I've been working in HDMI receivers and this is what I've got in
a comment:

1282        
/*                                                                                                       

1283          * Update current VIC: When transmitting any
extended video format                                       
1284          * indicated through use of the HDMI_VIC field in
the HDMI Vendor                                        
1285          * Specific InfoFrame or any other format which is
not described in                                      
1286          * the above cases, an HDMI Source shall set the AVI
InfoFrame VIC                                       
1287          * field to
zero.                                                                                        

1288          */

This was directly taken from the spec, can't remember exactly
were though.

So, the VIC in AVIIF must be set to 0 and the HDMI_VIC field in
VSIF shall be set to the HDMI 4k VIC.

Best regards,
Jose Miguel Abreu
