I have just been handed a Humax 2000T YouView box, and I am trying to find out how to see Catchup TV. I had a look on Youtube and I saw a date line above the timeline. I don't seem to have that and I cannot see anywhere you to add it !
Could someone point me in the right direction ???
Admin edit: Misleading thread title changed.
It is indeed an HDR 2000T and it says on the side of the box,
Humax TV Portal, and the first line is 'Catch-Up' TV, followed by BBC IPlayer etc..
This from the description
500GB Hard Drive Disc up to 300 hours recording time
Record, pause and rewind live TV
Over 70 channels 4 in HD
Catch up TV (inc. BBC iPlayer) via Humax Portal
Record two programmes simultaneously whilst watching one

Always worth looking at the manual.

First thing I did, and I cannot see anything in it about Catch Up TV, so is it wrong on the box ?

It has iplayer and youtube but not ITV player, CH4 and CH5 OD. These are available on a Youview box.
Your HDR-2000T is a Freeview+ box not a Youview one (These have model numbers starting with DTR)

As it has iPlayer I would say that it is not wrong on the box and that it can claim to have catch-up. It's just not all the obvious catch-up which some would find desirable.
Yes it's the way 'Catch up tv ' in quotes that made me suspicious. I can get Iplayer and it works, but I can already get that on my TV and my Freesat, so no further ahead. I have to conclude it's my mistake and I shall send it back and get a "proper" Humax Youview box.
Thanks everyone for your inputs..
There are some differences between the YouView models which you might want to be aware of.
The earlier models, DTR-T1000 and to a lesser extent DTR-T1010, have a reputation for dying young, though YouView say the failure rate is within normal range.
Later models (DTR-T2000, DTR-T2100, DTR-T2110) seem to be more reliable.
