SKY Q Mini confusion over how many

Lstry — Tue, 10 May 2022 10:17:29 GMT

OK so i have the 1TB Sky Q box in my living room and a Sky Q Mini in one of my bedrooms now i am wishing to add a second Mini in another bedroom now my confusion is if i add another mini does this mean i could only watch 2 at the same time ie front room(main q Box)and bedroom(mini) or can i watch my main sky Q box and say the 2 in the bedrooms at the same time so in theory this would be 3, Q main box and 2xmini's

hope this makes sense

thank in advance

Hi @Lstry

If the 1 TB box that you have is the original non UHD one then you can only use one mini at a time.

With all other Q boxes you can use two minis simultaneously.

See the following link

See which Q box you have

@Lstry it depends on what 1TB box you have

If you have the older non UHD 1TB box then you can only watch on your main box and 1 mini at the same time.

If you have the newer 1TB UHD box then you can watch on your main box and 2 minis at the same time

hi @Lstry

Further to the replies by @Laing1 & @oldfella should you need to check which box you have look in :

Home - Settings - System Info - Hardware Version

The original 1TB non UHD box shows as Hardware Version 32Cxxx

(edit : This info shows in the Link @oldfella added)
