New look for Swisscom TV with Dark UI

For a more pleasant visual in a dark environment or for more contrast on the TV-Box, we are introducing a dark display on the TV-Box with the “Dark UI”. Under “Settings” to “General settings” to “Appearance”, you can now choose whether the user interface of Swisscom TV should be light or dark and thus customize the visual of your choice.

Thank you Black Mamba for your response.

Unless I’m mistaken, it is not possible to do the same on the new version of the software, i.e. OS4.

Under 3.2 no problem but it seems that this is not yet possible under OS4.

Best regards.

Hello everyone,

@Grireppo11 is indeed right. It is no longer possible to change the background color of the TV Guide under OS4.

Swisscom has taken this measure following numerous comments we have received on this subject in the past.

Have a nice weekend

Good morning,

Dark UI is the default TV Guide display mode under EOS 4.0 and is currently not modifiable

This default choice probably comes from its great success under EOS 3.2

Thanks @NathalieSI for the clarification

Happy Sunday

Hello @Thantehest25,

At the moment, Swisscom does not plan to implement an option to change the color in OS4.

Nice week

Hello, still no possibility to change the appearance under OS4? Thank you for your response.

How can I change the black background that appeared today back to a light background?

Hi you can’t, the OS4 version doesn’t provide for it, maybe in a next update

I had a clear display that suited me perfectly until yesterday and today I find myself with a dark background that hurts my eyes.

Will Swisscom pay for my glasses or how do I go back?

THANKS

Absolutely agree!!! I HATE this new display! And I tried everything to modify it. In vain.

And how can I now remove the thumbnails (which very often do not correspond to anything) in the list of recordings and schedules? Before the change I could do this easily, but so far I haven’t found anything yet…

On the other hand, I don’t like the black background… We must once again be given the opportunity to choose, otherwise we are going backwards.

This morning I must have written in the wrong place. Like many people, I don’t like this new background. In addition, I can no longer remove the thumbnails in the recording and programming lists. They take up too much space and often do not correspond to the program! How to eliminate them? I think I tried everything, but found nothing.

Can anyone help me?

Is there a new brochure available with instructions? If so, I would like to receive it…either on paper or as a PDF. THANKS.

I’ve had the same problem since yesterday… This display is really horrible and unreadable! The choice must absolutely be given.

It is SHAMEFUL not to have been given a choice!!! What is this dictatorship, Swisscom?!?!

The best is to wait for a 4.1 update or at worst get used to it but I will opt for the second solution because my eyes already hurt a lot… Swisscom will pay our opticians? 😂

I have the impression that under the “Modify color guide” section there will be a lot of messages, often negative (if there are people who are happy, please speak up!)…

For now two remarks:

• I wanted to do a search and so pressed the magnifying glass. The letters are first displayed in red, illegible on a black background, before becoming white… hence additional manipulations to erase the letter which is false.
  
  

    **Modification at 4 p.m.: the letters have turned blue...still illegible!**

• List of performers - I ended up finding it… You have to go to “Additional information” and especially not press because otherwise you arrive at another show (the next one? I don’t really know). There is a list of performers with photos, but in 90% of cases, there are no photos!
• The previous presentation (which recently had been greatly improved regarding distribution) was much clearer. On the left there was the name of the character and opposite the name of his interpreter… Now, you have to go through the whole list to find out who does what!
• Example: I often see an actor whose face I know, know what character he plays, but don’t know the name… If I want to know, I have to go through the entire list to find his name. Please return to the old presentation as soon as possible.. You are free to add photos of the actors that we could see by clicking on the name…

For the moment I’m still looking for how to eliminate the thumbnails in the list of recordings and programming to have more shows per “page”!
