A lot of customers are not affected by the Live TV issue so that means it's not the sky stream software version that is causing issues for some customers
Sky seem to think differently.

Explain then why there are lots of customers who's Sky Stream Pucks that are on QS017 that are not having any issues watching live tv
If a device software version was the cause that would effect all customers
It's not unusual for some devices be effected that are connected with some broadband providers and others be not effected that are with a different broadband provider
Sometimes it's a fix with broadband provider that's required

There is no need to be rolling back all customers Sky Glass or Sky Stream to QS016
I did not have the issue with Live TV at any stage and some other customers also did not have this issue
From looking at the posts about live TV issue looks to me it's mostly effecting customers who have Sky Broadband
So that means it's a issue with broadband provider that effects some customers who have Sky Glass/Sky Stream
Do not be rolling back all customers who are on QS017 to QS016 when that is not the cause of the issue
A lot of customers are with different broadband providers and don't have the live tv issue with Sky Glass/Sky Stream when watching Live TV
@Paul+Boland Day 2 of Sky Stream yes Sky is my Broadband Provider do I have Live TV issues no If they rolled me back to Q16 would I notice a difference?

It's due to some broadband providers
Some customers are not effected in regards to watching live TV and Sky Stream Pucks are on QS017
I'm based in Republic of Ireland and my Sky Stream Pucks have been on QS017 since April 18th
We not had at any stage a issue with watching Live TV
My broadband is not with Sky it's Siro Fiber Broadband with Digiweb

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreClearly there's an issue in qs017 as the poster above mentioned the roll back has cured it - wether that's for all customers or not the roll back is for everyone - as mentioned above you won't notice much difference ......

Sky before they release a new device firmware should be testing with various broadband providers connections
Sometimes a fix can be done at broadband provider end
It's not unusual for some devices to have issues with some broadband providers and not have issues with a different broadband provider.

The rollback has already started to streaming pucks only (Glass TV remain unaffected) your post demanding them not to isn 't going to get you anywhere.

There are a lot of Sky Stream Pucks that are on.QS017 that are not having live TV issue
It's some broadband providers connections that's affected but not all

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out more@Paul+Boland You've repeated that in every response, the simple fact is the roll back is being done and won't be reverted, regardless.

Posted by a Superuser, not a Sky employee. Find out moreI get your frustration- seems to me like there maybe different hardware in some of the pucks (or broadband as you suggest) causing some to have the fault.
either way to identify the MAC addresses of all those affected / unaffected and only roll those back is a lot more difficult and painstaking than rolling all of the pucks back ......

I'm based in Republic of Ireland
I get the new software versions early
I will likely be getting QS018 on around May 15th
UK and Republic of Ireland even though will list same software version numbers are not exactly the same as they have slight differences due to software having different functionality to provide different apps/channels in each region.
Sky Ireland do the roll out of software versions for Republic of Ireland

I had QS017.005 at the beginning of the week.
It rolled back to QS016 mid week.
I checked this morning and it had rolled forward to QS017.005 again.
What is going on? Is QS017 buggier than QS016 or not?

Not had any issue with QS17, i assume rolling back to Q16 will cause the FF to stop working again!! I hope not.
