@les7264green Sky signature comes with Boxsets.in SD as standard you may be trying to download the programme in HD

The default download setting is HD so try changing the format to download in SD

you can change the default to SD by Pressing Home on your Sky Q remote and select Settings, then Setup.

Select Preferences, then 'On Demand default download format', and choose SD.

 

There is also a known problem with new customers and those changing their account where there is a problem with downloading catchup etc. It seems you may need to call Sky and they should send a refresh signal to your viewing card which should sort the problem out

@les7264green assuming you have bought the Signature package catch up is free BUT only in SD quality not HD unless you are paying extra for the HD pack and it is dead easy to pick the wrong file to download.
