How to Access Sky Sports UHD

Hopefully someone offer some insight on this.

 

When I first got Sky Stream I had access to Sky Sports UHD channels on numbers 903 and 904 in addition to Sky Sports Main Event UHD and Sky Sports F1 UHD. These showed events from the Sky Sports channels in UHD and were easy to access.

 

For some reason Sky removed these from the EPG.

 

Tonght I am watching the Hundred on Sky Sports Cricket and I get no prompt for UHD.  The only prompt I see is to watch from the start.

 

It is available in UHD on Now TV so how are we supposed to see it on Sky Steam?

@EamonnOS  If you have the UHD/Atmos addon it's likely the UHD versions have swapped with the HD variants, so moved to the 400s rather than the 900s.

If you subscribe to the UHD add-on then the EPG should automatically switch so 401 becomes Main Event UHD, 407 becomes Sky Sports F1 UHD - these are the only 2 Sky Sports EPG channels that are broadcast in UHD.

Re: How to Access Sky Sports UHD

I am well aware of that.  What I am asking is how to I access the UHD broadcasts of for example the cricket earlier on this evening.  This was not on Main Event so there was no UHD coverage on the EPG.

 

As I said before, there was extra Sky Sports UHD channels on the EPG in the 900's in addition to Sky Sports Main Event and F1 UHD (both of which are on 401 and 407).

 

Before I would get a prompt for UHD if it was available but I haven't seen one for a long time.

 

The cricket this evening was in UHD on Now TV so how do I access these extra UHD streams on Sky Stream.

Re: How to Access Sky Sports UHD

Falkirk v St Mirren is currently on Sky Sports Football and I have no way of seeing it in UHD on Sky Stream even though it's available on Now TV in UHD.
