Not quite sure what you have been trying to do.

If you want to watch anything, or record anything, being transmitted over the cable network, the STB has to be on, not in standby.

A freak of it's setup mey sometimes mean that some signals get past the STB when it is in standby mode, depending on the STB model, but it's haphazard and not to be relied on.
