Sky Q software Q330 (63yh6dg) problem!

This software update seems to have introduced a new glitch within only Sky HD channels that I have never see before.  

All SD channels including BBC, ITV, Channel 4/5 HD do not suffer from this static/ pixels on the first 1 sec form channel change.  

 

The issue seem to be a decoding bug in the software.  


Had a Sky Eng and another external Eng come and test my dish and replaced a new LNB and the issues still there.


Sky must should investigate this!


 Sky users  on this forum please check Sky sports specifically channel Sky Tennis , F'ball and cricket and let me know if you see this issue. 

 

Please note this is intermittent and doesn't happen on every channel change. 

Thanks

No issues here (same version).

 

Assuming you've performed a power cycle on the box I suspect it's an issue with your box as opposed to a new bug.

Yes, I power cycled and the Eng used a new box that dialysed the same  issue.

Today, I even reset my Panasonic OLE to factory to eliminate and handshake glitch between Sky Q and my Tv.Also, I have tried  every HDMI port with anew certified cable  The static is still visible on All Sky HD channels. 

I also have new LNB installed and signal quality / strength are solid. 

As of today, I am now experiencing blackout on channel 403 and 409. The channel would come on for about 1 minute and then its black screen.

Sure, but it seems a local issue to your hardware/wiring - perhaps some interference?

 

I doubt it's the software update, but anything is possible.  (The forum would have many many posts if it was)

@Ajaja 

What did the Sky engineer say?

What have Sky said and done after you've reported this issue is still there?

I am on the same software update since 22 October and fine here.

Previous engineer said nothing. Walked away without a resolution. 

I have another coming tomorrow to see if they can look at the dish and cables.
