Sky Q box reboots when watching Apple TV
Whenever we watch Apple TV+ on our main Sky Q box part way through the first programme each session our Sky Q box reboots at will.
We've tried resetting the App but it doesn't make any difference.
Reboot is as if the power has been turned off but the lights remain on while it's rebooting.
This doesn't happen with any other app.

Hi @WendyChat Try rebooting your router by removing the power cable for 30 sec then reconnect to reboot, then reboot your main SKYQ box by turning the power off at the socket for 30 sec then turn back on to reboot?

Re: Sky Q box reboots when watching Apple TV
I don't think this is the answer tbh. This is clearly an issue with how the app is working with the Sky Q box. This doesn't happen on any other streaming service or when we watch Apple TV on the PS5 - all are connected to the same router. This has not always happened - just Q recently become a problem. We tried moving the Sky Q box as we felt it might be overheating. I can't find anything on the internet about this so wonder why no one else is experiencing this issue. Would really welcome a tech view.

Re: Sky Q box reboots when watching Apple TV
Never had this problem on any of my Sky Q boxes..
But, in the Apple TV+ app settings, there is a video troubleshooting test. Might be worth going through that and checking what it shows and it may do some kind of quick reset.
Also, you could try from the settings within the AppleTV+ app, using the reset app option and clearing the search and play options..
Sky Stream with two pucks (former Sky Q and Sky+ customer).
Sky Ultrafast + using Sky SR203 hub. Sky Mobile unlimited data. Sky Protect smart tech kit tester.
My good journey to Sky Stream from Sky Q. Click here to read

Re: Sky Q box reboots when watching Apple TV
I have the same issue and when it resets itself and i go back to the programme, there is no voice track yet there is the music/effects track. You can hear the atmospherics but not the voices.
