Hi @Sande 

Its best to change your Download preference to SD in Home - Settings - Setup - Preferences.

This needs to be done on the main Q box.
Then if you want to download any HD content from free to air channels (BBCHD ,ITVHD etc) you can select HD in the All formats tab of the content . This will change the format for that particular download only but still leave your format to SD in preferences.
