SkySports Darts UHD issue

Anyone else having issues with the Sky Sports Darts UHD picture this afternoon? Picture is so washed out and very dull.

 

Doesn't help half the cameras aren't UHD, but today is significantly duller and more washed out than normal. Also the same on the main event feed too.

 

Thanks

Yeah, I've also noticed this. Colors are totally off.

Re: SkySports Darts UHD issue

Yes exactly the same here.  

Incidentally, why have they made Sky Darts a UHD channel if the cameras aren't??

Got the same issue and noticed a similar problem on a couple of PL football games before Christmas.

Agreed.

 

Had switched to watching in HD as it was definitely the UHD HDR feed as it was washed out on 401 and 407.

Re: SkySports Darts UHD issue

It's looks awful again tonight on main event UHD. Really dark and washed out.  It's  much brighter in the non-HDR HD channel.
