Correct. If you want Netflix Premium (4K & Atmos on up to 4 screens) then you need to add the UHD pack to your Sky Q subscription.

al answer Re: netflix

no real answer I phoned sky I already have sky hd and Sky UHD and ultimate tv addon plus multi-room

but it seems I need Netflix 4k 4 screens which it seems can't be done but Disney channel Dolby atmos works fine just not Netflix which is a real bummer  if I cancel sky Netflix and have Netflix separate then its 3 times the price

and my internet is garbage but no fibre for at least 2 years also looking at sky mobile too

@keithyt1958 I'll escalate this to Sky for you as with the packages you have you should be getting Netflix premium ie 4 screens and in UHD I have similiar packages and it is working fine for me
