Movistar updated its deco for a more current one with all kinds of functions for extensive use. The same, with very good results, is given as a tool for our most complete connection in order to adapt to all the users in the house and to the televisions themselves, whether or not they are Smart TVs. Here we show you how you can easily configure your Movistar deco.

The Movistar deco, the latest technology for your TV

We are talking about Movistar’s UHD deco for a connection to your television that allows various actions in order to reproduce the UHD/4K content broadcast on Movistar+. Yes indeed; As the blue company says, to have access to it you must have contracted fusion with fiber and have included the content package to be able to view them.​

Thus, if you purchased this service and want to configure your Movistar decoder, you must follow a series of steps that are very simple and that will allow you to enjoy all the channels provided by the telecommunications company.

At the same time, and as we will see below, it is important that you bear in mind that you must have Movistar’s own deco, the router, the HDMI cable, the Ethernet cable, the power cable at hand to make the relevant connections and finish with the settings.

How can we configure it?

Thus, thanks to this class of UHD decoders (wired or with WiFi connection) you can enjoy new digital experiences of entertainment, online shopping, travel and sports. The Living Apps are now available on Movistar television, accessed either from the Apps section of the Movistar+ menu or with the Movistar+ Voice Remote or through the Movistar Home device.

It is then that so that you can enjoy the content available in streaming, such as Netflix or Disney + integrated into the Movistar + menu, you need this UHD decoder. You can also enjoy the content from your app on mobile devices, desktop, Tablet or Smart TV. Now, how can we configure our decoder in the simplest way possible? Well, with these tips that we are going to present to you.

Better image and resolution

If we use the decoder to watch content on demand (Netflix, HBO, Movistar+ itself, etc.), we will see that sometimes the Soniablogger_0-1652351140388.png icon appears, just below the synopsis, along with other features that correspond to enjoyment of the content, as long as it is in that format…

But to which we do not have access. The easiest solution is to use the TV’s native apps for all this type of content. They are immensely better in video and audio quality and do not have any of the problems that Movistar’s UHD decoder does have.

color specification

One of the most important points of the UHD specification is color. If we have already played in 4K before, we will have noticed how the color is much deeper, with many more shades of color and greater richness. That’s because a much wider color triangle is used in the 4K era than at the time of the HD generation.

To do so, you will simply have to deactivate the HDR function, so our Movistar deco will wrongly convert all the content to HDR.

Configure Dolby Audio correctly

Dolby has been offering technologies for years that improve the user experience when watching movies, series or documentaries. In the case at hand, all digital technologies focused on improving audio and video are known as Dolby Digital. In audio, the most prominent are Dolby Audio and Dolby Atmos.

And there, also with this Movistar deco, the blue company offers content compatible with Dolby Audio in its catalog. If to differentiate content by image quality we must look at the HD and UHD icons (high definition and ultra high definition, respectively), to know if a content has Dolby Audio sound you will see the Dolby or Dolby Digital logo. So we can do it.

  • From the Movistar remote access the Configuration menu.
  • Open Dolby Audio.
  • Look for Dolby Audio Status.
  • Check Enabled.

Check that everything is in its place

With what we have seen above, we should have enough to have everything that our television can provide us with for maximum quality. You don’t have to touch anything on the decoder. Simply connect the device to the television and, this, to an audio equipment such as those mentioned before. But to find out if we have done everything right, Movistar + gives us a test video to do the final test. You will find it by following these steps:

  • Go to Configuration / Decoder Settings.
  • Then to Help and then click on Discover more features.
  • We go to Settings and, finally, you will find a section dedicated to Dolby and Dolby Audio.
