Sky F1 sound

[Simon-Flibster]

Confirmed here that F1 UHD is only Stereo PCM not 5.1

However, I changed the settings on the SkyQ box to 1080p and once I flipped up and down a channel it switched to 5.1, but only 1080p.  But, I then changed the video signal back to 4k and it kept the 5.1 audio and gave me the 4k feed.  Just don't change the channel afterwards as it'll go back to stereo.

Strange as it all worked fine last year.

Yes it appears so. 

The level was very low so I guess it might have been a shock for anyone still watching it

Hello everyone.

Apologies for the delay getting a further comment on this from myself! 🙂

As some users seen (or heard 😅), the audio issues were resolved.  

I'm locking this thread down and marking this answer for easy viewing for other users but if anyone experiences anything similar in future, get a new thread started.  

Thanks again everyone for taking the time to flag this issue last week as this is what led to getting this fixed as quickly as it did 🙂
