Unable to setup 4K UHD output
I have a Sony 4K UHD TV, new Denon 4K AV receiver and, just installed, new audioquest Forest 48 HDMI cables (rated for 8K - 10K), but the best output available, per the Xfinity box, is only 1080p. The Xfinity box is PX013ANM. Our service is X1. Any help in getting the box to output UHD would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure what box that is but you need a 4k box like the XG1v4. I had to upgrade my XG1v3 box to get 4k. Someone with more knowledge on what your box is will chime in.

The setup video display page is super misleading. At the top of the page, it has HD (system capability), then HD XG1v3 and then 4K UHD. Why would it even display 4K UHD if the box does not handle 4K. the world may never know. Thank you for your response. I guess I will need to reach out to Xfinity/Comcast and get an actual 4K DVR box.

it sounds like you are looking at your TV's menu.

What you are describing is in the display settings on the box. It would read as you posted as mine did untill I upgraded the box. The last on is you TV max resolution. Mine now has 4KUHD then 4kUHD XG1V4 then TV brand and 4k UHD.

It is the Max your TV can do not your box to sum it up.

Okay, got my new 4K box, plugged it in and started activation/setup. Selected the language. That is as far as it got. Continuously receiving an RDK error 03009. Restarted the box, no luck, power restart no luck. Contacted support. They restart the box, no luck, ran some process that sends “signals” to the box for 1 to 1.5 hours, no luck. The box’s health is “green” per support. Note my old, non 4K box, still works just fine. They scheduled me for a service call that will cost $39-100. Yikes! Any thoughts/suggestions?
