Netflix Will Stream House Of Cards Season 2 In 4K Ultra HD Format

High definition video lovers would be glad to hear that Netflix has confirmed on Sunday that it will start to stream the new 'House of Cards' season 2 and some wildlife documentaries in 4K ultra HD format. It is obligatory that you should have a 4K HD TV set in order to experience the sharpness of colors like Sony Bravia XBR - X950B or Samsung UN65F9000.  A UK based site hdtvtest has reported that they have tested the new 4K streaming on Samsung HU8500 and the video quality is great with detailed sharpness. For now, access is limited to TVs with Netflix and HEVC/H.265 decoding capabilities built in, Netflix spokesman Joris Evers said via email. “It's available everywhere Netflix is available and the first TV sets are hitting reviewer's desks and store shelves now,” he added.

In January at International CES, Netflix announced it would launch a 4K streaming app on new sets from Sony, LG Electronics, Vizio and Samsung Electronics that can decode those signals without specialized, separate streaming devices. At the time, Netflix did note that its initial 4K offering would launch sometime in the spring. The company didn't say how much content would grace its Ultra HD library early on, but Netflix did say that season two of House Of Cards, other new Netflix originals, as well as Breaking Bad would eventually be offered in the 4K format.

So finally the Netflix 4k Streaming is up for the new season of House of Cards and there will be more content coming up with high definition 4K in future.
