Seems like my Samsung TV app is being hit by stuff too, I had 5 unskippable ads and can't seem to get stable 1080p at 60fps any more despite gigabit fibre and cat6. Meanwhile getting 4k on my YouTube app on Android on WiFi.
Go figure.
YouTube is so desperate to fight this war that they're harming legitimate watchers meanwhile my rockpi running Android TV seems to keep running sTube just fine.
The nic on TVs tend to be awful. I can barely break 100mbps on my lg wired or wireless.
100mbps should be enough for a few 4K streams, and I imagine you’re not streaming more than one thing to your TV at any given time.
4k yes, 4k hdr is where it becomes limiting...from what I've read.
Perhaps, and I’ll readily admit my ignorance on this.
That said, I doubt the HDR overhead would be any larger than the equivalent baseline SDR content.
If my intuition is right, depending on other factors like compression you could still fit at least 2 streams on that bandwidth.
