At the moment only some channels (CH, D, AT) are HbbTV capable. Swisscom has communicated that the channels will gradually be equipped with it, so this message from the RTL Group is unfortunately also logical at the moment. I don’t know where the problem lies, but I think this will now be gradually expanded, similar to the HD stuff

Hello.I also received the update yesterday evening. However, I don’t see a remote player in the DS Video to be able to play the video on the TV.
Do I have to set/activate anything else for this?
Thank you
If you play a film, then click at the bottom right (I think on TV), then you have a choice where you want to stream it. This also works on my Mac

The DS Video iPhone app has a television symbol with a “Play” arrow in it at the top right. Behind this are the possible destinations for the output. The TV2.0 box should have the name you gave it or something like “Living Room” or “Living Room” by default.
I was able to test the DLNA function yesterday, and I have the following to say about it.
Select a film from the NAS (Synology) using the app (BulbbleUPNP) and have it played from the Swisscom TV 2.0 box. I noticed that the box didn’t play any sound. After a while I found out that this was due to the sound format.
Film files in mkv format with an ac3 soundtrack worked without any problems, but mkv with a dts soundtrack did not.
Will DTS support still be available?

How exactly does it work with Synology DS-Photo so that I can view the pictures on the TV?
Possibly a variant, but it has to be a SmartTV and it has to be in the network like the NAS.
You can then play media (music, photos, films) directly from the NAS via the SmartTV and you don’t need a TV2.0 box.

Hello everyone,
First of all, thanks to Swisscom for the update. I think the right path has been taken. Thanks!
About my problem:
I can stream photos directly to the TV box via mobile phone or PC without any problems. Works great.
But it doesn’t work with videos.
The “wheel” turns and turns and turns.. Probably buffering..
No matter what format or file size (I tried 400MB/25min), the box doesn’t play any video.
I tried this with Win8.1 and about 10 different Andorid apps.
Am I doing something wrong here?
Thank you for your help.
Greeting
Marco
"We have further improved the ability to quickly switch between the two most recently watched channels. The “Recent” function now also supports the replay, recording and VoD functions."
Unfortunately, after updating the software, the Recents function no longer works reliably for us. You can switch between channels for a few minutes. After a few minutes, the recent function switches back and forth on the currently active station. With time-delayed television, for example, you switch back and forth between the time-delayed point and the current program.
Since the update, the program overview has also deteriorated: if, for example, you are looking for a previous program and scrolling through the channels in the past after pressing the tv guide button, the cursor suddenly jumps to the present.
A constant annoyance is the minimal volume; you have to set it almost to maximum on the TV-Box and the TV remote control to hear anything at all. In addition, there are volume changes between the program and advertising and abrupt volume changes within a program. If you change the source from TV-Box to other sources, e.g. DVD player, you will unexpectedly be “yelled at”. Please improve! It used to be better.
I can support the point that the basic volume used to be better (louder). Swisscom could fix this or reverse the adjustment. However, the argument is that the TV-Box delivers a standard volume and all other sources are “wrong” because they deliver levels that are much too high.
However, the difference in volume between programs and advertising has always existed. This is deliberately controlled by the broadcasters and cannot/may not be changed by Swisscom.
Regarding the other points criticized, I am convinced that there will be improvements in the future.
