I've got it to fail on the TV's HDMI 4 so the problem is not specific to HDMI 1. I have been unable to find where to set specific 1080 settings on the TV's HDMI ports.

I'm also struggling to find how to set the DTR-T2100 into Maintenance Mode as I'm not sure where the -vol is on the top of the unit, if it actually has one. I can't find any reference to these buttons in the guide that came with the Youview box nor online. Might be trial and error with the direction buttons around the central OK button. Any ideas?

There's a brief thread about this in the BT Forum:

https://community.bt.com/t5/YouView-box/maintenance-mode-reset/m-p/1224739/highlight/true#M10987

If the responses there seem unclear (they do to me), you could post in that thread asking for clarification.

Thanks JamesB. Will need to post on there as doesn't work for me. Here's a response I've just posted on another forum:

Sound set to Stereo (was already).

Buttons round the OK on top of DTR-T1200 equate to:
Up - Go up a channel in the Guide.
Down - Go down a channel in the Guide.
Left - Go back in time in a channel in the Guide.
Right - Go forward in time in a channel in the Guide.

From another forum:
"I ran one on my G4 only last week, basically you power off at the switch on the back, then hold the down arrow down on the top of the unit while switching it back on, then just follow the on screen instructions."

Didn't work for me.

I tried the method for the older Youview box, substituting the down button for the -vol, but still no joy.

I have put my Yiewview box back to HDMI 1.
I have now hooked up my Panasonic DMR-EX75 (Freeview DVD recorder) to HDMI 4 to see if I can get this to fail as well, which could prove the problem to the TV.

I have posted the following on the BT Community Forum:

I have tried both methods on my new DTR-T2100 without success i.e.:

1) Holding the down button down whilst powering on.

2) Power on the YouView box using the rear panel power button. When the front power light is illuminated press the top power button firmly once and it will turn blue. Immediately press and hold the 'down' button. A message saying "Enter Maintenance Mode Y/N (Y: Power).

Please could you confirm which is the actual correct method I should be concentrating on and any advice on where I may be going wrong would be greatly appreciated.

Looking at a pic of the top of the box, I'd assume that it's the left button that equates to -vol. ICBW

It's the smaller buttons immediately surrounding the OK button that you need to be looking at. Not the larger buttons labelled "Back", "YouView", "power-on symbol", and "Record".

Also unsuccessful with the Left Arrow button. Will await correct procedure from the BT Community Forum.

Yes, I am using the directional buttons around the OK button.

What response did you get from the box during your attempts?

So you never got the on-screen display of the reset options?
