I don’t want to upgrade to Sky Q. I cancelled when I realised that I would not be able to use magic

I don’t want to upgrade to Sky Q. I cancelled when I realised that I would not be able to use magic eye with Sky Q. I cancelled within the cooling off period. Now my TV displays dialogue box “your viewing card is unauthorised” is there any solution or anyway I can work the magic eye with Sky Q

You'll need a replacement Viewing Card to continue to use Sky+. Give Sky a call.

The magic Eye as such won;t work with SKY Q - SKY Q has no RF inputs/outputs

I am guessing the magic eye itself is less of an issue than the fact you can't watch on a 2nd TV using the RF cable - The Bluetooth Remotes on SKY Q do have a very good range & I can use mine any any room and even outside in my read garden

Some people have had success with 3rd methods such as HDMI spliters or eben HDMI to RF converters but I think they can be a bit Hit & Miss

You may wish to read some notes I have made for people considering switching from SKY +/HD to SKY Q

SKY +/HD to SKY Q
