Is there any way you can change it to 1080p etc like you can do with the pucks ?

@Neil+Essex the TV has a native UHD screen someverything is displayed at 3840 X 2160 50 or 60p msterial streamed in HD is upscaled to to that automatically. The pucks can output at 1080p or 3840 but all they are doing is deinterlacing and uoscaling the incoming signal.

I was sitting down for my lunch and planning what I would have to shift before tomorrow's delivery. The doorbell went and there were the men with my Sky Glass! All set up and about to play with it a day early.

I have got the volcanic grey 55". Quite easy to set up on my own. I am now just trying to figure out the best picture settings. Sky Sports ME UHD is not saying UHD on the DOG. Is that normal?

@Carnoch04 ive got the same , maybe it's because it's not being broadcast in UHD

Looking good and sounding great! Perhaps not as good as my sound bar system but close enough to enjoy the clutter free area.Looking good and sounding great! Perhaps not as good as my sound bar system but close enough to enjoy the clutter free area.

After my earlier post, I have now watched an episode of Fire Country and I have to say it was amazing. The picture was sparklingly clear and the  sound was really good. I had thought that the sound wasn't quite as good as from my  my old soundbar system but I have re-thought that now and I am very happy with the sound from the Gen 2. So far, so good!

No, I found vivid too bright for my liking. I tweaked some of settings and I will seee how things go from here.

Have you turned on the bass boost in settings?

The bass is better (with boost on) than on my LG soundbar so I am happy.
