Nope, that’s not possible with this box.

I’ve had the same problem since switching.

By when will this be implemented?

If you are already advertising the new paid box, I would expect that the scope of services is also correct, or at least matches the old box.

We don’t know that here…

I find it exciting that some people actually use it. I tried it, it just annoyed me 🙂

Some people probably won’t find any UHD channels either 😉 - I don’t know whether the HBBTV is related to the channels, but according to support, this functionality will be delivered later.

What also surprises me is that Windows and Apple assume that a lot of things STILL don’t work, but a box like this MUST work on all levels. I would never install a new Windows (only from SP 1, if at all).

Even with the HD box, I was annoyed that Swisscom didn’t offer HbbTV on all channels. I actually discovered on my UPC backup that there were more stations that offered it.

I haven’t had this illusion for a long time. This will simply not be available anywhere since its launch.

And consumers are not entirely innocent of the situation, as they want new devices or new features more and more quickly and cheaply.

But even there it is simply too slow and cumbersome compared to alternatives.

@roman70. I also have satellite TV. I have HBB TV on practically every channel. Even on the third channels of German television.

This provider doesn’t have anything else for this - there will be reasons why this isn’t at the top of the priority list and why it hasn’t yet been implemented in the UHD box.

Don’t get me wrong. I wouldn’t go back to UPC for a lot of money. This is only available as an emergency strap directly on the Smart TV with the free offer.

But the fact that HbbTV is missing on the UHD box is simply a step backwards compared to the HD box. What’s confusing is that you can even activate and deactivate whether the notification should be displayed in the menu, which also describes that the function is available via the extra button. OK, that’s an indication to me that it’s still to come, which is good again.

Yes, understandable, but it was clear from the beginning during the tests and also here in the forum that this would only come after the fact. Why, why and when, that’s what the developers know - I think the priority isn’t that high, or can you write to me about what you use this HbbTV for? I called it up once (on the normal box) and never again since then (well, I don’t need teletext either), but maybe an old man will understand why this is “missed”.

I would also prefer everything to always be implemented and sophisticated, but that almost doesn’t matter anymore today, regardless of whether it’s a PC, cell phone or TV.

I’m curious to see what it will be like if the Public Service is accepted. Maybe you’ll think back to today.

I was already there for the test.

Have you ever tested ARTE’s HbbTV offering? I think it’s great how structured you are about which content from the ARTE program you can access.

There is nowhere else that offers information as compressed, structured and at the same time up-to-date as teletext. And you don’t even have to put down the remote control and browse the second screen. The graphics are shit, which is partly made up for by HbbTV.

I also find it a bit annoying that little attention is paid to HbbTV and this option

is not activated, especially with the UHD box (main channel and third programs from ARD!). The
Classic teletext, on the other hand, is definitely a relic of contemporary broadcasting history. A
real specialist offering that no longer fits into the digital landscape. Just the graphics alone

Presentation hurts the eyes.

Of course, HbbTV (as with the earlier HD box) also has certain functions
not supported. From then on, access to live broadcasts, for example, or the links to the
Radio station. This should only work for users of digital cable providers or via satellite.

HbbTV will probably come if the tests are successful.

The fact that HbbTV receives so little attention is probably due to the low interest of customers.

I used to play around with it and then never used it again. And to be honest, I don’t miss it either.

Hbbtv is teletext prepared with internet content.
Teletext 2.0, so to speak.

Who else needs that????

There are still reasons for TXT content. Not everyone wants to stare at their mobile device,

when they watch television. I’m much more surprised that classic teletext is still available at all

turns on on TV 2.0. With HbbTV the content looks much more graphically appealing

I also find the options such as direct access to media libraries interesting.
