Does Sky provide 3D content? I have a Sky Q box and can't find any 3D programs.

hi @dimebar
The only programme that cae up when I tried a voice search for 3D was a David Attenborough Nature programme.
It is vaguely possible that some films are still there but just not tagged - you would need to search for a film you want & check 'All Formats'
I know when Iooked for someone many months ago (probably over a year ago) there were only about 20 items showing.
It has, of course, been reducng as the number of people owning sets & watching 3D is reducing - TVS sets have not had 3D capability for a few years now - I upgraded from my 3D capable TV around 4 1/2 years ago (no new TVs had 3D then)
(I still have not parted with several of y 3D blu-rays for some strange reason)
It has always been niche & even for those who have 3D TVs very few actually watch it, so it is not really surprising it has become less & less available

I believe the last year 3D television sets were manufactured was 2016, and they never made the jump to UHD. There have been 3D-capable projectors since then though.

Thanks for your response.
When I used the 'voice search', that's all I could find as well.

My first 4K TV did actually support 3D (one reason I got it) but eventually I switched to OLED as I found the off-axis drop off too much & missed the deep blacks of my previous Plasma (even though it was one of the best non OLEDs)
