octagon sf8008 is fine here, I would expect any respectable / modern 4K STB to be playing OK.

some other off brand / cheap chinese STBs maybe not so much?

fyi,  Has nothing to do with the frame rate.

The resolution and frame rate has not changed.

 

The difference is that previously NASA UHD used 8 bit color depth.
Now they are using 10 bit color depth.

At least that is what we see on 127w.

 

So 8 bits = 2^8(bits)^3 (3 primary colors) =     16,777,216 colors

10 bits = 2^10 (bits)^3 (3 primary colors) = 1,073,741,824 colors
