I am having problems with my sky Q box. It froze last night. This morning reset everything but now only have sound but no picture. Just a red circle going round and round. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi @Chris041958
Have you tried another reboot of your Q box?
To reboot press Standby on your Sky Q remote (if the box responds to the remote), and then switch off and unplug at the mains.
Wait at least 30 secs and then Plug back in and switch your Sky Q box back on at the mains.
Wait for the on screen instructions to disappear and the front led to turn Amber. Then wait for 30 secs before you press Home on your Sky Q remote or if this is not working press the standby button on the front of the Q box (Amber led)
note: some features may take up to 5 minutes to return.
