Since I detest and hate this new menu like the plague…..
Did I understand it correctly? If I get an old TV box from the attic I have my old OS again where “real Swisscom TV” is instead of “junk TV menu” for corrupted ones??

Yes, but it has to be a TV2.0 box. So the square, white one with a black lid.

Swisscom TV1.0 boxes don’t work

My personal opinion is that there is no doubt that amateurs were at work here. It’s not usual for Swisscom to cheer us on with the Teleclub package because of the Corona crisis. Something must have gone wrong at the top of the administration. Yo, Black is no-go and out anyway, but if it was just white it would still be possible…
To find a film I have to do 1000 more clicks than before, no overview anymore… just rubbish!! Looks like Salt or Apple, or Netflix. User-unfriendly on all levels for me. The most important thing is the unnecessary and overview-obscuring preview image that should actually be OFF and can only be activated when necessary, e.g. for old people, the menu buttons are unnecessarily large, etc. etc.
In terms of quality, we have fallen back 15 years here.

I’ve been with Swisscom for half my life, and precisely because of the TV menu, which was better than the crap sold by the competition.
I have all the routers and TV boxes that have been around since the beginning.

I’m currently testing…

I connected the old TV box.
He’s got 3.1 on it so far… but it’s loading infinitely in the Home menu.
Is it perhaps updating to 3.2? Home somehow doesn’t come…

After 15 minutes there is still no home screen but everything else works and is white.
I’m now doing a good old reset, let’s see if I can cure the box of the Apple virus.

So…

After the reset, I installed the upgrade to 3.2 and now everything is back to how it was.

How can it be that a customer has to downgrade and use old hardware in order to receive the service the way they have always been used to and would still like to have it? This means high-quality operation. I don’t pay a cent for junk like salt or similar providers.

When I think about the older people mentioned in the thread, I say unproductive and at the same time outrageously inconsiderate.
It underlines the amateurish (almost underhanded) methods used here to sell “NEW MODERN SWISSCOM TV” as brilliant and good. It’s anything but Swisscom TV it’s definitely not.

I also read between the lines that black is because of energy consumption…
Anyone who claims this is certainly one of those who believes in the myth of renewable energy in the same way as in the “perpetuum mobile”.
That’s why I would like to ask you to take care of your salad and don’t tell fairy tales.
Anyone who can afford and wants a Swisscom TV package sees the annual -.75 centimes extra electricity costs as “peanuts”.
It’s not about costs but about amateurish work methods accompanied by ignorance and lack of experience in marketing and customer satisfaction.
I am convinced that this is an internal problem at Swisscom due to the crisis.

I can’t explain it any other way. I can only hope that “we’ll get the cap” and this menu will be removed.

PS: @POGO 1104 Hey thanks a lot, I’m back again with “SWISSCOM TV”.

@Herby what or where do you search and write when you’re looking for a solution to your TV problem with your provider? At the pharmacy?

Are you vegan with Blackscreen Menu? hahahahaha

8 days later

With the latest UHD TV boxes (and the latest version OS4) we can no longer find where the view of the TV Guide can be changed.

The current view is that the channels are listed on the left and you can scroll the individual programs to the right and left in time on the right.

We would like to have the view that was previously possible again: one channel is always displayed and you can scroll the individual programs from top to bottom in time (left and right you get to the next channels).

Does the view no longer exist or can we simply not find the setting for it?

That’s right, the service was canceled without a replacement without a price reduction.

We have all known this for a long time, you and your dissatisfied colleagues have periodically made your anger known to us over the months. Just let it be, very few people are interested.

But! It is of particular interest to long-standing Swisscom customers like me!

Those who don’t come here to protest against it know it from the previous provider as it is now, don’t have long enough Swisscom TV, don’t know this place at all or are giving “short shrift” because they’ve had enough of the Apple nerds and are leaving to another provider that offers the same thing for less money.
So please don’t say nonsense, thank you!

The new menu is frustratingly bad and the changes do nothing practical for me and apparently for many others too.
More clicks and the space-consuming preview image are completely wrong. The black is also meticulous. It’s been a few days now and 3.2 is definitely better! I’m glad I downgraded.

In reality, I hardly believe that the repetition of the individual’s protests against this “Apple Nerds Menu” may be irritating for @“Herby” #63 or you.
It seems more like you are trying to downplay reality with your sterile comments because it suits you and you can find your way.
I’m just an old Windows person and pay for a “NO APPLE environment” when it comes to TV and PC, only with Swisscom, other providers are out of the question!
Getting an Apple screen is not progress but recession! That’s why people continue to protest against the “Apple Nerds Menu” as often as possible, whether you like it or not!
