Rather think your post is the one that's biassed.
You are talking nonsense. I was trying to bring balance to the debate. I own both both boxes; do you? The main disadvantage of the HDR-FOX T2 at this point in time is that you cannot buy a new one. The main source is the reconditioned items offered by Humax Direct. They do benefit from a one year warranty but some of the problems that have been reported by users include hard drives with over 2500 reallocated disk sectors or a disk with over 5000 power on hours.
If users want the benefits of the custom firmware then they should buy an HDR-FOX T2 at this time (it isn't impossible that the custom firmware will appear on the HDR-2000T in the future but there are no guarantees). If they want a reliable PVR that will perform well from the moment that it is taken out of the packaging then they should consider a new HDR-2000T or a reconditioned HDR-FOX T2.
Nonsense ???
The OP asked about the difference between the HDR2000T and the Youview box. I merely pointed the OP to a list of features that the You view box lacked in comparison to the then current comparable box. When asked I pointed out that this list was based on the then current HDR Fox T2 and would not necessarily apply to the HDR2000T.
Simple example
The Youview box if compared directly to the HDR2000T would have positive entries for Front Panel Display and RF Loopthrough in SBY.
What is inaccurate about merely stating that the HDR2000T loses some capability compared to the older box ?
These are well documented elsewhere in this forum, there was no reason to take this thread so far off topic, nor make unwarranted accusations re bias.
Where did I say the OP should buy a HDR FOX T2 ?.
If you wish to start an on topic thread which has already been discussed at length feel free to do so.
