Re: Sky Go on windows will not play any UHD channels despite listing them.
Honest to god, i recently changed my package, i had all moves, sports, UHD the lot, was costing me £186 pcm! downgraded, removed all movies channels as the movies wernt any good, still paying far to much, the fact that the mini box wont even play UHD content baffles me, upgrade the mini boxes and alllow us to watch what we pay for! im getting rid of sky 100% soon, its a waste of money with the price of EVERYTHING else ATM : /

@Princ3y In case your not aware yopu are not talking to Sky but to other customers, the mini boxes will never be upgared to UHD as they don't have the chips to do UHD, not can the main boxes do UHD to the minis, Sky already have upated boxes that support UHD, it's called Sky Stream.

And Go doesn't currently support UHD either.

No-one is paying for UHD on Mini boxes: they are a specification from 2015 when such content (and 4K television hardware) was much less common. Now that Sky (under Comcast management) has an online-only system capable of delivering UHD to multiple screens at the same address, it's very unlikely that Q will be 'upgraded' at all.
