- We compare the picture quality of Microsoft's new Xbox One X console vs a dedicated 4K Blu-ray player (the Panasonic UB900) in terms of Ultra HD Blu-ray playback, after a firmware update has fixed the console's elevated black level for HDR video output.

For those still wondering - the issue has been fixed a few months ago. I just googled to see if they've released a firmware fix since this video has come out and apparently MS stopped doing the ycbcr to rgb conversion in a firmware released a few months ago.
Link to the xbox changelog?
You are right, I noticed this only recently. I play all my Blu-rays on the XBOX ONE X now without hesitation. Great Blu-ray player.
Are you being truthful cause I see no firmware update info regarding the color decoding issue on Google. What was your source?
Was just going to ask.
It definitely looks way better now, and on my X, I will only be playing Gears, Halo, and anything that will look beautiful, but most other games will play playing on my S. What's cool i the S bluray player would freeze while forwarding, and the X does not do tat at all.
This dude does the best reviews!
He need to work on his humor though, he use to be funnier! 😂
This Dude need banana
Any idiot can do a "great review." It's the accurate information coming from someone who knows their field of work that makes for a "great review." THIS review does NOT match that standard.
The only time we will ever hear anyone thank God for two copy's of Power Rangers.
Notyourtype good shit... lol
I actually liked the movie way more than I thought I would.
HDTVTest ... Thanks for the excellent comparison and breakdown of the differences in capabilities. Do you think the decoding mismatch internally of the Xbox One X can be resolved with another update to the firmware/OS? Or is this a hardware limitation in the way Xbox is engineered?
Love it when he reminds us how he "proudly" owns two copies of power rangers lol. Nice vid as always 👍
Is there anyway you can reach out to Microsoft on the consumers behalf about this issue?
Is this something they can fix via firmware?
Thank you for exposing the decoding issue of the XBox One X. Have you approached Microsoft regarding this issue, so they might fix it in an upcoming FW update?
I just found your channel yesterday. Your videos are awesome, subscribed!
Have they released the patch for the Xbox one X 4K player yet? I heard they will release an HDR and another patch to make the player look better on screen.
Vincent Teoh - NOT Professional Bow tie calibrator :D Good video again and the Xbox One X seems a decent 4K player for casual movie watchers
thats the way i like reviews..., simple, clear, formal and without bullshit. there is another guy called sakitech that has a similar style but less technical. congratulations... great channel.
Vincent Teoh I got a problem with my Sony X900E and X1X. There is some strange pink banding/posterization happening all sky boxes during all 4K HDR Blu ray discs. I followed all your settings clearly. Does the X1X simply have more sky banding or is it part of the X900e?
Can you please make a follow up video on this ? Microsoft fixed the issue almost an year ago, but people are still getting mislead by watching your video
Only for the Xbox one x or did it was it fixed for the ok me s?
Thats a lie my xbox one x is connected to my samsung q90r tv and it doesnt recognize it as a 4k tv. No matter what i do the xbobx doesnt work right with the tv and i am stuck streaming 4k from my tv. The xbox wont even let me select 4k resolution it says the tv doesnt support it which is a lie. Xbox is starting to show me their bad side its called trash also streaming from my tv the colors and video look way better than getting it from my xbox
@@aliaga936
Probably don't have UHD colour turned on. It's called something different from 2019. Google it
@@peanutbutterjelly1481 I figured what happend its the Xbox total trash so I have the q90r sound bar which has dolby atmos and to turn on dobly atmos sound on the Xbox you have to change the setting in the Xbox to hdmi from auto when u do this it will not allow u to choose 4k resolution but u can turn on the dobly atmos sound however it doesn't work nothing works no sound comes out. Eventually I fixed it by reseting to default settings and boom 4k works again how ever the dobly atmos sound doesn't work. How ever when I use the apps from my TV the dolby atmos sound works Xbox is total trash it's all about pushing there next system garentee you this will be fix for the Xbox series x also a lot of review about the Xbox not being about to read the color code correctly for hdr content and think this is why I see better colors using the apps straight from the TV. Just my 2 cents have a great day everyone stay healthy
@@aliaga936
I'm using an Xbox for 4k movies. Is there much of a picture quality difference between an actual 4k player over the Xbox. No one's talking about it in reviews I've see it's all about colour and how HDR on Xbox is too bright and washed out but nothing about picture quality.
Star wars on 4k looks the same as the 2020 blu ray copy from the box from the 4k version. The comparison video's are 4k vs 2011 blu ray but the 2020 hd blu ray picture quality look basically identical in every way including HDR. It's close to impossible to see aactual difference between UHD 4k an HD blu ray 2020 version that is. So I've held back on getting a Panasonic 820 player as I'm just not sure about picture quality difference as I've never heard anyone speaking about it. Just colour. Even this vid was only about colour touched a pinch on HD blu ray but no 4k picture quality differences only stupid colour
Very informative, I'll have to purchase that disc! Quick question, is there a way for Microsoft to fix that colour decoding issue, or is it a chip based decoding that can not be fixed?
Great video but 1 question. Can the Panasonic play 4k video games? mmm for a console with the last update is a very VERY good quality way to see a film. Thanks for your hard work showing us this.
Do you know if this has improved since the video? i have bought a LG b9 and wonder if the xbox one s would be ok for uhd 4k player now in 2020 :)
Hey HDTVTest did microsoft fix the RGB color issues in the Xbox UHD Bluray Player? If so, can it now compete with other 4k bluray players?
Very informative. Thank you.
We currently own a Blu-ray player and we're not using it as much anymore because we're streaming movies now. Plus, I don't have a 4K TV. Maybe way down the road.
I've a matching Panasonic Plasma TV and a Panasonic Blu-ray player. Picture's quite good. However, I'm sure, if I calibrate it using a real good calibration disc, the quality of the picture will definitely be improved.
Can you recommend a disc I can use to calibrate my Panasonic TV and Blu-ray player?
Thank you.
Have there been any 4k HDR improvements on the Xbox One X since this video was made?
You explain in a very easy and pedagogical way! Thanks!
Hello Vincent. Can you confirm the color accuracy has been fix on current firmaware update?
Thanks, I needed this comparison video.
Love from USA Vincent. Best reviewer of all things 4k and love the humor you insert into each video. 😁
Was this update only applied to the Xbox One X and not the S series? I recently purchased a Samsung Q6F and tried watching a 4k version of Black Panther on my Xbox one S. I noticed that during dark scenes subtitles and certain lights would make the scene extremely washed out. UHD Colors is enabled and tried local dimming on both low and high settings. Thanks.
Hi Vincent - Do you think the color output is something Microsoft could fix? It seems to me like it could.
In that case, you should contact them and see if they can get it corrected. Mike Ybarra is very active on Twitter, perhaps you can link him this video. @XboxQwik
To add to this:
Based on your findings, would you recmmend keeping the YCC422 option on or off?
Second, for the bit depth selection, for an LG B7, would you recommend 8, 10 or 12bit?
Thanks!
Great information, thanks, very useful stuff
Could you do a test for me? Do you have a way to test the Xbox and see if there is more latency on its output while in 4K as a posed to 1080. I know most cases the panels processing adds more latency in 4K. I’m just curious if the Xbox is slower.
To date (05/20/2019) this problem was fixed with an update? someone knows?
I'd like to see you review the Panasonic UB900 vs the Oppo 205. Which one is better?
Hi Vincent, I use a Xbox one S for 4k Blurays and noticed that if you turn HDR off the normal Bluray looks much brighter and gives a better picture than the 4k disc. Is this normal?
Always excellent videos. I have a question..... I can't seem to find a definitive answer to whether or not you should have all of your pieces in your AV set up doing 4K upscaling or should you only have one Doing the heavy lifting?
In my situation I have a 4K player that upscales, an AV receiver that upscales and LG projector that upscales to 4K.
Tyvm
4k blu-ray and 4k tv trash go back to 1080p blu-ray with 1080p tv!!
If you're a gamer you have hit the jackpot with a Blu-ray player that is almost as good as the best, AND plays games for a hundred dollars less than the machine that only plays movies.
Precisely what I was thinking. The playback issues are negligible to an everyday general viewer and then top it off with a superior gaming console and it's really a no-brainer purchase if someone's in the market for both.
As annoying as it may be that the xbox installs the whole game to the Harddisk, it will prolong the longevity of the drive. For example the Playstation 2 and original Xbox was not recommended to watch movies on, since it wore down the optical drive.
Need actual games to play on ot too though...not just a few first person shooters, which are a dime a dozen.
Joseph Bentley There are over three thousand games at last count if I’m remembering right.
Joseph Bentley Red Dead bro. Sorted.
I love your reviews, Vincent. I had one comment, which you might be able to help with.....
This comparison holds true if you have an hd linker... however, most people (myself included) don't want to fiddle with hd linkers... How does the hdr10+ image of the xbox one x compare to the dv image of the panasonic?
great video but i think all the issues with the xb1x are now finally fixed as of june 2018 can you do a retest for the current firmware?
This issue has not been resolved, the information given about it being updated via firmware is incorrect. I tested personally using the Spears and Munsil HDR benchmark and the color space is still decoded incorrectly for Rec.2020 (HDR). The color space for Rec. 709 (regular HD) is decoded correctly.
Apparently this fault has been addressed in the spring update which is currently available to anyone that has signed up to the Xbox insider app.
It would be great if you could do a follow up video to test if this is the case or not.
Thanks, James.
Forbes reported this but I would like a Vincent update too :)
A very knowledgeable presentation 👏.
Nice job Vincent. You should do this all the time so companies like MS are more responsive to updates or perhaps they should hire you for your expertise!
Excellent videos Sir. I have the Xbox One X and the Sony X700 4k Dolby Vision blu ray player. When I run HDR on the Xbox one X I feel the quality is actually better then the X700 with Dolby Vision turned off.
Is there any chance you will review the Sony UBP-X700 anytime soon? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this player. I'd also like to see a comparison against the Oppo 203. Some people feel it's as good.
Great review..................VERY informative and I like your presentation
Great review ! I have the X since his launch, so today it's one year later and I'm definitively so happy to buy this console ! I'm happy to see the beauty of videogames on it (I play FM7 today, it's always a flagship of the XB1X for me ! So many details, so many colours, so beautifull it is ... ), 4K is excellent when it's native like games like Warhammer Vermintide 2 (I compare it on Xbox One original and it's so much better on X ! All the details we see ... amazing !) or others and games with dynamics resolution like BF1 or BFV are clearly great ! I have a Sony XE9005 49" (for my bedroom !) and I occasionnaly watch movies but I never watch an ultra 4K Bluray (but I just recently buy Dunkerque and I'm impatient to see the result !) but I really happy to know I have a great device for that ! XB1X today is clearly the best console you can buy. For those who have a 4K TV or want to buy it, clearly the XB1X is the best choice you can make to complete your installation for 4K content. It will be the next gen console but only in 2020 or 2021, so 2 at 3 years to wait, a XB1X stay a great purchase today. You play on console in the best condition and you have a great 4K Player !
Great job explaining!
Reality is, if you don’t have two versions right in front of you and someone hasn’t pointed out which is the correct display, you will never know as you won’t have any reference material to compare it to. I watched Star Trek Beyond on my X last night, it was a sharp image and colourful with inky blacks on my Oled E6. Dolby Atmos through my amp sounded incredible. Just set it to allow the amp to decide. Oppo high price is not worth it.
What I also find is interesting is Steve over at AVForums when he tested it, said the same thing, however the difference is so small you wouldn’t notice. Guess it’s a matter of opinion.
But still, the truth is that your experience wasn't accurate and like it should look. To me knowing that is enough so I couldn't enjoy it.
MadFinnTech but if I brought you into a room, had my OLED with both a Xbox One X along with an Oppo, put a film on, told you it was being played on the Oppo but actually it’s the Xbox One playing it, your telling me you would spot the difference and no longer be able to enjoy it? No, I didn’t think so either 😉
As Vincent said, you wouldn’t really know unless you have another version right next to it to compare. I’ve seen both side by side and it’s being really nit picking. A dedicated player of course is designed for one thing but it’s not worth the price difference in my opinion if you do have an Xbox already. Naturally if you have no interest in games you get a dedicated player. Xbox One X does give a superb picture, plenty of pop and colour.
No person on the planet would notice unless they have the equipment to check.
Same here ! I won't shell out another 600 euros just to get 5% more accurate colors in 2% of scenes. Color management is a big hassle anyway since problems can come from : camera used on set, settings during post-production,BR encoding, internal player, hdmi cable, image processing of the tv etc.
The X does 99% of what a high-end dedicated player does and then it's still the most powerful console ever made to date, all this for a measly 500€.
Without the same exact TV's side-by-side nobody couldn't tell the difference anyway.
Alexis Pillon there are plenty of videos running a film using the Xbox and say a Sony to see he difference, I couldn’t, it was too difficult on a moving screen. Might pick up subtle differences if I pause the frame.
For what Microsoft give, it’s an incredible bit of kit. I do find mine is pretty silent, not heard when playing films or games. My PS4 Pro on the other hand is seriously loud sometime. Kudos to Microsoft, brilliant value.
Yeah I don't buy Blu-Ray's to pause every minute in order to appreciate the color accuracy.. And when you factor in the ever changing viewing conditions (TV settings, time of the day, source player) I'd say it's pretty pointless to search for the ultimate PQ if you also need a gaming console anyway.
I find it very silent too, trying the Forza 7 demo I got a good laugh by muting the sound and realizing that the One X was dead silent. A very good kit (console, multimedia player, Netflix/Twitch/UA-cam center, 4K player) for a pretty sweet price. Enjoy your console man :)
Do you know if Microsoft is aware about ycbcrrgb issue, and if this can be addressed with an update?
Only channel I watch anymore for tv tech... Vincent nails it Everytime..I was wondering how to use the color decoding bars..now I gotta go home and try it on mine..👍
Great review. Thanks. 👍🎬
To me, as an occasional 4K Blu-Ray user. The Xbox One X is good enough. I will have it on my wish list.
Agreed.
It's really a decent 4k Player and the issues he mentions when comparing picture quality to the standalone can be adjusted using brightness, colour and other settings on your TV to atleast get a little bit closer to what the standalone put out.
Krille's Garage “good enough” lol
chillian321 As these TVs have been calibrated, adjusting them for the XOX blu-ray is going to mess it up for everything else.
Its why I'm getting the One S. My tv doesn't do dolby vision. So I can live without it. Theres literally 2 games I'm interested in, that aren't on pc. So it will really just be a media machine for me.
Have you tried switching tv’s for that test just to be certain it’s not one of the Samsung’s with an issue. Sorry had to ask.
Scott H its meant to be stacked in a AV rack. Most components are usually the same width
I'm getting a Sony 60-inch 4K TV. I already have a 'regular' 1080p Sony blu-ray player. Aside from differences in colour and contrast, will my regular blu-ray discs look as 'sharp' on my regular blu-ray player when played on the 60" 4K TV (assuming they are upscaled, as well), or should I purchase a UHD blu-ray player? If there is very little difference in 'sharpness' (on a 60" 4KTV from my regular blu-ray player), I don't really want to purchase a UHD blu-ray player, nor have any intention of buying 4K discs in the future. I can see doing that if I had a 70", or bigger, television. Thanks!
tweeted Mike Ybarra and Phil Spencer this video... hope they release a fix for this
May you do a Playstation 4 Pro and Slim test, please? I'm curious about that since I'm planning to buy one.
Thank for this. Now I can prove or at least support my claims to certain people why you should buy a dedicated player if you want to enjoy an accurate presentation of 4K UHD Blu-ray movies.
awesome info thank you !
You really should do a follow video Vincent.With the Firmware patched that fixes this issue.
That would clear up some confusion.
Thank you
So what ur saying is the Panasonic is better right??
This is a confusing video. Has the color decoding issue also been fixed with the latest update? Or will this remain an issue due to hardware restraints?
I only noticed this on my Samsung today after having it for over a year and using it for UHD blurays with a One S and now X, but mine changes picture settings not just based on the input and special viewing modes like game or HDR+, but also the type of input it is getting.
I calibrated the picture with the little tool built into the Xbox dashboard, then put in a movie and noticed it looked terrible. But the tv had defaulted to different settings for 24p playback.
I wouldn't be surprised if the Xbox has some issues, but for me the issue is the tv changing settings on its own.
Xbox One X tells me that I am watching a HEVC video while playing blu-ray disc. How’s this the case?
Hey Vincent 👋 will LG be updating their lineup of 2017 Oled’s with HDR10 PLUS +?
Quote from xbox:
"We have resolved issues with RGB colors when displaying in 4K HDR mode when playing a UHD disk"
Please see source below for a statment of fix to the 4k disc playback RGB issues. This is update 1804. Use cntrl-f on your browser and type "Display" for the section with the statement.
news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/03/16/new-preview-delta-1804-system-update-3-16-18/
Note: I believe the way to verify if this update (1804) has been applied to your console is go to:
Settings>System>Console info> and read under "OS version". Mine says:
10.0.17134.4056
(rs4_release_xbox_dev_1806.180626-1359)
Thus, I assumed that because it is from the 1806 build it should contain fixes from 1804 build.
Is it possible to fix the Xbox X colour processing with a firmware download.
@Steve Jones but have they? One year has passed. It looks fine to me, but it would be nice to know. But I don't have the tools
@@cordia96 Same
Been patched a while ago
@@chiefmegadeth sweet
But on the color decoding I didn't see any colors blinking in the mid on the Xbox x
Can HDR improve with further firmware updates?
hallo! please make a test x box one x with dolby atmos update with one 4k player sonyUBP-X800 or Panasonic UB900.thanks
I believe the Xbox has been updated by a firmware patch for the colour accuracy problem. Can anyone confirm this makes a difference or improves the picture quality? Thanks
Does the Oppo 203 also have the same colors as the Panasonic??
Also I've seen videos advising to let the TV do upscaling but my TV doesn't seem to upscale FVD or standard BLU Ray. When I set the Sony blu ray player to output the original picture for a DVD , the picture is nothing but a blurred mess even with super resolution set to high. When I set the blu player to upscale the picture is much sharper.
They could fix the colour space conversion issue, I assume?
I liked the review. It is good to know that the update really helped the Xbox One X 4K Blu-Ray performance. It sounds like they have a bit more to go to make it perfect, but they still can. I have not played a 4K movie on it yet but I did just buy Furious 7 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 so it won't be long.
What about X vs S, is the 4k playback the same?
Thank you so Much Hopefully there would be an update to fix the colors.
I realize this is an ignorant question but as someone without Wi-Fi who just purchased their first 4K TV can I watch 4K blu-rays on my Xbox one without Wi-Fi?
Well I use my Xbox x mostly for games I would like to get a decent 4K Blu-ray player what do you guys recommend?
Thank you for this very informative and intelligent comparison. It helped understanding real difference between Xbox One X 4k blurry play and that of a dedicated 4k blurry player.As result it helped in making a proper decision in deciding whether or or to buy a separate 4k bluray player next to a Xbox One X.
Thank You Mr Vincent good job again
Are they any differences between a XBOX ONE S and X for the UHD BluRay Quality?
i use a denon 3313 bluray player and its clarity is oddly massivly higher than the 4k player in the xbox 1x. the clolours on the 1x were awful but i was mostly expecting a sharper image. why is the image softer? everything is set up correctly. How does the oppo 4k player stand against a high end bluray player?
Hi got a question now I have burned some windows files of videos and pictures on a blu-ray disc. Now my Dvd player can read them But the Xbox one does not?. I know you can connect a usb in Xbox but why not a blu-ray disc? that has files on?.
Could you explain the use of the Linker on the XBox One X?
I don't think you mentioned anything about dolby vision - which the bluray app doesn't support. It would be interesting to revisit this in light of the next gen consoles to see if they will support it.
4k blu-ray and 4k tv trash go back to 1080p blu-ray with 1080p tv!!
I'm so jealous that you own TWO copies of Power Rangers!!! lol... Great Content, Thank you..👍

Looking for a comparison for 4k Blu-ray disc on Xbox one X and buying a movie in UHD on Microsoft store.
Does anyone have any info if buying from store is as good???
Thank you very much. You have explained a great deal to me about xbox and 4k blu ray players. I can now stop stressing about it lol
Between the Sony UBP-X1009ES and the Panasonic DMP-UB900, which is better
What if your tv is set to game mode then how does this effect the movie image? should u change the tv from game mode when u watch a movie?
SabzilaTV yes you should...especially if your tv is calibrated because game mode turns all of the video processing off like de-judder and de-blur as well as a lot of other functions that make viewing movies better.
Vincent please do an update comparison for this with the Series X/PS5 and newer Bluray player.
4k blu-ray and 4k tv trash go back to 1080p blu-ray with 1080p tv!!
HDTV any idea who xbox series X and PS5 will go as blu-ray players ? Have you had any indication these consoles will have the same issue you discuss here ?
4k blu-ray and 4k tv trash go back to 1080p blu-ray with 1080p tv!!
Which of the two systems are better at upscaling? I have a few blu rays like Gravity and Avatar and currently playing it on an xbox one x and OLED tv- but not sure if its worth replacing the one x for a ub820
4k blu-ray and 4k tv trash go back to 1080p blu-ray with 1080p tv!!
should you only use bluray discs on this?
oh yes, but cab we play games on the panasonic too ??
Please give us an update with the new patch
Does Sony Playstation work same like xbox. Is it a good option to but Playstation for movie viewing content and casual gaming
I'm slightly drooling over Xbox One X. I have the S currently so will live with that until the price comes down. Still tempted though!
Would be interested in MS's official opinion on this. @HDTVtest maybe you could reach out to them?
Also have you (or will you) test Panasonic 58EX750 that I have. Would be interested in your opinion. Obviously amoled is better but more expensive. As a new viewer not sure if you test LED TVs too
The 4k player in the Xbox One s/x is a Philips By the way.
xgvmx just the transport is. All of the processing is done by the Xbox soc
Has a Firmware update since addressed this?
You should do a new one now that the 4K player issues have been fixed for the Xbox.
Chad i never had that issue
Chad where do you hear me say the problem doesn’t exist? I literally only said that i dont have that problem. Get the fuck out of here with that negative mentality
Chad you got a crappy one. I never had an issue with 4k Blu-ray
Never had an issue. Just because you have a shit one or have set it up wrong, doesn't mean the one x is a crap 4k player
My xbox one x won't play 4k discs either. I put one in and it starts a continuous restart cycle that won't stop unless I unplug the power.
Great video! I'm not sure mine is working correctly, as I'm new to 4K Blu-rays and wasn't particularly wowed by the picture. I switched between a 4K Blu-ray copy of Fast & Furious 8 and a regular 1080p Blu-ray copy and found that the 1080p copy looked...pretty much the same. In fact I felt like it looked slightly better. Obviously it's being upscaled but I would expect the 4K copy to be the clear winner there. The same thing is happening with UHD Netflix, I'm not really seeing any jump from the regular HD content.
Have a friend who is having the same experience, but I can't find anything online about this particular problem, which has me worried! TV is all set up correctly and the console shows that it's all good for 4K and HDR etc., so it's as if there's a problem with the way the console is playing video, because games are most definitely in 4K and look stunning.
Hoping it's not just my eyes and that it's something they sort at some point because right now I'm not seeing the benefit of the 4K discs!
Keith Thorburn It must be your Tv model/brand and size.
Your "4K" UHD Bluray looked the same as the 1080p Bluray, because it is: realorfake4k.com/my-product/fate-of-the-furious/
Fact is the list of movies actually mastered in 4K is incredibly small. Hollywood absolutely hates 4K, bigger files, the potential for quadrupling your rendering time on special effects (even though no movie actually has 4K VFX yet... EDIT: Excluding all the Christopher Nolan movies, that man is amazing).
It seems like half the people making movies all think 4K is the devil and they are actively trying to sabotage it.
It's incredibly sad, sickening even, because if we boycott anything that isn't actually mastered in 4K they'll say "4K is a failure" but if we keep buying 2K masters on "4K" Disks you actually aren't getting what you paid for.
Hopefully consumers can figure this out well enough to mostly just buy movies mastered in 4K, and just get the $5 DVD otherwise.
Thank goodness for Christopher Nolan: ua-cam.com/video/tpqC2nRfJp4/v-deo.html
Ah, that Fake 4k site is a real eye opener! The closest thing I have to a 'Real' 4k film at home is Logan (which that site has down as 'nearly' 4k), tried that last night and it looked great. I guess I was expecting a more eye-popping difference and picked the wrong film to test it out on (F&F8).
There was another update for the Blu-ray app though (after the HDR fix) so there's even a chance that has made a difference. I tried Ghost In The Shell (which is another 'fake' one according to that site) and the colours looked fantastic, so I wouldn't be surprised if MS have pushed out more improvements.

what is this problem
They supposedly fixed this, can you do a a 2018 update?
Can anyone confirm if the hdr color decoding issue has been resolved?
