Hi @Snoopy001 

You are not trying to watch a UHD movie without the Monthly UHD subscription : are you?

Hi @Snoopy001 

If you are still referring to Sky Cinema then it's nothing to do with HD as this is standard and included for Cinema.

UltraHD (UHD) however is a different matter.

What exactly are you trying to watch?

Hi @Snoopy001 

You need to be sure.

You said you weren't watching Cinema in HD but this is standard unless you have deliberately selected SD.

If you do have the UHD subscription then check if your Q box is still set to 2160p
