Sky Stream Niggling Issues
I have been a Sky Stream user from the very beginning. (I think I signed up on the day the product was released). However, I have recently started being bugged by niggling issues that I have been unable to resolve. For instance:
- ‘Continue Watching’ only shows a few channels. Netflix and some Sky show up. BBC, ITV, C5 etc. all missing. Some days the ‘Continue Watching’ rail is just missing completely. Restarting the puck brings it back.
- If you watch something on Netflix and come back the following day to watch something else, you will need to restart the puck before you can view.
- My ‘Playlist’ choices recently vanished. All of them, just gone. Didn’t have many items on it, but a real timewaster to re-install.
- Sometimes when a streamed TV show is paused, selecting play will cause the playback to skip back to the very beginning. This happened during the last F1 race, and I had to fast forward through nearly two hours of video to get back to where I was. Very irritating.
I have two pucks. Both seem to behave identically. I presume that this is a software/firmware type glitch. I have tried all the reset options I can find online, but to no avail.
My contract is up with Sky, so I am a free agent, but my current set-up is perfect for me, except these silly things.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Mark.

Re: Sky Stream Niggling Issues
What you list are standard glitches that I also experience that have never been rectified from launch. It's odd because not everyone appears to be affected the same but reading posts many are.

@Pincomar At point 2, did you really mean restart the puck, or did you mean restart the Netflix app?

Point one - in the very rare occasions my CW rail has gone missing I press the home button which then reloads the main home page and returns the CW rail
