I have had Stream for a couple of years now, and for the record I love it. This is only a minor issue but I noticed recently that when I turn on using the Stream remote, which automatically turns on my LG OLED TV, that whereas previously the input signal that briefly appears on the screen said Amstrad, it now says SkyQ. My question is, does it matter, and eitherway can I change it?

It really doesn't matter what is called, Sky Q is probably a more accurate description. My LG OLED has always said Sky Q, but like others have suggested if it bothers you rename on the TV'S settings.

Rename it in the TV Input menu.

Re: TV input description
As above, that has been mentioned many a time on here.
My LG C5 did the same.
Go into your LG settings and replace the input name of the hdmi port the Sky Stream is attached to.
Sky Stream with two pucks via wifi (former Sky Q and Sky+ customer).
Sky Ultrafast + using Sky SR203 hub. Sky Mobile unlimited data. Sky Smart Home - Bundle Smart Home plan +
My good journey to Sky Stream from Sky Q. Click here to read

Re: TV input description
I'd imagine it's the LG set picking up an identifier from the Sky hardware over HDMI and then (mis)applying a label from an internal LG database which is occasionally updated: back in the day Amstrad manufactured Sky+ and Sky+ HD boxes.
BT Halo 3+ Ultrafast FTTP (500Mbs), BT Smart Hub 2
