YouTube TV is adding an “enhanced” 1080p option for some channels.

The company confirmed the change in a reply on Reddit, saying it’s rolling out the enhanced bitrate option for “updated 4K-compatible streaming devices.” It doesn’t mention which channels support the new picture quality, so you might have to do a little channel surfing to find out.

YouTube Premium subscribers can already watch videos in 1080p enhanced on web, mobile, and TVs.
