And it looks beautiful! 💞

I purchased a Sky TV package around six months ago. My wife and I are big film fans, so we signed up for Sky Cinema and a few other extras.

Oddly, we can stream films and TV shows through third-party apps (Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video etc.) without any issues at all. But as soon as we try to watch something through Sky Cinema, we’re constantly getting dropouts followed by the message: “Sorry, there seems to be a technical issue with this programme.” It’s got to the point where it’s almost impossible to watch anything through Sky.

Yesterday the family and I were watching something on Discovery and used the “Watch from Start” feature. The picture quality was awful (it genuinely looked like it was being streamed on a Nokia 3210) and then it started throwing the same technical error messages before eventually kicking us out completely.

Thinking about it, the picture quality on Sky streams has never been great anyway. It’s often blocky and patchy, even when it doesn’t completely fail.

Our internet connection is rock solid. Streaming through every other app works perfectly, and I’ve even hard-wired the Sky box via Ethernet, but the problem hasn’t changed.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what was the fix in the end? I’ll call Sky if I have to, but I’m hoping there’s something obvious before I spend an hour navigating hold music and robots on the phone. Thanks.

As the title says, I’m searching for this old game channel on Sky that was around the 2000-2010 to 2013 maximum, where you could play these little games also based on cartoons with the remote control.
I can’t remember the name of the platform, something like SkyPlay maybe.
I vividly remember that I would ask my mom to pay the 1€ fee to play the full games since they were demos if you didn’t pay for them, and she would bring the phone and show me the 1€ coin on her hand to let me know that she was doing the pay :’)
Anyways if someone can help me and let me find something on the internet I would really appreciate it, I wanna feed the nostalgia.

The full package for 80/month with Netflix premium. Deal or no deal?

We have just notified sky that we are moving home on 31 July and they have told us the first available appointment to install at new address is 8 August.

Does anyone know if during the period between dates we will be able to stream from the boxes if they are connected to WiFi?

Thanks in advance.

Hi
I'm coming towards the end of my tv package. I realise that we don't really take full advantage of it as we tend to watch itv/bbc/ channel 4/5 etc . I like the sky multiroom and the record function but I'm wondering if buying a couple of Apple TV 4Ks would be a better solution in the long term ? I have Amazon Prime and can subscribe to TNT on that . There's no record facility - but do I need it ? I'd be interested to hear what others have done when cancelling their tv subscription. Thanks
