Why does my Sky Q only live pause for an hour?

Is this a setting I can change somewhere, or is this just standard?

I have TV on in the background working from home, but also have zoom calls, so I pause it. Sometimes if the call goes on for over an hour, the TV suddenly just unpauses! I've checked and there's plenty of free space on the box, so it can't be the fact that it's full. I'm sure my old Sky+ could pause for hours if I needed it to.

It gets bored. Only way round it is to record the programme.

My guess is that It will probably buffer the live pause footage into its memory rather than writing it to the hard drive.

Sky + only pauses for an hour. Still have using 4 of them 😎

Hmmm, maybe my memory is failing me then, I thought I used to pause things for AGES if I needed to go out shopping or whatever and would come back and just press play. But I might be wrong.

Exactly the same for me, I used to recall it paused for absolute ages.

Teams call over ran and had free practice on last Friday (F1) and it suddenly un paused, I'm sure something has changed.
