When first switching on I often can't get connected and a message comes up unknown source mode. This has only happened since I received a new sky q box, I have done all the usual things over and over, sometimes 5 times before I can get a connection, ( switching off at mains) I have changed the connection wire after speaking to one of your advisors. This problem isn't going away, I am fed up with pretty much every other day haven't to switch off and on.
i need help with this.

Which replacement HDMI cable did you use?
Is the box set to output 2160p / 10bit ?

Re: Source mode issues
You said you'd tried another cable?
Check your video settings for the other question.
