Q box remote control Input Source Control button. I pressed by mistake & don’t know how to cancel it

The recording that I was watching disappeared (black screen) and the TV was broadcasting a radio programme called TalkSport. The volume buttons were working.

Hi @Marybr 

Press the input button slowly multiple times and it should cycle through all the inputs on your TV set.

Stop when you get back to the Sky Q picture

I don't think there is a way to use the sky Q box remote control as I can cycle through the various input sources using the top right button but pressing the ok button doesn't select and change to the desired source. As I don't have my tv remote anymore I have to do it manually with the buttons at the lower right on my tv.

  • Useless sky boxes are...

Most TV's will automatically select the input as you cycle though.  For me, it will automatically select after a short pause.

 

The remote was only ever designed to send volume, power and AV functions if correctly configured.

Yeah it cycles for me automatically. I don't have to hit enter

 

If it didn't on my TV, I'd buy another remote for the TV.
