Ya last vid had software 13 I noticed I was on 14 now I see you are have you had any freezing with it? I did had to power of (via remote) and turn back on so wasn't a major issue as that sorted it. As of earlier today I'm on 15 which seems to have sorted the freezing (keep an eye out for it). 👍 ... Yeh cool thing with the playlists being personal too. Happy streaming!!
Great video Steve. Thanks for covering this. The personalised playlist feature is awesome as now can bookmark my own stuff and the wife now has her own playlist. Sky Q boxes were sent back a few days ago after using Sky Stream for just over a month. We both love it and was the best decision we ever made. Have a top wknd Steve 👍🏻
Great video mate, and pleased they introduced this update for personalised playlists. Your channel is great to watch and pleased its doing so well! Keep the good stuff coming!
I have a question regarding the playlist feature. My wife loves the soaps so my question is if she adds say emmerdale to the playlist, does it remember where she is? So if she gets a few days behind, does it remember which episode she needs to play first?
Love your reviews. Keep up the good work. Quick question, Can Sky Stream “record” live sports? Example: will it record an entire Formula 1 race which I can access anytime immediately after the broadcast ends? Or do I have to wait for Sky to add to the playlist after the broadcast
Love the content 👌🏻 Also on the playlist if you add any movies then scroll down there is a cast and crew section and from there you can click on any of the actors or directors and see what else they have been in or produced 👍🏻
Morning Steve, Sky Stream be introduced to our household today! Yippee! We had Virgin but no more. Mrs loved to record programs on Virgin, THIS is so much better, can’t believe our timing. Thank you for your vid on this. You make me look soooo knowledgeable 😂😂😂😂
just set this up, driving me mad, please help, new to this, when you come out of watching something it continues playing in current playing and when looking else where i can hear the sound of this current playing, how do i stop this, new to this device this evening, thanks for help,
@@stevemarruk I see , so no way round it, shame and thank you for such a quick reply, be good to be able to stop this or even the sound mutes in this part maybe in an future update,thanks again
@@stevemarruk you a star, thank you, one last thing, how about when you go to guide, it has the window of currently playing on bottom right, is this the same, has to be this way, thanks again for taking the time to help me (y)
Hi Steve been a sky customer for 23+ years and paying a fortune for multi room after watching your videos have convinced the wife and kids that sky stream is the way to go. Many thanks
I think this is a good effort, but I prefer the way on Apple TV I can switch profiles with the home button. What would be great is if you could link the apple tv profile to say your Disney or Netflix user so it would always choose the right one when you switched user. By itself Stream profiles aren't enough to tempt me back, multi profiles are really a table stakes. I didn't even see how you could restrict what was added to each profile. e.g. how do I have a kids profile?
Would you recommend Sky Stream over NOW. NOW offer great deals sometimes. I’m looking to get Sports, entertainment and cinema and the boost but I’m not sure if stream or NOW is better. Stream do offer 4K but it’s not for all the content. Which would you recommend
Multiroom UHD is a big plus for Stream. The SkyQ mini boxes are still restricted to 1080p output. This is a benefit to Stream where you’re not restricted to just one TV with UHD quality. I would potentially consider switching to Stream for this. If there was a UHD boost option on Now then it would be also be an attractive option for the flexibility.
Hi Steve I enjoy your video about SKY Stream I can not have SKY Stream because I have to pay extra money for broadband as every thing is so expensive I do have sky HD I been very happy with Sky HD and I like to record things my self I been with Sky TV since 1989 man alot has change over the years. When I first had Sky TV pade £2.99 for movies & sports what a jump what Sky Tv I have to pay now for the full package over £90.00 pounds a month very pricey now. Did you no Steve all SKY TV packages & SKY broadband there prices is going up again in April. So I mit cancel my SKY TV all to together as they are ripping people off to much money just to watch SKY TV. Thank You very much for the video Steve Please keep up the good work Take Care .
@@stevemarruk Hi Steve I phoned SKY TV they are raising there prices in April to all Sky Packages all so I had a email from SKY TV prices is going up. Thxs Steve
I have noticed the puck being extremely fast and smooth. Ironically I use the puck for watching Apple TV , Prime Video, Netflix, Disney , Spotify, all the on demand apps like BBC iplayer. But NOT sky stuff lol. So I stopped my subscription a few months back. And it's working like any other streaming box. But imo a better one as there's no ads and it's just a nice interface and I like the remote. The live TV doesn't work but you can browse the guide. But get this .. when I do want to watch Sky programming (at the moment last of us) all I do is use the NOW TV app that's on my android smart TV 😆 so that's the irony. Everything but sky on the steam puck and now on android. And the setup just seems to work for me.
So more update appearing and the puck is becoming smoother and better. But will it make you change?
As many as you like I think in the house so depending on how many rooms you
Have but it is linked to an address.
I got 2 sky stream box one my bedroom and one living room
Nice
Nice

How long do you have to watch a playlist program after it has aired? Can you skip the adverts like a sky Q recording?
1 year on. Have you still got it? Or did you switch fully to the ATV 4K with TV Launcher?
Still got it and the launcher
Great video Steve. Thanks for covering this. The personalised playlist feature is awesome as now can bookmark my own stuff and the wife now has her own playlist.

Thanks Lee and you too have a cracking weekend
Great video mate, and pleased they introduced this update for personalised playlists.
Your channel is great to watch and pleased its doing so well!
Keep the good stuff coming!
Thank you John that means so much
I have a question regarding the playlist feature. My wife loves the soaps so my question is if she adds say emmerdale to the playlist, does it remember where she is? So if she gets a few days behind, does it remember which episode she needs to play first?
Yes is does it shows a line under the program and plays where you left off as it will used ITV X
Love your reviews. Keep up the good work. Quick question, Can Sky Stream “record” live sports?
Example: will it record an entire Formula 1 race which I can access anytime immediately after the broadcast ends? Or do I have to wait for Sky to add to the playlist after the broadcast
No it doesn’t have a record function it has playlists so you watch anything pretty much when you want.
Thanks for the feed back.
Can individual episodes be deleted,so you just have your fav episodes of Friends as a example.
I don’t think so!
Hey Steve, Have you done a review on the LG tv.
I haven’t yet no I didn’t think anyone would want to see that?
Love the content 👌🏻
Also on the playlist if you add any movies then scroll down there is a cast and crew section and from there you can click on any of the actors or directors and see what else they have been in or produced 👍🏻
Nice that’s good feedback thank you

That’s just how it is. It’s so you can go back to it if need be. I would speak to a sky and see if they can stop this for you

You more

Sorry I’ve just check
The sky forums and apparently there isn’t a way to do this.
Hi Steve been a sky customer for 23+ years and paying a fortune for multi room after watching your videos have convinced the wife and kids that sky stream is the way to go.
Many thanks
Keep us posted
Hi Steve got 4 sky stream puks being delivered hopefully tomorrow thanks again 👍

I’m still sticking with Sky Q ,eventually we have ITVX ; about time Q at the bottom of the queue again. Excellent content Steve.
Aww no worries Mike thanks for the feedback buddy

Well depends really sky stream is easy but now TV is good deals but on a different steaming device.
in the 90s we all watched Friends in SD 😂
lol I know channel 4 I think?
@@stevemarruk in Poland it was on Polsat, and later I think 4 season on Canal+ with dubbing!
Cool
When you say all the channels from Sky Q are available on Sky Stream - does that include the shopping channels ?
Ah no idea I don’t do shopping on sky lol
Multiroom UHD is a big plus for Stream.
The SkyQ mini boxes are still restricted to 1080p output.

Very good point
I would like finally to check if sky q mini is able to connect with main box through VPN
Keep us posted
@@stevemarrukit won’t be anytime soon. Currently looking with a friend for a Freeview or a freesat box that can be controlled by Apple TV
You have less chapters in the movie than in description 😂
I forgot to do the chapters lol
I would say “profile”is better name than “playlist”
Playlist profile?
Sky stream is a dealbreaker for me until they have a recording feature
Not sure it ever will
My comment Steve - are u gonna ditch NOW tv? I had it on trial & did the maths = staying with sky stream plus otter streams
Nice
