Are there plans for 4K broadcasts in Singapore? It would be great to watch the premier league and F1 in 4K.
That's a shame! What does Singtel broadcast at if not 1080p?

All TV contents in Singapore are in 1080i and not even 1080P.
U forgot that we are still not even in 1080p.
When I first bought my 1st full HD TV in 2008. Mediacorp Broadcast HD in 1080i. I believe most of the source now are in 1080p just that our infrastructure such aa our starhub TV points are unable to support.
香港無線電視也已經進入4k超高清廣播嘍。。。In Korea, KBS is already in UHD.
This is something SG is lagging behind. National broadcaster doesn't feel a need to go into 4K because nobody watches their crappy drama except grandparents. They can't tell the difference between SD/HD/UHD and 4K. To them got image and sound means okey.
I personally feel that China has overtaken Taiwan in terms of the video image and sound recording for live or studio program. That "M" broadcaster if they can fight with Taiwan, don't talk about UHD.
Just my POV

China has 14b of population, Taiwan is 230 millions of population . Singapore ?
Sure, we can always has the best technology in the world. But cost is one and how many people will work in this line is another.
China has only 1 point 4 billion people, not 14 billion people. Taiwan has 23.5 million people estimated 2018.
My thinking is maybe another 15 years (a guess only) before any incremental improvement to the resolution of the video recording and its broadcast to local viewers. There is need to add on storage capacity when increasing the resolution to 4K for every tv show and other related work which I don't know about first hand. Also the ability of the broadcast equipment to allow for 4K broadcast. All this cost money.
Let me give u more details about our broadcast.
They are barely on 1080i resolution. But surprising no one mentioned that it's only in mpeg 2 format!!
Not even in mpeg 4 or avc/h264, let alone in hevc/h265!
Such antiquated format that existed more than 20 years ago
