My sky Q box records random programs and films ive not highlighted to record, any ideas why?

[SteveM58]

This has happened quite a few times now, my sky q box records random programs or films, last night I recorded 2 items at 9pm, this morning there was an animated film  recorded at 1.40am, I don't  record ghose sort of films and I didn't set anything to record after midnight, as I checked before I went to bed.

Has anyone any ideas what is going on here?

Hi @SteveM58 

Sky can push content to the Q boxes.

This feature can switched off in the hidden menu.

To enter hidden menu press Home and navigate down to Settings but do not select Settings.
With Settings highlighted press 0 0 1 Select.
Switch off pushed on demand on the right

Hi, thank you for that, it was switched on, I've now disabled it.
