So I have a 5.1 system from Samsung and I have a bluray receiver where the system is connected via now I have a question I do not use the receiver but only to bring the sound to TV I then watch movies via Netflix over the fire tv makes a difference whether I have a bluray kuck from sound film quality or it is the same
Does it make a difference whether I now have a bluray kuck of sound film quality or it is the same
… When it comes to sound (audio), it doesn't make much difference today whether you watch a film in Full HD 1080p from Neflix or from a Blu-Ray, but with the image quality (video) it does.
Streaming services usually only provide Full-HD films with a reduced "average, (eg 9000k) and maximum video bit rate", which is just so high that complex scenes (eg fire plus camera movement) are not boxed, including but the depth of field suffers for small objects or objects in the distance.
In order to prevent the file from being loaded too often or being reloaded too often when playing a film via an online connection, these video bit rates must always be selected so that, together with the audio bit rate, customers who e.g. Only have a DSL 16000 connection that can see the Full-HD film without jerking or reloading (film hangs).
It is different with the Blu-ray, because despite the same H264 video codec, very high video bit rates (sometimes up to 32000k or even higher) are used, so that every single frame of a film has the same image quality, regardless of whether it is moving quickly with fire, or a slow night scene.
The "normal eye of the beholder" can't immediately tell the difference between a film on Blu-Ray and Netflix if the bit rates are not chosen too low, for this you would have to have test laboratory conditions, i.e. 2 identical devices - all the same, etc.
