Getting around 36Mbps from my BT Line
Watching BT Sport Ultimate on my 4K Firestick with the latest version 1.03, the picture keeps freezing for about 5 seconds at a time with the “loading message” on screen ? Understood it should work fine provided you had at least 30Mbps ?
Also were yesterdays Ultimate games broadcast in Dolby Atmos as my soundbar didn’t display Atmos for either game ?
It needs about 30mb - so running tight on 36mb as anything else using the internet at the same time will reduce the available bandwidth.
Dispite what BT say - most of the Premier League coverage has NOT been in Atmos recently.

I don’t get any buffering/freezing from Netflix or Apple TV 4K HDR/Dolby Vision Dolby Atmos sources.
I guess they must use a more efficient streaming Codec, wonder if BT will be using a different codec anytime soon ?
I would get my speed increased but 38Mbps is the max I can get.
Netflix streams at a maximum of around 15Mpbs - the quality of BT's Ulitmate channel is better. Sport usually needs more bandwidth.

Ok thanks for replying, hopefully the buffering/freezing will be resolved in the new year.
