Play Store and Sony Movies doesn't recognize handset as HD device? - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

I couldn't find anything around this, but may have missed it. When I was on the Google Play Store and on Sony Movies, when you click on an HD movie it doesn't recognize the Ultra as an HD device. Is this because the handset is to new? Or did I miss something in settings?

New Google Play Movie Force Close

Just got pushed the new Market Movie app. Took one of the $.05 offers, launched the new Google Movie player and get a Force Close error immediately. Uninstalled the player, re-installed. No joy.
Works fine on my Bionic !
Thoughts?
Thanks

I haven't tried renting yet but when I try to play a video from my personal collection it says video cannot be played after about 3seconds of the video, I think that is an issue with the sony video player as that is what is used to launch it. Have u guys tried installing the stock Android video app, maybe that will work?
Google movies can only be played in the 'PLAY MOVIE' google app.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So when you click play it doesn't try and launch the video in the Sony Video player? It is strange that when you go to play a video from that app that is on the internal storage that it tries to launch a different app then if it has the video playing capabilities built in.
I haven't rented a Google movie yet to test that aspect myself, I was just commenting on the app not being able to launch internally stored video properly.
Correct. Google movies play within the Play Movie player only.
good to know
Good info to have. I have yet to rent a movie, but good to know ahead of time how to play it.
Its the google player that keeps force closing

[Q] Android Play Movie rentals through PS3

Has anyone given this a go? I want to rent HD movies from my phone on the Play Store, then watch them on the PS3 on the TV. I have looked around and it seems that you can log into YouTube via your PS3, at least you could back in 2009. You should be able to watch your Play Movie Rentals on YouTube, but can you get them through YouTube on the PS3 AND in HD?
I have hunted for this for a while, don't shoot me if it's already been asked and I've missed it.
Cheers.

[Q] No HD playback from Google play movies

Hi - whenever I purchase movies from Google play store the movies don't playback in high definition or download in hd. I have tried to speak to Sony and they've said it's Google's issue and Google are saying the exact opposite. In the meantime I'm left with SD format even though I paid for HD content. The movies play in HD on all my other Android devices. Anyone had the same problem.

[Q] HD Google Play Movies won't play in HD

Hello XDA,
I have a few movies purchased on my HTC one, and they won't play in HD (They were bought in HD). I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but it was working fine on Sense, however once I flashed the Google Edition RUU, they will only play in SD. This happens both when I try and stream it, and when I download it.. That's weird because I have my download set to HD. Anyone else have this problem? Maybe its a Movies update?
Thanks,
