Philadelphia digital code from UHD - Blu-ray Forum

sonyfanboy · 06-17-2020, 05:40 AM

I bought the 4k code from a seller and redeemed it on vudu thinking it would be available in 4k, but it’s not, neither is Movies Anywhere app. Itunes has 4K available but my code only ported in HD. Did I screw up, or is the digital code only hd at this time?

If ever in doubt always refer to the 4K spreadsheet. It's very helpful.

As for the code itself, I redeemed mine in MA and it retained 4K rights. I have it in 4K on both Amazon and iTunes. Do believe because it redeemed HD in Vudu it ported as such. While the code might have been a 4K code, MA only recognizes the format during transfer and not the code itself.

In short, yes, you screwed up.

Philadelphia is now UHD on Vudu. My copy was upgraded, since I redeemed it on MA. If you had initially redeemed on Vudu, where it was previously available in HD only--I'm not sure if it will retroactively give 4K rights now that it's been upgraded. As a precaution, just redeem all your Sony movies on MA, especially since Vudu is behind with Sony's 4K releases. 4K rights on MA will port as such, and will upgrade the movie if it wasn't previously available as 4K.
