Last evening, I turned on my TV and Box. The box's light went from green to white to green (as usual), the TV turned on, but it said no signal. I pushed OK on the remote and the box came on and worked fine. It happened again this morning. I used to be able to push the power button once, and the TV and box turned on. The issue only occurs when the box has been off for several hours (ie overnight). None of my settings changed and everything works fine once the box wakes up. I have done a reboot and have the box set to never go into sleep mode. Was there an update done that is causing this issue??

Hey there @Aptic,
Welcome to the Bell Community, and thank you for reaching out.
Can you clarify which TV receiver you are using?
It sounds like the receiver is not turning off at the same time as you turn the TV off, resulting in the receiver going into standby mode after a certain period of time. Can you try pairing your remote to the receiver again to see if that makes a difference?
Please keep us posted,

Merry Christmas to all, I have the following issue.
I just received this new 9500 receiver from Bell last week.
My system is a 9500 receiver, my Sharp Aquos is not a smart TV. We have connected a Google Chrome cast to the system. Every day when you turn the system for the first time I cannot get any signal from the receiver. We have to reboot the receiver. It goes through the process and then operates as intended. Any thoughts out there as to what I should/need to do? Thank you.
