Reviewed by Mark Hodgkinson, 21st August 2012. After all the waiting the Humax YouView DTR-T1000 is certainly not a let-down but its definitely not all it should be. The sense that it is somewhat incomplete as a PVR is almost inexorable and, for a product that will mostly be sold on the back of its recording abilities, thats a fairly serious implication and one that YouView needs to attend to post-haste. Its by no means a poor PVR, just not one that currently justifies the price-tag. Where the DTR-T1000 scores heavily is in the integration of the on-demand content, which is simply unrivalled for a non-subscription box. More thought certainly seems to have gone in to that side of the functionality and tips the scales just in favour of the first YouView branded product. Its a Recommended, by the skin of its teeth, but we're expecting better - and soon.
