Sky Stream 4K crashing

Device set to 2160

Sound to Pcm

 

Device now crashes and  freezes or black screen several times a day now, either going from Apple TV or HBO Maxto a HD channel.

 

Turning off the mains, waiting 30 seconds then turning on sorts it, until I happens again...

 

On Fttp , getting 90Mb on ethernet speed test via Netflix...I'm suspicious that this new fibre isn't working consistently 100% , fed via underground cable but definitely via overheads to get into the area

Try exiting the app rather than going straight to the home page. Reason being the app is still open in the background and can cause issues.

That would essentially be full speed: pucks only have a 100Base-T ethernet chipset.

Yes I know, it's the Puck crashing that's getting very annoying seeing how much I pay Sky, so the Puck us on top of the  TV bench, but running it on 4k us it overheating? 

 

It's getting close to a call to sky but I don't want another customer refurb  device

Sky puck freezing and then no sound fiber at 910 there's definitely a software issue going on. Anyone else having the same problems

The answer is sign into Netflix on your tv the link has gone down from sky to Netflix if you do this it will work the sound and picture are a lot better they will fix it.

Via the back up / return button?

On most apps press back, back etc. until you quit the app. Netflix needs to "exit" in the menu.
