I did check in case it was my router playing up but all was fine. The puck is hooked directly into the router via ethernet. I checked other devices at the time too and they were all fine. Ending up just streaming on the Sky Go app on the PS5.


Make sure WiFi is turned off on the puck's network settings.

Doubled checked this too 😞

 

I'm planning on factory resetting it later and see what happens.

 

I'll also attempt to capture a video of the original issue too at some point to provide to sky.

Re: Dolby Atmos audio drop out

Tonight I thought our puck was dead. Totally blank screen after turning it on. Then the light started flashing quickly. Not seen this before. Then it rebooted itself. Once back after a minute or so, we've watched TV all evening and there's not been a single picture or sound dropout. Watched live and on demand on 5, BBC, Ch4. Now watching The Exorcist on Sky Cinema on demand in UHD, HDR and Atmos. Still no dropouts. Has there been a software update to fix this issue?

@JamieLinds that sounds promising. What software version is it showing?

Re: Dolby Atmos audio drop out

@JamieLinds I've just watched 2 episodes of Penguin back to back in UHD and Atmos without a single audio drop... 

This is very positive 🙏🏻

Have they published any release notes? Or do they take a cloak and dagger approach and leave it the users to figure things out.

Re: Dolby Atmos audio drop out

I was hoping for no more drop outs with the update. But watched Penguin last night and drop out about 30 mins in, so I don't think it's fixed.😥

Watched a few episodes of The Day Of The Jackal and had a drop in each episode. Rewound to try & replicate, no joy though.
