Press services on your Sky remote, then select Accessibility and highlight Increase Sky+ Contrast and Font Size. You can use the buttons on your Sky remote to access your TV guide, pause, play, rewind or fast-forward live TV or recordings, change your volume, record a programme, and more. The bad news is that to lower my carbon footprint I changed over to rechargeable batteries and there are no other normal batteries in the house, not even in other remotes and it had to happen today, of course, when the local shops are shut and I can't just nip out for some new Bunny electrocuters.

Not only is SDR performance better than it was at launch, but Sky has also improved its HDR output considerably. It still isn’t the last word in HDR performance but it does now deliver convincing and enjoyable HDR picture quality. In some ways even more frustrating, we've had several occasions when we've 'playlisted' a sporting event when watching live wasn't possible, only for the final few minutes to have been cut off. This isn't an issue we recall encountering with the traditional recording functionality of Sky Q. The 'Enhanced' titles show surprising levels of clarity and detail – you'd be forgiven for thinking older movies would struggle against newer, fresher content. Happy Gilmore is 25 years old yet Sky's 4K version is by no means disgraced. The same goes for It's a Wonderful Life. The Sky Q boxes essentially work not only as TV set-top boxes but also as hubs, delivering content to up to two separate Sky Q Mini boxes and two tablets simultaneously around your home. In total, Sky Q allows you to record six channels and watch a seventh simultaneously – if you can find enough screens. The TV’s coverage of the DCI-P3 colour gamut is now 79%, which is better but still not great. However the biggest improvements are to be seen in peak brightness. With Custom mode selected and local dimming enabled we saw peak brightness reach 804cd/m2 with a 25% patch of white in the centre of the screen and a still respectable 704cd/m2 with the standard 10% patch displayed, up from 439cd/m2 at launch.View Answer at http://www.sky.com/helpcentre/tv/sky-plus-hd/picture-problems/adjust-aspect-ratio-to-fit-TV-screen/ Mentioning as there seem to be two threads on Trust Pilot, one for sky in general and the one I have tioned specifically for sky Q.

You can use your Sky remote to control audio-visual equipment, such as home cinema surround sound systems. We don’t currently support sound bars, but the manufacturer codes below may work.This is the mode used for Blu-ray discs and some games consoles. If you've got a large HD TV, this is the best resolution. Now you're up and running, let's watch some TV. Not sure what to watch? The voice remote can help. To use it simply hold down the mic button on the top right-hand side of the touch remote and start speaking. Simple things such as the name of a TV show or TV channel will work but you can also search by sports, actors, directors or even for 'movies rated five stars'.
