Swisscom blue TV-Box schaltet automatisch aus: Das steckt dahinter

Hi @roku73

The time setting for standby mode is dynamic, or After internal clarification, making it variable for each customer will not be implemented, even if it would certainly be attractive for customers who use the feature heavily. Even if a feature like this may not sound like a lot of work, the necessary adjustments and complexity behind the scenes are quite high. The few customer requests for such a feature simply do not justify the necessary effort. So it stays as it is for now.

The times chosen (4 hours for TV, 12 hours for radio) correspond to what most customers are satisfied with. Of course, like everywhere else, you can’t always please everyone.

    Hi @AxH

    The point is not that you have to turn it off, but that you can, for those who want to use this feature. So it’s not a MUST, just a CAN.

    Basically, the idea is of course to turn off the device itself.

    When I watch the Sunday Crime News talk show with a time delay, the question always comes up as to whether I really want to continue watching. I have to confirm that

    Although the auto switch off is deactivated, the message appears after 4 hours: Device will switch off in 60 seconds or press OK.
    Pressing the OK button is of no use, the device is switched off

    Why does my Box 21 always switch on again at night and stay on?

    Fortunately, the TV B+O remains switched off.

    Do I have to replace the box or what should I do?

    From the point of view of energy consumption, it is best to consistently disconnect all devices from the power supply when not in use using a switchable power strip, thereby eliminating pointless standby consumption.

    While I am watching a recording, the image freezes and then the message “Unfortunately, no TV signal is currently available from this channel” appears; then a window appears with “No internet connection” check the wiring etc., then “try again”; then again " his TV-Box verifies the collegamento internet….well I was simply watching a recorded film……what does the collegamento internet have to do with it?

    @camillo21

    Swisscom’s blue TV requires a collegamento with Internet to function

    in case of a problem with the Internet the TV signal will not be available

    restart the TV-Box and the router (Internet-Box) if necessary

    then check that the collegamento with Internet is available

    and that blue TV from Swisscom is functional in Live TV and also with a recorded film

    if everything works but that the problematic directed film always stops at the same place

    in which case it means that the filmmaking of this particular film was flawed

    at the time it was broadcast and unfortunately it will not be possible to view it correctly

    The information above about the automatic switch-off of the Swisscom TV box helped me a lot. I have asked myself a few times whether and how this problem can be solved. Now I have made the right setting for me and it works perfectly. Thanks. Eric

    Hello @Revupul20

    A question was asked by @DanielD Please answer!

    In addition, don’t forget that if you interact with the remote control to change the channel or adjust the volume, for example, it cancels the 4-hour standby action.

    To summarize an automatic shutdown (4 hours) and only valid without touching the remote control.

    please specify the model of TV-Box installed

    1 - Swisscom Box 21 - IP1800

    2 - Swisscom Box - IP2000

    3 - TV-Box UHD - IP1400

    4 - TV-Box HD - IP1200

    Reset the TV-Box with a paperclip in the hole provided for this purpose

    in general it is located at the rear of the TV-Box

    Then test again

    If the problem persists, the TV-Box may be defective

    in this case request a standard change from the Swisscom Hotline

    if old model used (3 or 4) ask for a more recent one (1 or 2)

    Private customers: contact by hotline, chat, message | Swisscom
