Operation Manual

Settings: Device Management
Auto delete recordings
By default, your YouView box is set to delete
old recordings automatically when the hard
disk runs out of space. However, to prevent
this, use the arrow keys to select ON or OFF.
Software update
YouView will automatically update your
software overnight, if the box is left in
standby. You can use this setting to check
for updates manually.
Update on demand
players
Checking for updates to On Demand players
is performed automatically. However, you
can check for updates yourself by selecting
Check Now.
Reset your YouView box
Use this option if you want to reset your
YouView Box and restore it to its factory
settings. However, this will also reset your
PIN, any preferences you have set, delete
your postcode and all your current and
future recordings and reminders.
Note: Resetting your YouView box will delete
all your recordings. Make sure you have
watched all the programmes you want to
see before you reset your box.
Automatic standby time
This option controls when or if your YouView
box should go into standby mode. By
default, it will go into standby after 3 hours
if you have not interacted with it.
To change the default setting, press OK on
Automatic Standby Time and use the arrow
keys to select 2, 3, 4 or 12 hours.
Eco mode
Use this option to manage the energy
settings for your YouView box. By default
this is set to HIGH, the most energy efficient
mode. By changing this setting to LOW your
YouView box will only go into active standby,
which is less energy efficient but will reduce
the start up time.
RF loop through
If you wish to supply the aerial signal to
another device e.g. TV use this option to
enable the Antenna Out connection on your
YouView box. By default, this is set to OFF.
S/PDIF Audio format
YouView can be connected to a surround
sound system using the S/PDIF connection.
To change the audio format use the
or arrow to select SURROUND and press
OK.
