Netflix on Swisscom TV

Correct, like any other service (YouTube, Vimeo, etc.) you consume this via your internet bandwidth. With fiber optics you still have enough capacity. If the internet speed is no longer sufficient alongside Netflix, you would just have to choose a larger subscription.

Another reason: Netflix is ​​not a Swisscom service and the data is transmitted as an Internet stream. Like a file download.

I also have another question/observation. I don’t have DD 5.1 sound in the Netflix app on the SC TV box. This works easily in the app on the TV. Is that normal?

The Netflix app on the box is still brand new.
There will be future expansions.
And it is known that DD5.1 ​​is currently missing.

In my opinion this is not normal. So it is known that it doesn’t work. But releasing the app like this doesn’t belong in the normal category.

Is this somehow a short-term act either because of UPC or because of the holidays.

Now you actually have a holiday freeze and a lot of things that no longer work properly. Uhh?

Thank you for the answers. For me, the app on the box without DD5.1 ​​is unusable.

Although DD5.1 ​​is usually not great for Netflix.
