I have checked with Sky and they confirm I have the premium Netflix service.....in fact I can watch 4k and dolby vision content but doesn't look as sharp and it used to. I don't know if Netflix add extra compression to Sky customers?The OP stated in his original post “Coinsidently, my Netflix picture through TV app is also worse since Sky incorporated it to my "upgrade"
Clearly this is impossible and it was suggested that Sky may have downgraded his Netflix subscription from Premium to SD but this was never answered by the OP.
The V1 boxes can be set to these settings? So doesn't necessarily mean it's a V3.If you are able to set 2160p 10 bit then your box is HDR capable, so must be a V2 or V3.

Someone asked if I have HDR enabled on the TV.....yes I do.....i have changed the HDMI imput to enhanced which allows Sky to pick up 2160p 10 bit.
I have a new Sky box arriving tomorrow so keeping everything crossed.
Watching 4k HDR stuff on YouTube is astoundingly beautiful so would of thought Dolby Vision content on Netflix on UHD stuff on Sky would look similar but it really isn't anywhere near
You said earlier that you watched Netflix via the TV app, not the Sky app?I have checked with Sky and they confirm I have the premium Netflix service.....in fact I can watch 4k and dolby vision content but doesn't look as sharp and it used to.

Yeah I always use the TV apps and not sky apps.You said earlier that you watched Netflix via the TV app, not the Sky app?
You should always use the TV app as you will get DV and Atmos. Plus there is no way that Sky can "interfere" with the PQ of a TV app!
Do you view Sky and Netflix on the same TV picture preset? Is it possible that coincidentally (or even due to fiddling by the Sky installer), your TV settings were changed around the same time as you got Sky Q?
Called the "nocebo" I believe?It looks poorer to you because you want it to be. It's the opposite of the placebo 'improvement' effect.
Why on earth would I want it to look poorer? I enjoy Sky and the content we receive for what we pay is excellent value for money......i just assumed the move to Sky Q would give the same or better picture quality but it doesn't.It looks poorer to you because you want it to be.

Nice one!Called the "nocebo" I believe?
+1How can having any type of box plugged into an HDMI socket affect the built in Netflix performance. Unplug it and see if there is a difference.
PS. I've got a tenner that says dish/LNB change will make no difference to your internet supplied Netflix PQ. (or the Sky pic)

My Mrs normally doesn't even notice if we watch HD or SD but commented straight away after Q installed saying it wasn't as clear.
Had a new box delivered today which hasn't made a difference so I will take up Sky's offer getting another engineer over to swap dish and LMB.
This post was not a question, I was just adding to thread with my experience of issues.This was answered in your other near-identical posts.
I have the same skyQ box set to 2160 10 bit through the lg cx and sky ultimate which I think gives me premium Netflix though nothing shows the hdr logo when starting something that is supposed to be hdrWorth swapping out the box first before you cancel - I switched from Sky HD to Q a couple of years ago, and while I'm far from impressed with the overall functionality of it, I can't say in all fairness that I noticed any drop in PQ.
