ChatGPT
SUMMARY
8K video streaming requires significantly higher bandwidth than lower resolutions due to its 7680 × 4320 pixel resolution. Requirements vary by codec: H.264 needs 100-125 Mbps, H.265 requires 50-60 Mbps, and emerging H.266 could reduce needs to 40 Mbps. Additional factors like frame rate, HDR, and network stability affect requirements. A stable 100+ Mbps connection is recommended to account for network fluctuations and multiple device usage.

SUMMARY
8K video streaming demands very high bandwidth due to ultra-high resolution. H.264 codec requires 100+ Mbps while efficient H.265 reduces this to 50-60 Mbps. Minimum recommended speed is 50 Mbps but ideally 100+ Mbps for smooth playback. Data usage reaches 20-30 GB per hour. YouTube recommends 100 Mbps sustained speed. Live streaming requires 150-200 Mbps upload speeds. Currently accessible mainly to users with fiber or gigabit connections.

SUMMARY
8K video streaming requires minimum 50 Mbps bandwidth, with 80-100+ Mbps recommended for optimal quality. 8K has four times the data of 4K and sixteen times that of 1080p. Factors affecting bandwidth include resolution, frame rate, compression codecs (H.264, H.265, AV1), and multiple streams. Wired connections and capable routers are recommended for stability. Modern codecs like H.265 and AV1 are more efficient than older H.264.
