Re: Sky Q Red button - full screen

I have to say the organisation of the football on the red button is a complete mess. Just finding the game at the start was completely non intuitive and now after watching the first half on part of the screen it seems that at some point during the first half a link on the main menu comes up to watch the game.

hi @Neil-25 

 

I am not sure if this is what is needed - I don't watch the football - but I have just tried - I noticed athat the Watch Live below the thumbnail is actually a button & you may need to use the down arrow to highlight it & then press enter to actually Watch live

 

Edit : I trust you don;t have an old 'Touch' remote as the newer Red button menus don;t work too well with them

That gives you the part screen.  You have to wait until someone at Sky can be bothered to put the game on the main menu and select from there.

Yes as I said that works but only part way through the game.

Selecting the Watch Live 'button' (by tabbing down)  worked for me (although I still had to press the dismiss button to remove the right hand menu bar)

Fair comment @Rob000169 I was watching golf so really don't want to be pressing all those buttons 

If the same can be achieved by pressing the red button like @nigea99 posted pressing the dismiss button takes you to full screen then pressing the select button on the Sky Q remote allows you to select a different match.
