru my TV bypassing RokuLive 4K through the Roku Ultra 2024 is NOT vivid and has a washed out look. The app i use is You Tube TV and extensive troubleshooting led me to load the You Tube TV app within the TV's operating system (bypassing the Roku) and it looks great. Prerecorded 4k You Tube clips THROUGH the Roku are also great, as is live or prerecorded in 1020p or 720p. Just the live 4k is the problem. Anyone else?
(I did come across a temporary work-around: Once you try to view a live 4K event that is subpar, go to: Roku Home>settings>system>software update>check now>OK then return to Roku home, select your app, for me You Tube TV and VOILA it's like it is supposed to be. The flaw in that is if you THEN tune to another program and GO BACK to the live 4k, it's washed out - not vivid!!!!!!!!)

Hi @wlasley Welcome to the Roku Community!
Thanks for sharing your experience with the picture quality on your Roku Ultra! I'm happy to assist you.
To help better, can you let me know if this issue is happening only on this channel? Also, it might help to update the app. Just highlight it, press the * button, and select the "Update" option.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks Jharra, the ONLY channels/programming with this issue is Live 4K through the Roku. (I stream through You Tube TV.) This is ALL the live 4K - so far, NBC, FoxSports, and ESPN. and i will try the * suggestion tonite on the 7:00 pm game on Fox: Maryland at Ohio State. Once I do that, if it comes in properly, if i change to another game or program and wish to return to live 4K will i have to do the * again or will that stick?
Thank you for your update!
To help us investigate this issue further, please provide the following information.
Looking forward to your response!
