Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

Trying to download The Sopranos S5 Ep6 but failing constantly. Just downloaded a channel 5 programme, no problem at all. 

This is a Sky issue, pure and simple. Sky: sort it!

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

Have had the exact same issues with American Rust as everyone else - fails every time! Have restarted everything so many times and it makes no difference. I can download anything else via my Q box but not this series.

 

Come on Sky.......just more reasons why I'm starting to think about leaving Sky and saving the huge monthly cost....

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

I managed to download two films from sky cinema. One at 22:30 last night and one this morning at 05:30. Both appeared to download without a problem. 
just tried to download Judas And The Black Messiah, (12:15hrs) and it failed. 

Get my broadband from BT but will eat my cat if it's a BT issue. 🙀

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

Having failed to download a sky cinema film, I have successfully downloaded a documentary from BBC. 

Is it possible for an internet server to discriminate against individual channels!

This has been going on for 2 weeks for me and I can't get any sky Atlantic or sky max if I manage to download it gets very pixelated

Who is your ISP?

@LGUser 

Why do you insist on asking about ISP's.

 

This is deflecting from the real issue which is with Sky content, not other channels.

BT I managed to get a couple of episodes of True Blood this morning but now it's gone again.

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

Was having the same issues but seems to be working after I connected my Q box via Ethernet...

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

You will likely find it will break again, I had already tested it via Ethernet and it made no differeance

Because most with this problem are using BT. I have no idea why it's mostly those with BT that are having this problem.

@Wacky7 because a Sky employee further back in the thread requested anyone having this problem state what the programmes were and who the ISP is

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

Seems to be working for me on WiFi again now. Well I've managed to get to 12% on an episode of The Wire and it just flashed up saying ready to watch....

 

Looks like Sjy may have fixed the issue?

Surely if it's a case of " mostly" and not all, then the BT thing is more likely a coincidence.   
what kind of fault could BT broadband have that intermittently stops me downloading a film from sky cinema but immediately allows me to download a film from BBC iplayer?

Not having a pop, just don't understand the logic.

Re: SkyQ Download Failed Item Unavailable

Maybe Sky did not pay their AWS bill or a certificate had expired... But just managed to Download two episodes of The Wire that was failing earlier today and last night
