STAMFORD, Conn. — Charter Communications’ Spectrum brand has broadened its 4K content availability on the Spectrum TV app to include compatible Apple TV 4K and Roku devices. Previously, the 4K content was accessible on the Xumo Stream Box, a collaboration between Charter and Comcast.
This expansion allows Spectrum TV customers using Apple TV and Roku devices to enjoy 4K content from networks like ESPN, Fox, and NBC. Elena Ritchie, senior vice president of video at Spectrum, stated, “With the addition of Apple TV 4K and Roku, more Spectrum customers can enjoy the clarity that 4K brings, all within the Spectrum TV App.” She emphasized that viewers can experience their favorite 4K live events with stunning picture quality, vibrant colors, and razor-sharp detail, enhancing their overall viewing experience.
In the coming weeks, Spectrum plans to offer the following 4K programming:
- ESPN College Football’s 4K Game of the Week, featuring select games in 4K throughout the season
- FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff, airing on select Saturdays during the college football season (check local listings)
- Syracuse vs. Notre Dame college football on November 22 at 3:30 p.m. ET on NBC
- Indiana vs. Purdue college football on November 28 at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC
Spectrum TV customers can locate available 4K content in a dedicated section on the home screen of the Spectrum TV App. Additionally, customers using a Xumo Stream Box will receive an on-screen prompt when viewing HD content that is also available in 4K, offering the option to switch to the 4K channel.
To access 4K content through the Spectrum TV App, customers must have a Spectrum TV package that includes ESPN, Fox, or NBC, which are broadcasting the 4K events. They also need a 4K TV connected to a Xumo Stream Box, Apple TV 4K (2nd generation and later), or a compatible Roku TV or Roku streaming device, using a 4K-supporting HDMI cable. The picture resolution settings on the device should be configured to 4K or 2160p, depending on the device.
