Sky main event bad quality
My sky sports main event has a poor quality picture and sound since Friday night. Other sky sports channels are fine

Re: Sky main event bad quality
Any on-screen error message.?
I'm also watching Forest v Liverpool, albeit on my mini box in HD and the picture is fine for me.

Watching the same. The picture is fuzzy and the commentary is a second behind. I don't have any message about fault or error

Re: Sky main event bad quality
No picture or sound issues here.
Perhaps at half time, if you haven’t done it already, it may be worth rebooting the main Sky Q box, then once that’s back up and running do the same with any mini boxes if applicable -
~ Using the remote put your main Sky Q box into standby
~ switch the box off at the plug
~ wait at least 30 seconds and then switch the box back on at the plug
~ follow the on screen instructions
~ when the screen goes blank and the blue Q stops pulsating wait another 30 seconds
~ press the 🏠 button
Allow 5-10 minutes before things hopefully revert back to normal.
