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

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?

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

This is the case with all newer TV sets and you can also adjust it, so the TV-Box and the TV set also have an independent power saving function.

My TV box goes into deep standby. I think that’s a good thing. But unfortunately it then no longer reacts to the infrared activation of the universal remote control, so I always have to switch it on using the original remote control. That’s annoying because it’s not easy and not elegant.

Now my question: Can I wake up the Swisscom Box 21 from deep standby with a LAN command?

Thank you.
