So having started using my Pro Box again today ahead of the end of my Sky deal I decided to re-add the HD/4K add on but I'm immediately regretting it.
I tried TNT Ultimate (465) during the Bath v Sale match and I watched the last 15 minutes or so then just as it ended the picture froze. Tried changing channels but whilst TNT 1 HD worked both Ultimate channels were dead and then it froze completely when I tried changing to a Freeview over IP channel. Rebooted but still no luck so left it.
When watching the UCL build up via D+ on my Apple TV and thought I'd give it ago again and it was fine for about 10-15 minutes then again the picture froze and similar behaviour when changing channels. Rebooted again and Ultimate was working straight away but after approximately 18 minutes (I started a stopwatch this time) it froze so have given up for now. Across these attempts I have tried it over ethernet (twice) and wifi (once).
I don't think it is my broadband whilst I can only get fibre to cabinet I get ~73Mbps down and have had Sky Sports UHD streaming fine for 18 months indeed often with a second HD stream on my secondary TV along with iPads/laptops etc. and Ultimate has been fine streaming via Discovery+.
It isn't in my media cabinet yet so it out in 'open air' so should be getting plenty of airflow. It ran fine last night for 3 or so hours watching ITV4 HD so the issue certainly seems Ultimate related.
So is it my box dying/overheating or are there other issues with these boxes. I remember there were issues with Ultimate a while ago when I was last using it as my 'daily driver'?
