Have you tried going into a/v settings on your Solo4k and changing the colourspace from Auto to RGB ?

I think you will need to send a bug report to vu+ then, as this is a driver issue.

I know that they fixed the same issue with Panasonic tv's (which is why that colour space option has appeared).

Nothing anyone else can do though i'm afraid.

Hi

You can also try it with a other HDMI Cable
I have an LG TV and no Problem a Friend of mine
has an Phillips TV and have the same trouble as you
he can solved it with a new HDMI 2.0 Cable may this will Help you too
Edit:
another thing is you can enable the Autoresolution this may also will Help

I don't have a Solo 4k but do have a Sony KD49X8309C TV and had problems with my Blue ray player using an old HDMI cable, Got a new HDMI 2.0 cable and it is now sorted.

Why not 2160p?
Now, it’s not as if TV manufacturers aren’t aware of the differences between 4K and UHD. But presumably for marketing reasons, they seem to be sticking with 4K. So as to not conflict with the DCI’s actual 4K standard, some TV makers seem to be using the phrase “4K UHD,” though some are just using “4K.”

To make matters more confusing, UHD is actually split in two — there’s 3,840 by 2,160, and then there’s a big step up, to 7,680 by 4,320, which is also called UHD. It’s reasonable to refer to these two UHD variants as 4K UHD and 8K UHD — but, to be more precise, the 8K UHD spec should probably be renamed QUHD (Quad Ultra HD). (Read: 8K UHDTV: How do you send a 48Gbps TV signal over terrestrial airwaves?)

just read this

The real solution would have been to abandon the 4K moniker entirely and instead use the designation 2160p. Display and broadcast resolutions have always referred to resolution in terms of horizontal lines, with the letters “i” and “p” referring to interlacing, which skips every other line, and progressive scan, which doesn’t: 576i (PAL), 480i (NTSC), 576p (DVD), 720p, 1080i, 1080p, and so on.

Now that there are 4K TVs everywhere, it would take a concerted effort from at least one big TV manufacturer to right the ship and abandon use of 4K in favor of UHD and 2160p. In all honesty, though, it’s too late. That said, the more important problem isn’t really the name; it’s where in the heck we can all get some real 4K content to watch. So far, it’s appearing in dribs and drabs on services like Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, and some proprietary hardware and software products from Sony. That’s not yet enough for 4K to really take off.

4K is 4096 x 2160 resolution and the Standard that most Displays (OLED,LED.LCD) are actually 3840 x 2160 which is exactly 4 times the resolution of HD 1920 x 1080p, 4K seems to be banded about because of the shorter name and obviously the 4K moniker but he actual final resolution that has been agreed on for TV broadcast and UHD Blu Ray is 3840x2160 so i very much doubt anyone will see an actual 4K image.

To the OP the Solo4K is actually HDMI 2.0a standard so supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) which some TV's support and some dont your model is the in between it supports HDR for Streaming only at the moment which means sony's streaming movie service and possibly some on Netflix later this year.

Might be an idea to check you are running the latest firmware for your TV and as Cokeaddict stated if left in AUTO mode the Solo4K tries to push through the enhanced Video level or HDR for deeper blacks and better colour, You may have to use it in 1080 mode until either sony or Vu+ address the issue
