Though PS4 supports 4K movie streaming, not all 4K videos are accepted by the PS4. Currently, most 4K movies are recorded in MXF/RAW/XAVC/XAVC-S format, while PS4 supports .mp4 files best. That means, although you can play 4K videos on PS4, there aren’t many 4K MP4 video source available for you. What a pity!
