@RXShorty  about the Google DNS Services: What should be the benefit of using the Google DNS services?
I've tried today again, but it's like russian roulette: Maybe I get a 4k resolution, maybe not. I'm always not 100% sure, if Stadia present me the game in 1080p or 2160p. Because of this, and another... See more...
I've tried today again, but it's like russian roulette: Maybe I get a 4k resolution, maybe not. I'm always not 100% sure, if Stadia present me the game in 1080p or 2160p. Because of this, and another problem with the 5.1 surround sound, brought me to the dicision to cancel my Pro subscription. Furthermore I've chatted with the Customer Care Support for a refund and they granted it.
@Taktiker   what happens when you wait a bit? Pause the game or similar. Does it change to 4k "On" ?
Like 3 month? This is not good. Hmmm, I hope that the CCU and Stadia use ipv6 and the nat is not a problem. @Chufuare there any known issues, e.g. server or CDN problems, for Germany?

Thank you @JohnZoidberg  Very good explained. In the meantime I've found this Stadia help entry [1]: If you plug your Chromecast into your TV: Chromecast Ultra plugged into a TV that supports HDMI eARC, and TV plugged into an AV receiver (connected to your 6-channel home speaker system) that also supports HDMI eARC. If you plug your Chromecast directly into your AV receiver: Chromecast Ultra plugged into an AV receiver that is connected to a 6-channel home speaker system. Ok, so the requirement is a eARC HDMI port at the TV. Otherwise I have no chance to get 5.1 running. Is that so? What are the requirements for a AV receiver? If I understand you and the help page correctly, the AV receiver doesn't have the eARC HDMI port requirement. But what must a AV receiver support? Multi-Channel PCM? Is there a more detailed documentation about the audio codecs of Stadia?   1: https://support.google.com/stadia/answer/9607891

@Taktiker  you're not alone. I've the very same problem. I'm a returning customer and pro subscriber since today. I have 100MBit DSL Internet connection and everything works perfectly. Even the stadia connection speed test agrees: "we expect that you'll have a high-performance gaming experience on Stadia" As I can see from your screenshot, you're playing from Germany, too. Maybe it's a location based or a country issue at the moment. Sometimes the connection goes green and 4k is "On". 2 minutes or so later, it switches to yellow or red but the 4k resolution remains. At least what my eyes tell me Last but not least, I'm a IT professional and I know what I'm doing. This is definitely not a problem in my household.

Ok, I have the same problem. Something is extremely fishy with Stadia and Dolby Digital 5.1. I've a Samsung UE49NU7179N. This TV has an optical out (toslink) and a HDMI ARC compatible port. My CCU is connected to this port and I've activated HDMI-CEC (anynet+), because ARC only works with activated CEC. Furtheremore I've connected my ~15 year old Yamaha AV Receiver over toslink with the tv. The receiver does not support DD+ and does not have any HDMI ports. As Sound output I select "Audio Out/Optical" at the TV. If I cast Netflix to the CCU, I can select the Dolby Digital Audio Stream and everything works as it should. I also see in the TV menu under Sound => Expert Settings, that the Digital Output Audio Format "Dolby Digital" was selected, not PCM (I could manually select PCM, though). With Stadia this will not work. After I've started a game, the connection status information show me, that 5.1 surround sound is on, but my AV receiver does not switch to Dolby Digital. In the TV menu I can't select Dolby Digital, only PCM is present. I've tried the to force the surround sound in the app to ac3 or ac3/eac3, but this will not help. The receiver always gets only the PCM stream and thats not a Dolby Digital Surround Sound at all. The Chromecast Ultra support Dolby Digital, e.g. in Netflix, but Stadia don't or only support other, non Dolby Codecs? I don't get it...

Maybe it's a location based or country issue at the moment. Sometimes the connection goes green and 4k is "On". 2 minutes or so, it switches to yellow or red but the 4k resolution remains. At least what my eyes tell me But right after the start it does not switch to 4k, because it says, 4k is not supported by the network.
