Sleep timer on FIOS Remote?

Is there a sleep timer function on the FIOS TV remote? Where?

You can certainly try.  The Verizon remote is designed to control your TV.   You must first press and release the TV key on the Verizon remote to get it to control just your tv.  You would then need to go into the menue of your TV, settings, perhaps, to find the control.
YOU MUST REMEMBER though, after you are finshed controlling just your TV, to go back to normal operations (controlling the verizon set top box) you must press and release the STB button on the remote control.  
Those keys, the STB, the TV, the AUX, and the DVD, are 'control' buttons that tell the remote control that you want to control that specific device.   In normal operations the set top box (STB) and the TV are programmed to go on & off at same time but only when the last control button that was presses was the STB button.  Also, when you are changing channels you are not changing the physical station on your TV, on most sets, you are just changing the signal coming from the verizon set top box going to the TV   SO the last control button that you want to have pressed is the STB button

  • Sleep Timer on Phillips Remots

    Is there a sleep timer function on the Phillips Remote?

    Not that I have ever seen. Here is a link to the web page for the remote controls, maybe you can find something there:

  • Sleep Timer Feature in iTunes via Remote iOS app

    I'm not sure this is the venue for this, but I would like the "Remote" iOS app (currently version 3.0.1) to let me set a "sleep timer" when I play a radio station on my iMac iTunes 11. I think this means iTunes must first have a "sleep timer" feature built-in before the Remote app can use it. There have been third-party "sleep timer" add-ons for YEARS, and yet Apple has not deemed it necessary to add the feature into iTunes. Unfortunately, these third-party add-ons cannot be accessed via the Remote app.
    Anyone here found a work-around?

    ok so the remote app is grouping all my album artists together under one Artist name: "various artists"
    need to find a way to stop this from happening

  • No Sleep Timer or scheduled time on/off!!!

    I'm a very new customer.  Just had phone/internet/tv service installed 2 days ago. 
    Not happy that there is no sleep time or scheduled time on and off on the STBs.  I used both these common features regularly when I was an Optimum customer. I realize I can use the sleep timer on my tv if I like to fall asleep with it on.  But why would Verizon in the very least have the box turn off on its own after say 6 hours of inactivity? 
    This is the 21st century Verizon!!! When I called I was told there were no plans to add these features.  COME ON VERIZON! GET WITH THE PROGRAM!

    Verizon will not be adding a sleep timer. The reason is that while adding a sleep timer to the stb is possible. It will only turn off the STB, not the tv. The TV would remain on. Now in and of itself, this doesnt sound like anything to worry about, until you consider that all the STB updates are done in the middle of the night (2-3am). Updates to the stb turn it on and off as it reboots and updates. This would cause the pic and sound on the TV to come back on in the middle of the night. Not good.
    In fact that is the reason for the "press menu to watch fios tv" message on the TV that was added with IMG 1.6.  Many people were turning off the STB and when the pic went blank on the screen, they thought the TV was off too. Then when the STB's updated in the middle of the night, suddenly people were hearing voices in the house. This frightened several people and Verizon responded by putting a message on the screen to let people know that the tv was still on.
    No, sleep timer on the STB will not happen. Its a bad idea. But the TV's do have a sleep timer. Now what Verizon should do is to add a sleep button to the remote to control the TV's sleep timer. But who knows if they will do that....
    Now while some people would be able to set additional devices to turn off with the STB. Most would not. And Verizon needs and should consider the masses, not the individuals.

  • Fios remote control and actor info

    When I push info on my remote control it only gives me a description of the movie or show, but it doesn't tell me who the artists are.  This was one feature I liked from my previous service which was Direct TV.  Does anyone know if such a feature is available on the FIOS remote control??

    How many times are you pressing the Info button? If you press it a second time you will usually get more information, and if the info will not fit completely in that display a third push of the info button will get you everything that FiOS has available. It is not always as complete as you would like but my experience is that it generally is now fairly good (much better than several years ago).

  • I'm ready to go back to Comcast just because of this lousy FIOS remote

    This FIOS remote for my HD box is driving me up a wall. I replaced the batteries with Duracells three times in the last month. The remote is so sluggish it's pathetic.Once I'm in a menu screen I find it almost impossible to get back to my tv screen.I hit the buttons and have to wait 3 seconds or more for a response. My box is only a feet from where I'm sitting and it's not blocked or behind glass. Any tips to get the remote to be faster? Thanks.

    No many other people have commented on the sluggish remotes also!
    Really? I have multiple FiOS remotes and have never had a problem with any of them. Sluggish or otherwise. I had a DVR that needed replacing because it was sluggish and an STB that died, but the remotes have been very solid. And of all the many threads about FiOS here or at DSLReports or AVS Forum, I can't recall seeing many "Bad Remote" threads. You should try another one. Though to switch providers because of a - possibly - bad remote seems a bit drastic, no?  

  • Cannot program tv/dvd combo 32" Insignia brand on fios remote

    I purchasesd a Best Buy brand  Insignia 32" tv/dvd combo.  I was able to program the fios remote for the tv portion, but was unable to program the dvd. I used the method for both the tv and the dvd where you enter 922, etc. and scroll.  The tv programming worked the first time, but the dvd programming failed after several attempts.  I pressed fast forward each time until the remote flashed that it was finished.  I tried the dvd programming with a dvd playing. Anybody have a solution to my problem?  Thanks in advance.

    I've got the same problem on my insignia. The problem is that tv/dvd  or tv/vcr  combo units are notoriously hard to get inexpensive remotes to work on. Its due to it being a combo unit. Combo units do not use "standard codes"  (most of the time). 
    Unfortunatly if you have already done the scan mode on the remote, it is not likely going to work with the verizon remote. Getting a generic universal remote and programming it to the verizon stb may be your only hope of getting everything on one remote

  • Sleep Timer Solution?

    I know that there is no Sleep Timer on the STB but my Vizio TV has that functionality.  Does anybody know a code to assign a key on myFiOS remote to control the Vizio Sleep Time? 
    Thanx

    there is no way to do so... you would have to use the original remote that came with your TV, in order to control that featuire of the TV...

  • FiOS Remote App on IPhone

    I have been trying to get the FiOS Remote app to work, but it keeps giving me problems with the sign on.  I don't think my sign on is the issue.
    My signon works for ...
    1. My FiOS app - in which I can pull my account information
    2. the Verizon mobile website - in which I can login and see all my information
    Within the My FiOS app when I try to manage my DVR, it launches the FiOS remote app.  This app won't let me sign in.  I constantly get the "Sign In Error" User ID or Password is invalid.  Please try again."
    I know this error is erroneous because of my ability to login everywhere else.
    Please advise on what I can do next.

    Hi, I know that app requires that you are connected to the wifi in your home and not on the iphone's 3g.  If you have verified that you are on the Actiontec WiFI (not a second router's wifi) and that your login is correct at all those sites, then you might need to email the dev from the apple store.  It gives you a link to email them there.

  • IPhone "FIOS remote" app update caused 'Invalid User Credential'

    Hey there,
    I recently updated my "FIOS remote" app on my iPhone and started getting 'Invalid User Credential' when checking my DVR in the app or the TV listings, also wasnt able to submit feedback.
    TheAbout screen says I'm using "Verizon FIOS mobile remote version 3.1.56 build number 16"
    I called Verizon support who helped me.
    The fix:  Open a browser and go to www.verizon.com/fiostv/web and logon. 
    Feedback in the app still doesn't work so I thought I'd post this here for others.  By the way, I think a 100 character limit is too small for feedback.

  • New DVR and FiOS remote tablet access

    I had to get a replacement DVR recently (bad hard drive). All works well except I can't access the DVR details or program the box through the fios remote app on my tablet. It worked fine for the old box. Also, on the app, the old box still shows up.
    I can log onto my account at Verizon. Com and I can program, see what's recorded on the new DVR  etc.., but again the old box shows up as the default DVR and I need to always choose the new one on a drop down box for things to work. Again, this is on the Verizon. Com website through the DVR manager.
    How do I get rid of the old box on the app. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app bit to no avail. Again, the problem is the app, which I would like to get to work with the new DVR.

    Ok, I found the problem on the FiOS app. There is a button that can switch which box doors the recording. So I now can see what I'd on the new DVR. But still, not sure how to delete the old box from the list

  • FIOS Remote app and available space on DVR

    On the newest version of the iphone FIO Remote DVR app I am no longer able to find the amount of space I have used/have available on the DVR.  Can this still be found on the new version?  If this feature has in fact been removed I will take your recommendation and contribute to the Idea Exchange.  Is there in fact a support channel for the app via phone, email or chat?

  • How to use a sleep timer with iTunes

    I just whipped up a little sleep timer for iTunes on request, and wanted to make it available to anyone who was looking for a way to listen to iTunes for a set amount of time and then have it paused (instead of having to make a playlist of a particular length).
    You can also have it shut down the computer or put it on stand by after it pauses iTunes.
    To download, go here:

    I'm having a similar issue: just redeemed a gift card for $25. I can see it in the upper right corner. Yet when I select a song to download, I am (again) asked to sign in and select a credit card to use. I don't want to use a credit card, I want to use the $25 card. This hasn't happened to me before now. If I click the 'redeem gift card' option in the credit card screen, it correctly says that that card has already been redeemed.

    I thought there might be a enter button once you set the size you want. That is mainly what I am asking if you have to enter or set the choice we make.
    So you are wondering how to make the size change "permanent" for a channel? If so, no, there is no way. If you change the channel the screen size reverts to normal on the new channel, and if you go back to the one where you had set the size it is back to normal there also.

  • NEEDED: An App That Reports WHO is Resetting the Sleep Timer!

    If you've ever tried troubleshooting the problem of your Mac not going to sleep after the period of inactivity that you have set in System Prefs, you know what I'm talking about. I've had this problem off & on for years and I have it again now. I cannot for the life of me determine what is causing it this time. If only there was an app that would do nothing but create a short log listing the processes that are resetting the sleep timer, this problem would be a no-brainer, and would save me and a lot of other people a great deal of time & frustration.
    So I'm appealing to some Mac programmer out there to set aside this weekend to come up with such a utility, and I'll buy you a steak dinner.

    You are correct that things would be easier if it was automatic. However, you will generally find that it is a program with a built-in scheduler, such as a backup program or a video recording program, that left some code behind even if the program was trashed or removed from the system.
    As far as the PDP11, I don't think I could afford the electricity to run one even if I had one. The PDP11 is the first computer I was exposed to in medical imaging. I list it because every once in a while it draws out the truth from folks like yourself when they admit to knowing what one is.
    I think the first disk drives that thing used were housed in recycled washing machines using the old motors to drive the spindles.
