Glitchy Picture
My Sky TV picture is glitchy/pixelated on all channels. I’ve already tried switching the Sky box off and back on and also restarted the internet, but the issue is still happening. Doesn't happen on Netflix or apps and sound isn't impacted. Defo Sky as happening on all TVs
This has been happening for the last few weeks and doesn't seem to be improving. Any help appreciated

Dish alignment... you'll need to call Sky for an engineer.

Your eyes will not be able to detect the small movements involved. Either way you'll need an engineer to check dish/cabling. No amount of resets will fix that...

If it's been there 15 years then it's likely it is misaligned, which can't bee seen with the naked eye, even 1mm move on the dish will misalign it and cause issues.
