I worked it out on a few films at launch (The Martian, Spectre & MI:5 I think) and it seems to be around the 16-17mbps range.
I might be wrong but isn't that worse than 1080p Blu Ray?

I don't think you can do a straight compare as they use different CODECs.I might be wrong but isn't that worse than 1080p Blu Ray?
Recently had Sky Q installed, is there any easy way of jumping to the Tv guide with the remote?
Seems to run at about 85mbps for me, via Ethernet on a 200mbps connection. Bear in mind that, for reasons that escape me, Sky saw fit to equip the Q kit with fast ethernet rather than gigabit so there's a hardware limit of 100mbps regardless.
If I start a UHD film downloading, it lets me start watching in 5-10 seconds, which I presume is just long enough for it to work out that it's downloading faster than realtime so there's no problem.

Previous discussions in this part of the forum , worked it out that about 25Mb/s was needed for full uhd.
I'm assuming that not all the cameras are 4K with the footy? I was watching the pre match show thinking 'er, this is ****' but now the actual game is on it's noticeably better image quality.
Only the field cams are 4k, studio cams are HD.
Whoops I've broken it already
Was working fine and then I changed the Silver box to wired and now the mini seems to be getting artifacts / screen tearing.
Will change it back but for my understanding.
The Sky Silver box will use 2.4Ghz / ethernet to access online content / services.
It creates it's own 5Ghz network for the Mini to connect too and this is how media is streamed.
Now should the Mini show the SKYxxxx (Silver hotspot) network under connections or my personal network?
The mini also creates its own hotspot as part of the Sky mesh, correct?
My network is now pretty congested on the 5ghz and if possible I would like to disable the Mini hotspot. I don't have Sky broadband so I don't see what benefit the hotspot feature on the mini offers me and I assume you have to keep the hotspot on the Silver otherwise the mini won't connect.
I thought the current sky HD box used 5ghz already, why would it be removed.
He also said something about Sky Q becoming standard soon and I see you can now get new customer deals where the Q 1TB box only costs £10.
